Family values, for everyone, I do not think so

Even today it is difficult to make men i n India take into account what is wrong with the life style that they have imposed to women. However, globally there are people and organization like the United Nations that ere against these lifestyles.

First of all, many people think that the treatment that Indian women receive is incorrect and it is against human rights. But the common people of India do not care about their practices that might go against these rights. Indeed in India is considered that the husband has the right to discipline his wife as it deems necessary, no matter wetter it is through physical or psychological assault, or allowing sexual abuse.

Indeed men believe that this so called “discipline” is a great way to give character t their wives.
Commonly, women are married to men that they do not know, so the marriages are arranges by their families, taking into account the economic capabilities of the bride’s family, who are responsible to pay the dowry.

However, it has been complicates that Indian people get a ware of the flaws in their culture, the only thing taken into account is the outlawing of abortions of women, since men were forcing women to abort if the baby was a girl, so the state forbade doctors to reveal the baby’s sex or make ultrasound scans were made for this purpose.

To conclude, how many years had to pass so Indian law take several actions against infringements of human rights for women. The first step in this process is the abolition of female abortions.

"We were forced to use those yellow patches from 10 to 12 centimeters wide on the left side of the sack and one more in the back, and it was not easy to go out into the street and be identified by everyone."It was not easy to be compelled to walk below the sidewalk with animals. Nor stumbles on a German official and being obliged to greet him in his language 'good morning dear
master,' and he answered 'damned Jew, recounts.
"Shie said that he will never forget that day when the american troops arrived and began to prepared a light soup that they began to save and save.

How is it possible that Hitler dares to enter a church?

Such images are those that invite us to confront that such people may exist, it is quite counter-productive, someone who tried to eliminate an entire race is emerging from the house of God

How are the kids growing up?

The last generation that grew up playing i the park grew up in the 90 `s , at that time you could still see children playing in the park and in fact they knew how it was to play in the neigborhood.

These days children grow up with computers, ipods, and an infinite variety of video games, but no longer skates, bicycles or a simple balloon, now everything is on the internet. Children acquire unnecessary information, although they are very small, it deprives them of innocence with forming time passes.

However, we could not ignore the education that their parents provide them, in the twenty-first century, as the parents have no time, they are getting money to fill their children with machines that keep them occupied, bearing in mind that the children are developed only in this environment, we can also find parents who had to resign themselves against the "technology" demands for their children.

First of all this "easy way" to raise children should change, we are creating timid young, which can only establish relationships over the Internet, they are removing the capacity to express their feelings, now everything can be done for them through a machine, providing them all aspects their lives need, these days no child knows wthat an encyclopedia is, it`s so sad that the books have to pay for their "updates" too.

Time progresses, but this new move is doing upbringing of children in excessive quantities, they no longer have space to live stages and pass them on.

On the other hand the Internet quenches the curiosity of those who really give it a good use. It allows them to know the world in minutes if it wanted too.

The infinitive amount of information that it providies should a wake an interest in them, but it doesn´t, unfortunately this medium is never used adequately.

Taking into account the two perspectives of this issue, children should not have a full and uncontrolled access to this type of technology, since it might give them misinformation or simply information that they dont even have to know.

Parents should make good use of these tools, like for educational purposes and didactic issues, that could create some good and healthy curiosities in children.

deadly sins ANGER

When a person gets carried away by the rage is capable of unimaginable things, it is something like someone else controlling your body, to leave aside any moral constraint and simply you concentrate on doing bad things to someone or something that you have been hurt by.
