.... pregnancy has increased tremendously compared to other countries. Also 13% of all births are to teenagers. Statistics have shown that 85% of all teenage pregnancies are unplanned. . With that high rate 25% of teenage mothers will have a second child within two years after their first child’s birth (Teen Pregnancy, internet). The general rule is: the younger the mother, the greater the risk of complications for both the mother and child. With all of the preventions of pregnancy how could so many teen ladies become pregnant? What was their reasoning and how did it affect their life? Through the National Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy it enabled one to learn why so ....

.... of scientific community agrees that "the research findings of the NIMH publication support conclusion of a causal relationship between television violence and aggressive behavior" (Wurtzel, 21), why is it that "the Saturday morning "kid vid ghetto" is the most violent time on T.V." (Methvin, 49), and that "despite slight variations over the past decade, the amount of violence on television has remained at consistently high levels" (Wurtzel, 23)? Why is it that, like the tobacco companies twenty years ago, the present day television broadcasting companies refuse to consent that violent films and programming can and do have harmful effects on their viewers (Rowland, 280 ....

.... absurdity of man, who kills so easily and so violently, and once a year sends out cards praying for Peace on Earth." (Coats, 13) We need to realize, that in today's society, animals deserve just as much freedom as humans have. Although we are larger in size, we are not superior in status. Animals have been around on the earth for as long as humans, if not longer. Animals play an important role in today's society whether or not we choose to admit it. Like a newborn baby learning to play with others we must learn to share the planet with animals. One of the main issues being disputed today with animal right, is SUPERIORITY. Over 7 Billion animals die at the hands of h ....

.... character trait that will best identify a person. Humans are extremely complex. Most of us spend our entire lives trying to figure one another out. (This is especially true when attempting to figure out females.) Clues can be found anywhere. The books a person reads, the movies they watch and the games they play all reveal little bits of their character. It is a fair comment though that the most revealing character trait a person has is their sense of humor. Few things are as distinguishable and noticeable as humor. Laughs echo throughout rooms and they are as unique as snowflakes. Jokes have been told and retold for centuries by men and women of all races. W ....

.... This, surely, must have been torture, but, hopefully, most immigrants found the dreadful trip to be worth the freedom at the other end. Ellis Island, also, was far from sanitary. The people would break down into lines, and walk by a doctor, trying to hide any physical problems. Children over two had to be able to walk by themselves. If the doctor noticed anything wrong he would use a piece of chalk to show the person required further inspection. If, this was indeed the case, the person would be set aside in a cage. Another test was that of sanity. An interpreter would ask each person a few questions just to find a sensible answer to test mental stability ....

When you censor music that could be considered a violation of constitutional rights. Many states have introduced a “harmful to minors law”, this is supposed to protect children from explicated lyrics and recordings with no artistic value. This law is for songs like Ice-T’s Cop Killer, which is supposed to be the reason kids kill cops. Although, the Arts Censorship Project says, “ no direct link between anti-social behavior and expo ....

.... the house also and young boys would help in the farm by bailing hay and loading wagons with crops. Since trying to capture the native Indians, the Arawaks and Caribs, failed (Small-Pox had killed them), the Europeans said out to capture African slaves. They were shipped from Africa by the Europeans in what was called The Triangular Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. This was an organized route where Europeans would travel to Africa bringing manufactured goods, capture Africans and take them to the Caribbean, and then take the crops and goods and bring them back to Europe. The African people, in order to communicate invented a language that was a mixture of all the African l ....

.... I know that mine for one is running quite thin. I am traveling by myself and aiming to get home for a big football game that is less than an hour away. I would greatly appreciate to be able to see the kick-off of the game but it doesn't look promising. I get frustrated easily and so I definitely don't have any patience. Today I am running behind, so mine is worn thin. But putting my needs aside, I tried to judge others and see what kind of patience they have in store for themselves. I happen to glance over at a cowboy and his father in the truck next to me. I glance over as they watch the lane to their left move. They seem to wish that it is the trailer they ....
