If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

I would go to Greece for one week. I would probably stay if I really liked it but I would every where. Then I would want to go to Spain because it just sounds like a place people would enjoy. I would Love to go to Greenland and stay for the whole year to be there for the winter and summer. I would go to Australia to see the great barrier reef. To the African Safari and get a baby lion or another wild animal. I would go to all the tropical islands and of course Hawaii. Where ever I live there has to be stores and malls but it also has to be by the beach or a nice nature place.

What would you do if Your friend had a broken leg? How would you cheer him up?

I had a friend who had a broken leg before, well knee cap but it was very close. I tried to help her out and be patient. When she went to the hospital I went to see her two times. I brought her food for Thanksgiving.  I hated to see her sad cause it really did bothered me. I wanted to see her happy and try to see her and help her as much as I could. Other than her I haven't really had any friends who have broken body parts. I don't think i would want to see it though.

What is something that makes you feel sad?

Something that makes me sad is when people don't try, especially in school. I know they can do better but they have to think that and push themselves. They can do better if they put their mind to it. You can pay attention and understand the instructions or the subject. Being confident in school will get you far. I don't know how else to help them if they don't try or take advice. I don't like to see them being weak minded when they really are strong and can be much more.

What is your favourite room in your home and why?

My favorite room in my house is my room. I can sit there and think. I can do my homework with out anybody bothering me but my roommate, I can listen to music as loud as I want. It really is the only privacy we have other than the bathroom or the shower. You can almost do whatever you want. You don't have anyone telling you what to do or bothering you. Its just quite and relaxing.The best part is thinking without being bothered.

JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 31 - Vandalism

Parents should not be held accountable for their child's damage. According to Answers.com, "outside influences probably affected their child's behavior and the parents have no way of knowing what happens every second of their lives" (source link). This shows that other kids could be influencing their kid and the parents don't know or have anything to do with it. This also shows that parents do spend the all day, everyday with their kids and therefor have no way of knowing what or who influences them or drives them to do what they do. According to Debate.com, "It is unfair because they can not control everything their child does." (source link). This shows that parents work or have duties to attend and can not babysit their kids all day or control what they do. This also shows that they can try to control some part of their lives but they'll make their own choices. In conclusion, parents should not be held responsible or accountable for their child's damage.
