Patrick, B essay #3

On essay 3 I will be writing about a lot of different social issues and the causes and effects of them. One such social issue I will write about will be violence and its causes and effects on society. There are many reasons that people are violent towards each other. Someone might cut you off on the highway and give you the finger for you honking at them. That can definitely cause a violent act to occur. Someone might bump into you several times in a crowded place and not apologize for it. Some people become violent when this occurs. Some people become violent when someone looks at them wrong. These types of people have serious social issues and should not be allowed in public. There is a lot of different type of violence and the acts are carried out in a lot of different ways. You have those people that become so violent and angry that it causes them to take someone’s life. These are the type of people that society needs to be violent back at. Do you know what type of effect this has on people’s lives? To actually lose a loved one or someone you know and respect due to know reason at all. That has a serious effect on people in our society today. This is definitely a serious problem that definitely needs to be addressed. And I will be happy to be the one to bring it to everyone’s attention. I could go on for days about violence but I will save that for my paper. This is just one of the few social issues I will be writing about on Essay 3. I hope you enjoy...

My Cause and effect

The cause that I chose to rant about would have to be that children are a extreme source of phsycosamatic personalities. It really is'nt have to not focus on the idea. In last rung on the ladder the kids missed behaved and ended with the parents getting angry, but this the smallest case of "childnoiance" as it would be called. Now if the teacher from suffer the little children is taking to thought, she goes flipping nuts! She believes that the children were that of another species. She goes on the killing spree thanks to Robert saying that they are every where, by leading them into a old room for a so called "test" and shoots them one at a time. Now, the story Children of The Corn, just is very creepy, kids will dominate and kill. The children are to the point of over needy somtimes and cause for high demands witch the parent gardian or the adult can handle and what happens..? The adult goes into thisdefense mode and tries to shut the childs amores down. In the Boogyman, the children keep asking for the help then the adult dosnt notice any thing like in the story the boy who cried wolf, is how it ended up, well almost the only thing is that the parent "dad" did morne over the incedents and told the phsycirtreist, witch ended up being the Boogyman. but i think that the children are a drastic part of humans reaching the stress limits and flipping out.

butler, eric. essay 3

There are a lot of pressures in todays society. For my essay I am going to write about the causes and effects of todays society. In todays world there are a lot of things that affect the way you live. One of the main things that will have an effect on your life is the gas prices. Like in " Mrs. Todds Shortcut" she could of been taking shortcuts to save gas along with time. maybe she wanted to save the money so sge could spend it on something else rather then give it all to oil refinarys. I believe that the refinarys and where ever they get the oil from are pretty much running the world. Because of them increasing the prices is causing every thing to rise in price. Because of them the cost of living has raised a tremendous amount and is going to continue to rise. The rise of gas prices is putting a lot of pressure on people and causing them to have to spend there money more wisely and cut down on a lot of driving. Today people are having to sell there cars to buy like hybrid cars or something that gets really good gas mileage. People wanting more money is causing gas prices to go up which in effect is causing everything to go up and making the poor get poorer.

Essay #3

Society puts a lot of pressure on how people look, act, and even feel. This starts as soon as a person enters this world. The way a child is raised plays an enormous role in how the child will turn out as an adult. Lester Billings’ mother was too strict with him and overprotective. In “Boogeyman”, Lester kills his own kids by letting a monster murder them and by not being a good father. He is the man of the house and expects his wife to do whatever he says. He knows the boogeyman is after him, but he lets the monster kill his children to try to save himself.
The “American Dream” is the desire to succeed in life and raise a family. Sometimes people have goals and when they don’t achieve them, bad things happen. In “The Last Rung on the Ladder,” Larry’s sister Katrina longs for a family. Her brother is too busy to visit her and her two marriages have ended in divorce with no children. Katrina ends up swan-diving off a building just like she used to do in sports when she was a kid.
The only bad thing is that every single person in the world has his/her own version of the “American Dream”. Financial security and luxury items has a different meaning for one person. For others, murder and evil are sought. In “Suffer the Little Children”, Miss Sidley kills twelve of her students because she thinks they are aliens. She is very strict, but she is a good person. She just thought it was necessary to kill the twelve children.

