.... make $200 to $400 for small part time gang jobs. Although these are important factors they are not strong enough to make kids do things that are strongly against their morals. One of the ways that kids morals are bent so that gang violence becomes more acceptable is the influence of television and movies. The average child spends more time at a TV than she/he spends in a classroom. Since nobody can completely turn off their minds, kids must be learning something while watching the TV. Very few hours of television watched by children are educational, so other ideas are being abs .....

.... Welfare Reform Act, and The Welfare and Teenage Pregnancy Reduction Act. Now the Republicans have pulled together a strong and controversial bill on welfare reform. The Personal Responsibility Act is an attempt to overhaul the welfare system by putting limits on eligibility and reducing dependency on government. This bill addresses the increasing problem of illegitimacy, requires welfare recipients to work, and caps welfare spending. Current programs will be consolidated, time limits will be placed on benefits and savings are to go to deficit reduction. The bill's main thrust is to gi .....

.... kids, of course not by cartoons, but by shows that contain information about serious subjects such as parenthood. Concerned with being good parents, people are accumulating a lot of information on the subject. As the information can be very helpful, sometimes it can be destructive. That is the case when it comes to the problem of "tomboys" and "sissies." What are these two terms used for? The term "tomboy" is used when referring to a girl who is masculine, and the term "sissy" is used when referring to a boy who is feminine. We need to state what we consider feminine and what is masc .....

.... enough that everything you need is within a short walk. I plan to be involved in many university functions and to spend a lot of time at the student recreation center, and I find the closeness of everything on the campus one of EIU's most outstanding features. Another attractive feature of the residence halls is the overall atmosphere in them and the friendliness of the people at EIU. I have visited some of the halls and they all seemed like very comfortable and relaxed places to live, like a second home. When I was there everyone was very nice and outgoing. I think it would be ver .....

.... as much television. In other words, those children are less bothered by violence in general, and are less likely to see anything wrong with it. In a study conducted at the University of Pennsylvania, children who watched a violent program instead of a nonviolent one were slower to see help when they witnessed acts of violence (Goodwyn 164). In another study at Pennsylvania State University, about 100 preschool children were observed both before and after watching television. Some watched cartoons that contained aggressive and violent acts, while others watched programs that didn’t sh .....

.... 18 years of age to play”. I had $1.50 in quarters in my pocket, so I played. I was ahead in the game, so I decided to cash what I had out. The machine printed out a yellow ticket. I lost the rest of the credits and took the ticket up to the clerk and he told me that it was worth one dollar. I picked a scratch off and won ten dollars. This experience shows there is a difference between being eighteen and being twenty-one. If the machine will physically give you money, then you have to be twenty-one to play that machine. If the machine will give you a voucher or a redeemable ticket, .....

.... it is logically impossible for all groups to be linked to the virtue of justice when one member of one of the four virtues has the potential to act unjustly. A harmony or moderation must be achieved for justice. Yet those ion the elite are at extremes and contain all four virtues. This is contrary to nature and because of this opposition by nature kalliopolis has several structural features that cannot be identical to the virtues of the soul. Each division of the soul must interconnect to form a harmonious whole just as each part of the society must interconnect naturally to be harmon .....

.... and is as moral and virtuous as heterosexual families ; therefore, the desire to be a parent is not only for heterosexuals. Gays, like non-gays, are often inclined toward parenthood. Don Clark, a gay father and clinical psychologist, assessed the relationships between sexual orientation and fathers’ childbearing attitudes and behaviors. He also explored fathers’ self-assessment of their performance of the paternal role. Also data from Eversoll Father Role Opinionnaire, the Kinsey Scale, the Father/Son/Daughter Practice Report, and a demographic questionnaire shows that most gay fa .....

.... situations may either heighten or suppress sex differences in behaviour. One study was that of social interaction between pairs of young children (Jacklin & Maccoby, 1978). Pairs of 33-month old children were brought together in the same-sex or mixed-sex in a laboratory playroom, and the amount and kind of social behaviour directed more social behaviour, both positive and negative, to same sex playmates that opposite sex ones. Girls paired with boys were more likely to stand watching their partners, or withdraw towards an adult, than boys in any pairing or girls playing with girls. The .....

.... wrong but only because primates have higher intelligence. I don't think it is right for any animal of high or low intelligence, to suffer that way. In other laboratories animals are confined to small cages or locked up so that thay can't move. They are then used to test cosmetics and household chemicals. They have chemicals poured on to their eyes and skin to see if they cause irritation. These experiments would hurt the animals by causing burns and evn blinding them sometimes. I don't think it is right to hold these animals, caged against their wills and hurting them repeatedly. No .....
