- 733: IVF: A Medical Breakthrough or A Medical Burden?
- ... What is considered to be natural to one person, may be just the opposite in the eyes of another. For example, suppose a woman is in the delivery room, about to give birth to her child. However, due to complications, doctors recommend that they deliver the baby by cesarean section. To some, this may seem natural because it is the application of our intelligence to overcome an adverse situation. However, a ... of which are asked to decide whether or not IVF is a natural means of conception. Of course, IVF may seem unnatural to a fertile woman who is physically and biologically able to carry a child without medical assistance, because she is not in the situation where her motherhood relies on medical technology. However, in the eyes of an infertile woman, IVF is one of the closest natural means by which she may conceive a child.

- ... s consent for all forms of birth control. Even though there are some conflicts with it, I think family planning seems like the best to solve the world’s over population problem. China’s one child policy is generally denounced by a majority of world nations. Many countries feel that it is not right to restrict the number of children a person can have. They believe it is a person’s freedom to choose how many kids they want. China hopes for their fertility rate to be 1 child per woman instead of the 1.85 rate they currently have. Even though China’s policy is very controversial, China thinks this is what they need to do in order for their population growth to ... age at first birth followed the delay of the marriage. In developing countries, according to the Population Council’s Bongaarts, an average 2.5 year delay in the age when a woman bears her first child would reduce population growth by over 10 percent. This is also an effective way to slow population rates down. There is a great need for countries to attempt to limit expanding populations. Many people ...
- 735: Philosophy - Abortion Rectitude
- ... to terminate her pregnancy as she so chooses. Tooley implies that until the fetus reaches the age of about three weeks outside the uterus, it does not show signs of wanting life. Only when the child shows signs of desiring life should the child be given a right to life. These arguments are controversial to say the least. However, they contain a rational opinion of when an organism should be given a right to life. Mary Anne Warren also ... closely examined. First of all, the fetus is never older than its mother whereas the violinist may be. The "right to life abortionists" focus on the premise that you are taking the life of a child who has its whole life ahead of it. The violinist may have already lived a fulfilling life. Secondly, the woman was involuntarily hooked to the violinist whereas (in this example) a pregnant woman generally ...
- 736: The Effects of television Violence on Children
- ... time again that aggression and television viewing do go hand in hand. The television violence can cause actual violence in a number of ways. After viewing television violence the world becomes flat in comparison. The child needs to create violence to keep himself satisfied. Also the children find the violent characters on television fun to imitate. Children do imitate the behavior of models such as those portrayed in television, movies, etc ... widely seen lately with the adventures of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Young children cannot seem to get enough of these fictional characters and will portray them often. Not only does television violence affect the child’s youth, but it can also affect his or her adulthood.

- 738: Death Perspectives From Dylan
- ... comparisons that offer a new and contented perspective of death and reverences it as an integral, inescapable part of the natural cycle. Dylan Thomas begins "A Refusal to Mourn the Death, by Fire, of a Child in London" by setting up a motif of atavism that prevails throughout the rest of the poem. He uses terms that refer to creation as he describes a darkness as "mankind-making," "bird-" "beast-" and ... tears, in the least. Thomas describes his tears as salty because bemoaning death accomplishes nothing. Thomas refuses to weep unproductive tears over something he cannot reverse or overturn. Instead, Thomas illustrates the death of the child as majestic in the third stanza. Thomas not only believes that death is inescapable and ultimate, but he also describes it in such a way that it is not the tragic ending that society considers it. In the poem, Thomas refuses to "murder the mankind" or the humanity of her going with the "grave truth" or certainty of her death, as the child has escaped the wickedness and corruption of the world that caused her fate. Thomas's refusal to "blaspheme" nature's course because the child's death has brought release and peace, and it would ...
- 739: Population Control in China
- Population Control in China After I came to the Untied States, I found out that a lot of American people disagreed with the Chinese government allowing Chinese people to have only one child in each family. However, in fact, for Chinese people there is nothing wrong with it. I am the only child in my family. It is the same way for all of my friends in China. That seems very normal to me or to any family in China, and most Chinese people even think that it is a right decision to allow only one child per family. Because most people didn't have any kind of knowledge about birth control, they continued to have babies after the birth of their first child. From 1950 to 1980, the increase in ...

- ... on is the beauty of music. Music is such an important part of my life that I would dread to have a life without it. The movie "Love is Never Silent " consisted of a hearing child left alone with deaf parents when her younger hearing brother dies. This movie shows how she was her parents sole link to the hearing world. It also showed how her parents were looked at by ... once again flowing between them. This showed what kind of hardships deaf people face not only in the outside world but inside themselves. The movie "A Bridge to Silence" was about the opposite- a deaf child with hearing parents. The mother blamed herself for her daughters deafness due to a case of spinal meningitis the daughter had contracted as a child. The mother never fully accepts the daughter and it shows the heartache of a deaf girl growing up trying to have her mother accept her for who and what she is. The daughter was ...