essay #3

The pressure of living in society is higher then ever. If you look different, act different, and even talk different then the so called normal person, you will be made fun of. It is not right to judge people. If you judge a person, then you are a resist. In to day’s society you all most have to de perfect to fill like you are a normal person. Another thing in to day’s society is race. If you are the wrong color it is hard to get any benefits from the government. Look at the Mexican population all of them pore people come to America to have a better life, and all we do is tell them they are not good enough to be here. Who are we to say they can’t live here America we should not be acting this way. We all need to look after and tack care of each other. All people are equal and should be treated that way.

Time and it's Effect

For my essay I am wanting to the cause and effects on how time effects people so much in their daily lives. Simply for the reason that time takes so much apart in everyone’s live on a daily basis. It can be for work, doctor’s appointment, or wide range of many things. Time is a very big thing in many people’s lives, especially in the century we are in today. Some people just live by when they have to be here or there, and do not take the time anymore to realize what is important about their lives. They are simply worried about what they have to do by a certain time or where they have to be by a certain time. If we did not live by such a structured world on time the world would probably be more relaxed, and not so stressed out everyday about time.

The Law of Attraction

We live in a world that is in constant change everyday. There are many things that happen in our world whether it is good or bad. Although, it seems like the times we live in are getting worse and worse. For example, what made the alcoholic an alcoholic? What made the heroin addict addicted to heroin. There are many reasons why people choose to go that direction.

Drug addiction is one of the main avenues that people decide to take. And the majority of those people either end up dead, homeless, or very sick. People use drugs as a gateway solution to try to get rid of their problems and feel more at ease. Maybe at first a human being tried a drug because of peer pressure to fit into the crowd and did it only to look cool. And as time goes on, a little here and a little there starts becoming a habit. And then 10 years later, that individual is addicted to a certain drug and hungers for it. People use drugs for many variety of reasons. Some may use it for getting high or maybe their depression. Regardless of the reason, they use the drug due to the fact that they have become addicted. And the cause of that addiction leads them to want more and more everyday and it destroys their life.

A lot of former drug addicts use to say, “I’m only going to try it once” and it usually doesn’t stop there. Next thing you know, they spend all their pay check on drugs instead of feeding his or her family. Selling things they own just to have enough to get another high. Now the drug has not only affected the drug user, it has now affected the entirefamily. The effects of drugs now causes the family to suffer so the parent can fulfill their lustful habits.

Essay 3 Idea's

Addictions. We all have them. When we think of addictions though, what comes to mind? Drugs? Alcohol? Or perhaps even smoking? What if these were just the beginning of addiction, or rather, just a few given. Do we as humans have addictions we never knew we had? Or perhaps we know and just don't want to admit it. Addiction isn't just something that can hurt you. Addiction can be something healthy, and still be an addiction. In my paper I would like to write about how the human being can tell himself/herself that he/she is not addicted, even though they are. How the human likes to lie to itself to make itself feel better.

Causes and Effects in today's society

I personally think that there are a lot of pressures in today's society. Pressure to become successfull and look as the world would have you to look while doing so. Take the story the "The Last Runt on The Latter" for instance. Growing up the sister and the brother in this story were very close. She felt like he would always be there for her and protect her. Well they grew up. The pressures of his job and becoming successful took a toll on their relationship. He didn't have any time to visit his sister or even return any of her letters. The sister that he truely loved and was once so close to. That's how a lot of today's houses are. Everybody has work, school and lot's of other things going on and they tend to forget what's really important to them. In my story I will dicuss both cause and effect. Just maybe if her brother would have returned her letters or gave her a visit just maybe she would not have killed herself.

Oil Demand in the U.S.

Oil Demand in the United States of America is a huge concern with everyone who has to pay at the pump. The demand has caused a great increase of the price at the pump. Even though everyone who drives a vehicle has to suck-it-up and pay the price. My essay will explain to you how that demand affects all of us and what we are doing to lower the demand. Our economy runs on oil. You raise the price of the barrel and the price of the trucker who ships the produce raises its fee. In the end the produce seller has to sell its product at a higher price in order to make a profit. The US is currently relies mostly on the Middle East for oil. Electrical and hydrogen vehicles are currently being developed to reduce the oil demand. Flex-Fuel vehicles are now in production which consists of a mixture of 85% ethanol per gallon.

