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.

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.

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.

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.

My idea is that technology is going to cause the world a major down fall. We rely on technology so much in the world that when we dont have computers and cell phones etc. we will not be able to function properly. All these satallites and power lines and stuff. One day we are going to overload. Then the entire worlds power will be gone resulting in this theory.So far the storys im going to use are Trucks and Mangler in my essey. I do not know what sources i will be using so if anyone has any ideas on that please let me know. Thank you. Anyways, The main idea of my story will basically be how cell phones computers and telivision and everything will no longer be there causing the world to go into caotic distress. This might not happen in any of our life times but it is unavoidable as of now.I think king has similar views on technology because of his writings. Like the novel cell. Trucks is screaming this idea. How there is so much advances in the truck will cause it to malfunction. yada yada. lol. ttyl in class......peace.

Technology: Beneficial or Detrimental?

I honestly am hung in between both beneficial and detrimental, because it can go either way just depending on how you look at it. Yes, technology benefits us with our healthcare, travel, communications, and education, but at the same time it also hurts us, because it is slowly has deteriorated our planet and also we have grown to reliant on technology. To go more in depth on the positive side of technology, without it there are thousands of people whose are changed because of the medical advances that have been created, for instance without these medical advances my knee cap would not be attached to my leg. Also without technology how would we get to school or work without having to wake up hours before we would originally have to, but with technology we are now able to get places faster through automobiles, trains, and even planes. Now we can even talk to people on the other side of the world with the technology we have now, whether it is through a phone or a computer, it is possible to communicate instantly. Tehcnology also hurts us though, and it does this because it tears our enviroment apart by polluting it. To most pollution is not a good enough reason for people to think that technology is bad for us, but if you really think about it, it is hurting each and everyone of us. The pollution is opening our ozone layer and this is making all of us more vulnerable to skin cancers. Now, we all breathe in every last bit of our own pollution, and that also is detrimental to our health.
