Teaching Respect To Children
.... someone else, that person is more likely to
respect them back; causing a chain reaction.
Right now, not enough parents are teaching their kids respect and
this causes violence, crimes, and can even lead to drug use. It is easy to
see how these problems can be easily solved or would be nonexistent if
their was respect. Violence would not be a problem, because no one would
fight if they had respect for the other person. The next problem is crime.
Nobody is going to steal or vandalize someone's proper .....

Sexual Abuse And Children
.... you or
someone you love then you're wrong. There are 300,000 to 500,000 reported
every year in the united states and experts say “for each case that is
reported there are two more that aren't.” Why in Virginia Beach alone in
1993 the social services office counted 6,613 sexual abuse cases reported.
The reason only a third of the cases are reported because most of
the time the abuser is a friend or family member. In fact the book Child
Abuse: an american epidemic says “only 28% of child molestors are
stra .....

Stereotyping
.... a stereotype attitude would be to assume that all Japanese
boys are good at math. It is quite obvious that this is not always so.
Knowing this, does that mean that stereotyping is “wrong”? When is it
considered “correct”, if ever? We are provided with prerogative to think
however we like, but is it correct in assuming that stereotyping is immoral
and unfair? This topic will be more discriptive through the proceeding.
Stereotyping
As it was mentioned in the Introduction, stereotyping is relative

How Cultures Affect Teenagers
.... 7. These
arranged marriage ceremonies are a custom to their culture. When they reach
their teenage years they may not have mush education and not a lot of hope
of reaching their highest goals. This may happen because they will be
confide to their marriage and paying respect to their elders. This boy
experiences traditional culture and the other culture is modern. Modern
culture incorporated with economy has made child marriage irrelevant to
those who have the background of modern culture.

Domestic Violence
.... but this is my knowledge and understanding from first hand
experience.
Growing up as a child, I experienced this first hand. It didn't
have as dramatic an effect as it may have on other children. There are
three general ways in which a child may be affected, but are a wide variety
of situations. I can't predict the future so I cannot tell which one I will
fall into, but I am hoping it is the second way. Firstly, the child may
take on the psychological effect that it is OK to do since one has seen

The Need For An Anglo American Lifestyle
.... into life in the Manzannar
internment camp by making their surroundings as they were in Japan,
creating lush gardens filled with cactus plants and rock gardens which
resembled Mount Fujiyama (100).
Both the Cubans and the Japanese were deemed less than American.
The Cubans were acceptable as long as they did not assert their hotness,
nor their Cubanness on the street under a shady palm tree(136), or hold a
prominent position in Anglo Miami. The Japanese Americans were bearable as
long as they were loc .....

The Pressures Of Today's Youth
.... Both essay's rely on self respect to relate to the
rites of passage in today's society.
Peer pressure is a very major dilemma in that friends or peers try
to get a person to do what they, the majority, like and not what the
individual likes. Peers create some of the so-called rites, then when
one follows more start to follow, then it becomes the scenario of the
lemmings following their leader off of the face of a cliff.
Some teens think that drinking is a passage into adulthood because
the law st .....

present. If this information is printed , How will it make the person feel?
In most situations the person's life being exposed would feel he is being
treated unfairly. However, by not reporting such information could elude
the voters knowledge of the presidential candidate. A journalist is
required to report, it is there job.
When making implications about any person, the facts must be known
without a doubt. The uselessness of hearsay inf .....

The Role Of Women In India And South America
.... very disturbing. According to a newspaper in New
Delhi, every 6 minutes, a crime is committed against women. Every 7
minutes a woman is raped, every 45 minutes a woman is kidnapped or abducted.
335 of women are subjected to cruelty. 17 dowry deaths are reported every
day. In the reading done this semester it is shown that the treatment of
women in India is not often understood.
"The Shroud", written by Prem Chand, is a perfect example on how women are
disrespected by their husbands. The women in t .....

Smokers: The Right To Pursuit Of Happiness
.... no
comfortable seats for us to sit in. We either sit on the steps or the stone
benches. What happened to our right to the pursuit of happiness? Why should
we be forced outside just to smoke a cigarette. It is not right. We should
be able to enjoy a cigarette in comfort. We are entitled to the same
treatment as every other student here at Albright. We are entitled to a
comfortable chair when we want to sit down. It doesn't matter if we want to
smoke a cigarette while we're sitting.

the meetings are not held very close to them
Thus, information about malnutrition and poverty in the developing
countries should be spread more vigorously if we are aiming at an equal
world. So one should think twice before turning one's back to the next aid
encountered.

the household and the ancestors, usually our great grand parents . It's
utmost significance to go through the customary Chinese New Years
traditions: house cleaning, decorations, lots of food, and more for their
celebration.
Chinese New Year is a time of special celebration and joy;
therefore many old customs and performances are incorporated into the
festival celebrations and competitions held on Chinese New Years. The most

Trans-racial Adoption
.... frowned upon by many people.
The debate over transracial adoption is whether or not it is in the best
interest of the child. The problem in today's society is that foster care
is preferred over transracial adoption. The reason being the children and
youth services would rather put a black child in foster homes of that race
instead of letting a white couple adopt it because they are white. They
believe that putting a black child in white family would culturally damage
that child, that they would grow u .....

Argumentative Essay: Should Women Be Allowd To Go Topless In Public
.... person's appearance. This is
only natural as the only thing that we know about this stranger is what we see
of them the first time we meet. We all are aware of the sayings
"Preppy","Jockish","Skater","Sluty" etc. This final saying, “Sluty” is
interpreted by 90 percent of North Americans as a tight skirt and tight tank top
which happens to be the usual ensemble of a prostitute. This first impression
of a girl in nothing but a skirt and a bare chest will no doubt elevate to the
new version of a “Slut” a .....

Gangs: Until There's An Answer
.... that unless the root causes of gang formation are
effectively addressed, and gang access to illegally obtained firearms is
nullified, gang violence will continue. The claim was presented in such a
fashion that, while based on widely accepted ideas, an appeal to the
emotions through sympathy for the injured children was also applied. To
justify their claim, statistics such as 28 children under the age of 10
were murdered between 1987 and 1994, 95% of which were murdered with
firearms and over half the mur .....