Shae's view on "The effects H.I.V / A.I.D.S have on society"

H.I.V is becoming an epidemic, but the question is why? We cant blame a lack of education
for being the reason of the rapid spread of this disease. There are so many seminars, tv shows, and books out here to help educate us on how to protect ourselves against this disease. Unprotected sex is the easiest way to spread this disease. In todays society they have condoms in bathrooms not to promote teenage sex but to educate on the seriousness of protection against STD's. There are clinics out there that will give free condoms out to people in need. Sharing dirty needles are another way to spread this disease.
The first cases of the virus now known as AIDS were identified in the U.S. in 1981. When this disease originated it was considered to target homosexuals, but thats not the case anymore. A similar phenomenon is occurring globally, in which the most poverty-stricken, powerless countries are those hardest hit by the AIDS pandemic. They are threatened with devastating results that are just beginning to be recognized. HIV is also problematic for people of color living in the U.S., with different rates of infection occurring most notably among African-American males.
If we dont take this disease seriously and realize that this can happen to us and we are not exempt from catching this disease, we are gonna be a population of infected people with a fast trip to the grave. This disease dont have a name on it. It kills, probablly not rapidly but eventually.

Scales, R

I'm going to write my essay over both the cause and effect of drug abuse and murder. I will refer to the short story "Sneakers" on drug abuse along with murder and also, the short story "Nona" on murder. When writing my essay, I will go into more detail about what may cause a person to to do drugs and the effects of the drugs that one may abuse as well as murder and it's effect. I am going to use the internet to find more articles on these two topics. I intend to make an arguable claim on these topics and then explain why it matters. I will give my point of view on the action that I believe should be taken dealing with these two subjects. Unfortunately, in today's society there is no shortage of murder and drug abuse and no matter what the law may be it will always exist.

Steven Barajaz

The topic I am going to use for my third essay is importance of getting a higher level education. Honestly it is rare to find a career that pays over $70,000 a year, unless you're just athletic enough to play a professional sport or have great entertaining ability. Now if you don't have any education after high school, you're most likely looking at having a dead nine to five job, that will be able to support your family, if you're lucky. In the past it might have been different, where you didn't have to have a college education to get a great job with benefits, but nowadays these jobs are just about extinct. For example, my dad's job, he's been workining there for just about 35 years, he has no college education, but he has great benefits and an even better pension. Now though, I asked my dad if he could get me on there, and he told me that they are gonna start limiting benefits, and taking away pension in the next 5 to 6 years. It is clear to see that without an education after high school, there is a very slim chance that a great career can be achieved.

Harter, J. Essay 3-Causal Analysis

As of right now I would like to do my paper on the rise in the number of cases of ecoli infection and the possible causes. There is some concern that the problems we are now facing are of our own doing. When I say we I mean farmers and cattle breeders. The question I will ask and try to find answers for in my paper is whether the cases of infection can be traced back to cattle ranching and changes in feeding practices. Have farmers, meat producers, packing plants, whoever by their need for "higher quality" and faster produced usable meat products caused what is now being blamed on produce farmers? Have we as a people advanced ourselves in to a problem that should no longer be a problem in a culture with the advancements we have?

Jeremy's ideas on essay 3

I'm going to write about societies view's on mental illness and its effects. Of the homeless americans thatlive on the streets have mental problems that could be taken care of if they had adequate medical care that assited there needs, like medication could curb theamount of homeless in america. Societies limited view on mental illness drives it underground were people are ashamed of there illness which causes a persons illness to go unchecked which amplfies the mental condition to the point where some one could seriuosly injure or seriously injure someone else that could result in the death the person or people around that person. Also another form of mental illness is societies way of having social interactions with each other. we as people are social creatures yet in this modern age with the use of the internet and t.v. we continue to separate from each other and in doing so made ourselves less human to one another for example road rage when a person gets so angry when he is driving he could kill the person who cut him off because at that moment that person does not see the victim as another human being with a familiy feelings etc. etc. I guess I will be writing about the view of mental illness of society and how it is ignored and the lasting effects on society.

