Does access to condoms or birth control pills lead to irresponsible, dangerous, or bad behavior?

     Does access to condoms or birth control pills lead to irresponsible, dangerous, or bad behavior? Honestly, I would have to think this thoroughly instead of researching about condoms and birth control pills effect on modern society. I think that condoms or birth control pills are the reasons for teen sex and pregnancy. Condoms and birth control pills, in my opinion, is there so that those, who chose to have teen sex, make the right chose to at least take a safer course. It is possible that condoms and birth control pills can stimulate ones mind to take this sexual action, but there are those who still take that path without having to be stimulated by a "sexual item". In fact, these items are just 'symbols' to take a safe course then to go around having sex getting and spreading sexually transmitted disease (STD).


     Many adults are saying that condoms and birth control pills are the reasons that young teens are having sex at such a young age, but I think this is only an excuse for them. Adults needed a reason for higher rates of teen sex and pregnancy, and condoms and birth control pills were right in front of them. In my opinion, there are more bigger and more stimulating factors to teen sex than condoms and birth control pills. Movies with sexual parts, novels, social internet websites, and many more can also cause teens to chose to have sex at a young age. In fact, these thing could be happening because teens' parents have not spoken to their children about the 'adult life', creating a curiosity to a young brain seeking for answers, and they cannot openly ask their parents about it since parents cannot even openly talk about it to their own children.

      I do not support those who think teen pregnancy is good, but I do not think it is wise for people to say that condoms and birth control pills stimulate irresponsible, dangerous, or bad behaviors. I think some, not all, but some of these things could be fixed with communications between parents and children in this modern generation where parents and their child do not speak to each other as much as they are supposed to.

SHOULD THE DEATH PENALTY BE USED TO PUNISH VIOLENT CRIMINALS?

     So the this time the question is, 'Should the death penalty be used to punish violent criminals?'. I think that criminal should not have death sentences. Many believe that giving life sentences are the only way to punish a person who has killed another person, but would not that just be the same thing? Would not killing a criminal also make us the same level as that criminal? The only difference between us is that they did it out of their own psychotic behaviours and that we are doing it out of our own selfish beliefs of doing a good deed. Either way, that would not change the fact that a person, even with crimes, is being killed with our own hands. Of course many will say they deserve it, but there are other ways to make them pay for their crimes that taking their life.

     If we really want to punish those who committed a crime, then I do not think that a death sentence would be the best way. I think that a death sentence is sometimes not a punishment, but more of a way to set a criminal free. The only people who are getting punished are those close to that person being executed. If we really want to punish them, then we should sentence them into life in prison. How will they know what they did wrong or be in agony for their crimes if they are dead? Death is not a punishment to criminals, it is a way for them to escape the world and from being truly punished for their crimes. So I do not think that the death penalty should be used to punish violent criminals, but instead, they should go through the same thing they did to their victims, and if they murdered their victims, then they should spend the rest of their lives in agony to atone for their crimes.

Stress and its Effects on Young People Today.

     Stress and its effects on young people today. Many young adult now are as stressed as adults. There are many variations of causes to our stress, but some are lack of sleep, too much homework, multiple projects, school, teachers, parents, and peers. The main reason for our stress would be school. Many things happen in our life, and most of those events occur during school time since a young adult's life is basically in school. We get our assignments and projects from teachers at school, and sometimes, those school work can become too much for us to handle. There are needs for us to do our work, but most teachers seems to have an ideal image of us only doing their work, not having any other assignments for other classes. All these school work will and are preventing many students from sleeping. Since we do not have time to sleep, this eventually leads to sleep deprivation.


     Sleep deprivation, it is when one does not get enough sleep and eventually leading to health issues, such as weight gain. If a student has sleep deprivation and has sudden weight gain or weight lose, this can affect their daily lives and their health. A student's image is important to maintain at school. In modern society were a person is judged by its cover, it can be fatal for a sudden change. Eventually, this change in their life will turn into stress, and this stress combined with our school work stress can lead to something deathly. There are certain limits that young people can handle, and unlike adults, young adults do not know  how to handle a large amount of stress. If one does not know how to handle stress and grow tired of everything, they can look towards an ending solution, suicide, and today there is a high rate of young teen suicide.

Cell Phones in School

** Should students be allowed to have cell phones in elementary, middle, or high school?**

     I think that students of all ages and grades should be allowed to have cell phones in school. The reason is because the school promotes technologically literate students. If a school encourages technological literacy, then I think cell phones are also helping achieve that goal. Also, many school directors tell students that teachers are more "responsible" with what they do since they are older and more professional, but adults and  students have no difference at all. You can find a lot more teachers using their cell phones in class than students now in this modern time. 
     Another reason why students should be allowed to use their cell phones is because it is our unspoken right. The school system takes away a lot of our rights as a student, and I do not think it would be fair for students if they took away cell phones. Also, cell phones are not only used to text or call our friends or family, but it is also needed for emergency situations, and if the school would take our phones away and an emergency occurs then we would have nothing to contact anyone. So I think students of all grades should be allowed to have phones with them in school.

If I Can Have Any Tech Toy, What Would It Be?

     If I could have any tech toy, I would have the SupaBoy. I would want this gadget because it holds my childhood in a futuristic model. I would say I was not an ordinary girl, I grew up playing games and never with those dolls. This tech toy, SupaBoy would be something I would have of many tech toys. I am pretty sure that most people who play games would be familiar with a GameBoy and a Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). Well, this gadget will blow your mind away.

     So here are some information about this tech toy. This was invented by the Nintendo game company; this came out in a 2.5 hour rechargeable battery. It is a portable SNES console that allows you to plug in the old SNES game cartridges. You can play on the built in controls or plug in the old SNES controls to the portable device. You can either play on the 3.5-inch LCD or connect it to a TV. It cost around from 80 dollars or higher.You can buy this online, but you will not be able to find this gadget in game stores.

If I Can Change the World, Where Would I Start?

     If I can change the world, I would first start out by getting rid of world hunger. There are many people in the world dying from starvation, and I feel as if the governments around the world are not doing what they can to their fullest. There are countries that donate to poor regions, but I believe they could do more to help stop world hunger. Also, countries that are getting help are always connected to the poor country; countries that have no connection to those countries they do not get any help. So, I would change the world for those who would be thankful for having food, unlike those who throw away food just because they do not like it or do not want it.

     The second thing I would change would be the school system. I am a student, currently a sophomore, and if I can change the world, I would change our school system. The first thing I would change is the quality of the public school systems and the school buildings. Honestly, I think and believe that the GDOE should ask the students before making any laws about changing our requirements or anything that would affect the students. Another thing I would do is add a law stating that no teachers are allowed to give out homework and projects during the students break. The final thing I would change would be the teachers. There are many great teachers in school, but there are also teachers that do not teach properly or teach at all, and to those teachers, I would replace them with other teachers that would teach the students properly for college.
     So, these are the very first things I would change if I can change the world. There are many more things in this world that I would like to change, such as the the government, weather, climate, people, and many more, but world hunger and school systems would be on the very top in the list to change.
