Violence In Schools
... handgun if they wanted to (Glazer 14). The cause of violence can be blamed on many things but mainly on one thing is drugs and gangs. Now that more people are selling and buying drugs, people are making money to buy weapons. Gangs, since they came around violence have been increasing steadily. The spread of gangs and drugs has also been implicated in the increasing violence of school youths (Glazer 14). Experts have also said that most violent conflicts among school-age children can be traced back to long-simmering disputes (Apfel 21). Carrying guns and other weapons around schools is becoming more and more popular ...

contains two key aspects, the act is intentional or willful, and/or the act
resulted in physical injury. Accidental does not qualify as child abuse.

Physical abused children do not fit any type of stereotype. Abuse
occurs in all neighborhoods. Also, abusers come in all shapes, sizes, colors,
and sexes. There are many signs of physical abuse.

Causes Of Divorces
... the children. The father wants the children raised with his culture, while the mother wants them raised how she feels is right. This flares up arguments between the husband and wife, and also causes tension for the kids. Together this can led itself to a family splitting up due to cultural differences.
A major and unpleasant cause of divorce is unfaithfulness between spouses. When one spouse commits adultery it can easily and quickly tear up a marriage. This could be due to lack of trust, lost of interest, or the cheating spouse choosing the "new" love. Being in this situation for either partner is never eas ...

Prostitution: A Victimless Crime?
... prostitution with public health measures to control disease. Prostitution has lasted and survived every attack by civilization to end it. Some would say that for as long as people have both money and sexual frustration some would continue to pay others to satisfy them. Prostitution should be made legitament by saving taxpayers money form not having to inforce the laws, creating red light districts and regulation.
One could argue that as for as crimes go prostitution is a victimless crime, but others would say that it is a matter of public safety and disease control. Would harsher laws end prostitution or resu ...

present 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This would not

The movie Disclosure portrays an act of sexual harassment in the

Study Techniques That Will Help A Student Learn More Efficiently
... Instead of remote learning, or straight memorization, students should take the time to learn the material. Students need to spread his or her studies out to where he or she takes the time to read ahead, break the material down, and then study the material. He or she needs to use time wisely when doing assignments. This will help the student to get ahead of his or her studies. When the student has extra time on his or her hands, he or she might want to converse with teacher about how his or her grades are doing, and this is a direct effect of their study techniques. These examples are study techniques that ca ...

Domestic Violence
... doesn't only physically harm
a woman; it also mentally harms the woman and any children involved. The third
reason is that help is available.
A man who physically abuses a woman can not be stopped unless he is
given counseling, jailed, or killed. He will continue to abuse until he is
stopped, and ignoring the problem will definitely not help it go away. Husbands
and boyfriends send more women to the hospital each year than strangers do
(Campbell 95). The US Surgeon General reports that, “domestic violence is the
leading cause of injury to American women between the ages of fifteen and forty-
four” (Brigg ...

Why Corporal Punishment Is No Longer Justifiable In Discipling Children
... ups had little respect for the
children, making them do slave labor at home, and display best behavior in
school. When looking back, I can see why corporal punishment was allowed to
be used.
The year is 1991, the students are all rebels without a cause... If
corporal punishment was used today, it would fail. Kids no longer are
expected to act like they are in church for their complete childhood. If a
child is caught talking in class, the teacher does not whip or beat them
like years ago, instead: writing the childs name on the board, or giving
them detention does the job. Strange enough, most of the children in ...

Happiness
... tells a joke. If one finds
the joke funny, they laugh. This condition of happiness is the most temporary
one, for it only lasts a moment. No one will be affected deeply into their
emotions by a joke. It is more like a comical relief.
Another way of happiness is when something good happens to someone.
Maybe getting a good grade on a test or getting a raise at work. This kind of
happiness usually comes from personal accomplishment. One will be happy if they
know they did something good. They do not necessarily have to be rewarded to
feel happy. For example, some people find happiness in just living a good li ...