Social Issues Caused by the Media

Many of the problems that we have with ourselves are caused by todays media. The term of beauty no longer applies to what it did many years ago. When we think of beauty, we think of being extremely skinny, a lot of makeup, and superficial ideas. No longer does the media portray the inner beauty of mankind, the mind and heart in each of us. Many children today are being brought up on the fact that sex sells, being super thin is what is hot, and trampy clothes are where its at. A really basic way to tell how society is effecting the way society is, is to look at the celebrities who are under constant scruntity. Every single day, we hear something new about them, wether it is drug abuse, suicide, or being checked into rehab for some reason. The pressure of always being in the light of the media, under every little flaw, becomes too much to bear for anyone. They then try and "correct" themselves, only to be the center of the media again, for however they delt with their problems.

Social Issues Caused by Religion

Religion is the cause of many issues in society today, and if you think about it religion has been the cause of most problems in the world. The crusades, the Spanish inquisition, and more recently 9/11 were all motivated by religious reasons.

Now don't put me on a cross here (lol, pun), I'm not saying religion is a bad thing. There have been many positive things brought into this world because of religious reasons, and having faith in a higher power can usually help a person get through the trials and tribulations of life. But that isn't the focus of this. This is more of a focus on how things would be different if we could ignore our religious differences.

With religious differences also come cultural differences also. Christians and Muslims for example both follow different practices that effect how they live their life. And it's usually people being intolerant of these practices that lead to nasty things like religious discrimination lawsuits.

Q

The idea I'm leaning towards for my essay is child abuse and the effects it has on them as they grow into adults. Children who have been sexually abused in one form or another have many issues growing up. They believe it is their fault, that no one will believe them, and that they are an easy, weak target. Once this happens to a child their self esteem goes into the dirt. An adverse, but common, effect is that the child will completely black the whole scenario out of their mind. They will be in complete d.e.n.i.a.l (Don't even know i am lying) Either way... As they mature they start to fall into the wrong crowds, they try drugs as a short escape and easily become addicted. They will go from the perfect church going child to a fucked up angry teenager, and no one will understand. It's a slow process but it ultimately haunts the child forever. Even after blacking it out they still have the nightmares, still blame themselves, and question why this "God" would ever let someone do this to them. These children, now adults, have difficult times developing intimate relationships with other. They can't let themselves be vulnerable to another because the results can be all too tragic to go through again. What is most sad about the issue is that they are not honest with someone, even if they love them, because they've already been sexually abused, think very low of themselves, and the thought of being emotionally torn apart is all too much to bear, to even think about. To completely give yourself to someone, your deepest, darkest secrets, fears, and fantasies is to leave yourself wide open, to stand in front of a southpaw, vulnerable and defenceless as they throw all their weight into a left hook. These children have already been devistated physically but to be taken apart by someone they care about is not an option. Unfortunately most of these kids grow up feeling like an empty shell, a hollow human being, acting out becuase they think they are just another criminal to society. These children go from broken homes to TDC, and to them, there is no future, just a couple calenders before they can get out, and go right back in. It's a lifestyle to them, and in some sick, twisted, beautiful and uncomprendable way, they love it. They are addicted to chaos. There is hope, there is another way. We just need to believe. We need to want to want change, to make the decision to give ourselves to our God so that he may build and mold us into a person to do his bidding.


That's all i have for right now.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Joshua Aki

I think im going to write about how television effect the minds of adolescent. Then they grow up with these ideas of normality in there head which makes them some what prejustice tword homosexuality and racial backgrounds. And then i will go into how it also occur in other forms of media. Such as how when you see a poster for example with two people it is almost always a man and a woman. Both of the white heritage.
Not only does the media effect infants. It has an effect on grown adults and even a slight control of the federal government. Why do you think gay marraige isn't legalized federally....because in the eyes of the government. Its not normal. Many try to change this law and all have failed. Descrimination is illegal all over the usa yet we have decrimination in our own fricken constitution. Ugh i get mad even thinking about this hypocritical country.

