Sex Offender Rehabilitation: An Analytical Essay
Few topics cause as much emotional opinion as
sexual abuse and the treatment of the abusers. The
development of programs promoting therapeutic
changes in sex offenders can be negatively
affected by society's emotional responses to these
crimes. However, the power of these emotions
should not be used to condemn sex offenders as
monsters, but to fuel the will to search for
appropriate treatments. It is important to
understand that sex offenders can ...

Aggression Pact Soviet Union
462 words
Beginning after World War II and proceeding until
1990, the Cold War has effected all countries in
Eastern and Western Europe. Through unsettled
grievances, the Soviet Union and United States
have "fought" a nuclear arms war to show off who
has the best defenses and technology. Due to
previous events, it is evident that the Soviet
Union is to blame for such actions. From signing
the non-aggression pact to the Cuban Missile
crisis, it is obvious that the US is just a
bystander who became involved...

... unit poverty and humiliation to Germany. These
two events frustrated and angered German citizens,
thus increasing internal strife. It was much
easier for Germans to blame the Jews for the loss
of the war than to accept responsibility
themselves. The German citizens were then able to
direct anger and hostility at the Jews because
they were thought to be responsible for the loss
of the Great War (Mazian 145 - 6). The severe
economic strains due to World War I added to the
internal strife. Unem...

Daycare The Effects On Children
1,173 words
Within the past 20 years child social develop
mentalists have accumulated evidence to show that
unless children gain minimal social competence by
the age of six years, they have a high probability
of being at risk throughout life. (Denham &
Burton, 1996) Thus peer relationships contribute a
great deal to both social and cognitive
development and to the effectiveness with which we
function as adults. Others suggest that the number
of caregivers and the amount of time children
spend away from ...
