Freedom Of Choice Cigarette Advertising
1,517 words
Cigarette advertising restrictions do not have and
intended effect, and despite that in many
societies there is an increase in cigarette
consumption. Only who is affected with those
restrictions are the cigarette companies which are
in danger of becoming a form of commercial
censorship. However, I do not want to claim
against consumer protection laws against false or
misleading advertising claims. The end result of
cigarette advertising restrictions and any other
legal products leads to a limite...

Conflict Resolution Young People

Every year, nearly one-million twelve to nineteen
year olds are murdered robbed, or assaulted many
by their peers and teenagers are more than twice
as likely as adults to become the victims of
violence. Although the problem is far too complex
for any one solution, teaching young people
conflict resolution skills, nonviolent techniques
for resolving disputes seems to help. To reduce
youth violence, conflict resolution skills should
be taught to all children before they reach junior
high school. F...

Should General Education Be Promoted
699 words
Should General Education be Promoted? There is no
doubt that the general education needs to be
promoted among young people, by every applicable
mean. Yet, people usually have a hard time coming
up the specific reasons about why should it be
done. As a rule, the promoters of education simply
suggest that it would be easier for the individual
to fully realise its potential in life, while
having been introduced to the the most fundamental
concepts of knowledge. This, of course is true,
nevertheless...

Influence Our Tastes Fluky Fashion People
699 words
Why do people dress the way they do? Is it just a
sense of style or are we dressing to make a
fashion statement? Are we dressing just to be
dressed or are we forced to go along with the

other to look fashioned and follow the new trends

System Of Education Standard Of Living

1. Since the early 1980 's, the government is
seriously concerned about issue of America's
system of education in schools and universities.
American students show very poor results in
international tests and fail to demonstrate their
knowledge. The percent of youth-at-risk is
growing. It is very strange that though the
government knows that the problem exists, it didnt
make any effort to do something to improve the
situation. Student dropouts are also a big
concern. As a result some of them do n...

Legal Drinking Age Minimum Drinking Age
1,539 words
The introduction of young people to beverage
alcohol varies considerably in different cultural
settings. In many societies the age at which the
purchase and public consumption of beverage
alcohol becomes legal is also the age at which
other "adult" rights and responsibilities are
bestowed. What is neither clear nor consistent is
the age at which this should occur. Communities
recognize the capacity for alcohol to be abused,
particularly by young and inexperienced drinkers.
The imposition of a le...

Risk Taking Behaviors in Adolescence The
prevalence of risk taking in adolescence tells us
that risky behavior is a usual aspect of the
adolescent life experience. Some risk taking looks
like to be normal behavior for the young people.
This is a very important factor to be considered
by teachers in their pedagogic work. Taking risks
appears to be a way of gaining self-understanding.
And it does not matter whether it is an attempt to
master things or testing some limitation or
boundaries. The mai...

Poised motionless near the back door of the
twentieth-century, we ponder memories of the past
with a daydreaming stare. Before we turn off the
lights and lock the doors of the
twentieth-century, we take one last look through
the century in which we were nurtured and our
world lived for so long. The deep engraved
scratches upon the walls of the twentieth century
serve to jog our national memory to painful events
as well as amazing accomplishments. After much
reflective thought, we began to grasp ...

Begin Using Drugs Hope Take Drugs People

Only Those With No Hope Take Drugs Beatle John
Lennon once said Only those with no hope take
drugs. But I believe the statement is partly true,
because not only those with no hope take drugs but
more and more young generations begin using drugs.
Moreover, others may use drugs out of curiosity,
for a thrill, or to rebel. Regardless of why drug
use begins, many people continue the practice
because they become dependent on the drug. In
recent years, the age of users of drugs has
descended dramatica...