Essay 3 Nicholas Tibaldo

I am thinking about writing about child abuse. Like if the person who did the abuse was abuse or how it affected their subconscious. I whant to research and find out what kind of mental effects it has on the child and how they dealt with it. Maybe find some one who would be willing to share their experience with me and maybe talk with some one who has been abused, other than myself. I hope i can find enough info to support it but i think i will be able to. So if any one has any imout just let me know thanks. Okay i have to add more so here i go. I knwo this is goign to be a had subject to write about not becasue there wont be enough information,. but because of the content over which i am writing. It may even be hard to read, but to this is a subject that needs to be more well known to people, so that we will have a better understanding of how much of a affect it has onn the person. There is so much out there for me to read, but i just have to figure out where it si going to go in my paper. I want people to ahev more of an understandingof how big of an affect this has on person, if the person is strong enough to deal with it or if they are able to share it wiht others and then help some one else in the end.

MarTia idea's for essay 3

I think i'm going to do my essay on the the cause and effects of abuse. in the house on maple street, the kids and their mother were being abused mentally, emotionally, and physically. i've done a little research, and it seems like a good topic. i can use the short story the "house on maple street" as a source, and of course some other outside sources. i'm not sure what the causes of abuse are. i'm sure there are many, but my essay will focus on the main causes. the effects are the same. i'm sure there are many, but my paper will focus on the main ones. there are many kinds of abuse. in the house on maple street, the mother was abused verbally, mentally, and emotionally by her husband. the children were as well. one child was even physically abused when he received a hard spankin for hardly no reason at all.

DRollins Essay 3 Ideas

At first I wasn't too sure about what I was going to write about because there are so many good topics that I would like to share and I want my topic to have an impact on whom ever it may concern. So.....I chose to write about the effects of Aspergers Syndrome (Mental Disorder). It has effected my family personally so I think I can put alot into this paper and inspire those who choose to read it. I am going to talk about the founding of the disorder and what it is. The causes and effects of it and try to answer some of the unanswered questions to those who are interested. I have very strong feelings about this topic because its a handicap to an extent and the more people who are involved, the more chance of a treatment. Although, some non-profit organizations are saying that autism is treatable. My essay group also came up with a few great ideas that were pretty in depth with humanity like, the behavioral aspects of children and society's long for normality.

C.K.Beanland Essay 3 Ideas

I am going to write about the causes and effects of abuse, drinking, and smoking. I will use the short story "The House on Maple Street" for abuse, and I will touch on "Quitters Inc." for smoking. I will be using outside research for my the rest of my topics. I will probably also touch on how the possible effect on depending on technology. If I do, then i will use the story "Trucks" to help support that.

My main focus will be on the malnutrition of obese children. I will write about why they are obese, and what caused them to become so overweight, such as lack of excersise, and fast food. I will also write about the health risks at which these children are facing and a few of the options they have to help themselves.

Essay 3 zach von ruff

I have a few ideas for this next essay. I really want to talk about the effects of high tution. I think it has become too expensive to go to college. I know a lot of people who have gotten into great schools that cant go because it cost to much. It isnt fair for them. I know that there is money out there, but with every college stundent trying to get money for school it becomes difficult. I have a friend who got a 40,000 dollar schloarship to go to a university and he still couldnt afford to go. It hard for people who dont have a lot of money to go to nice universitys. I think some of the major results of high tution are lower enrollment for colleges, people feeling like college is out of reach for them, and ultimatly creating more economic troubles for the middle and lower class. People tell me to go and apply for a grant. Well i cant get one because my parents have a high income, but they are also paying for four kids to go to college and they cant afford to let all of us go. now days, a college education is essetial to being succesful. But the cost of tution and room and board make it almost impossible for some people. To be honest im not really sure how we can solve this problem. Maybe more scholarships should be designated strickly to students who have 2 or more family members in college or something of that nature. Education is such a valuable thing and it shouldnt be limited to the wealthy.
