Is the Internet bad for the young people?
Internet can be good or bad depending on how it is being used. Be sure that your kids are well aware on how to use it safely. Luckily, there are tons of ways you can help ensure the safety of your kids.One good tip I can give you is to discourage your kids for oversharing in the Internet.I’ve always had a big problem with bumper stickers. You know the type. On a minivan, you’ll see the following:A stick family – there are two girls, two boys and a full-grown woman.There’s a sticker that says “Lacrosse Champions – Morrisville Elementary”On the front of the car is your parking permit for Forest Hills Housing DevelopmentFinally, there’s the sticker that says “I love my Boston Terrier.”Without you having said a word, a potential predator knows that you’re a single mother of four children who attend Morrisville Elementary. You live at Forest Hills, and you have a tiny, non-threatening dog. One of your kids plays lacrosse, so your family is not likely to be home during games.You won’t find bumper stickers on my car.Your child may be passing along information to predators online without realizing he’s doing it. Informing the social media world of where you’re going to vacation and when is one example.Talk to your kids about the importance of keeping private things private. In fact, it’s another reason you should monitor their internet usage.This article I found will surely help in keeping your kids safe online: Keeping Kids Safe Online - KidsBaron - Kids, Family and Baby Supplies
Is the Internet spoiling young children?
No. I was a young person when the internet first became popular. We got high speed internet when I was 10 (previous to that, we had dial up, which pretty much meant I spent very little time on a computer). The internet won't change what your kid will already do.Basically, if you are not raising your kid right, then they will have sex and drink before they are ready. But the internet isn't "making" them do anything they don't want to. I've never read anything online and said, "Gee, I better start drinking and having sex!".Regarding the kid seeing porn without a warning, when does that happen? Rarely have I heard of that. If it were that serious a problem, I'm pretty sure we would have heard of an epidemic of kids getting traumatized. The only time I've heard of that happening is when kids accidentally type the wrong address in the browser. If it does happen, just start a conversation with your child. Don't just make it some big taboo, because that will make things worse.Also, are you saying that before the internet everyone was pure and clean and wonderful? No child ever acted like an adult? The internet didn't invent pre-marital sex or early childbearing. My stepdad, who was a teenager in the 70s, will tell all kinds of stories of kids drinking, having sex and taking LSD at school. My aunt born in 1944 also had a kid out of wedlock at age 17. This was after she dropped out of school to work to take care of her siblings. Believe me, I'm sure she was "knowing how adults live and talk". My great aunt, born in 1922, had a child out of wedlock at the age of 16. And neither my aunt nor my great-aunt were alone, or even close to being alone, in their predicaments.Regarding internet addiction, you mean to tell me no adults at all are addicted to their smartphones? What you see in the media about kids and phones is overexaggerated. If I just sat there texting without ever opening my mouth, people would think I'm weird. You know what we call people who sit around talking about the internet in real life? Nerds. Despite what TV shows would tell you, social skills are extremely valuable to today's youth. If a young person is sitting around texting when you are trying to start a conversation, then they probably don't want to talk to you, and wouldn't be talking to you even if they didn't have a phone.
Why is the internet bad for students?
The internet is not essentially bad for the students, actually it isn’t bad at all, you can learn new things, watch videos and ask questions! (Cough cough, QUORA!!)But. You can also watch porn, search up nasty things and look at facebook!! Bleugh. Disgusting.The only thing that is bad is what the students are doing ON THE INTERNET!The internet is like our own personal digital slave. We use it in a certain way and it answers in a certain way.Example: You search up bad things on the internet and the internet will show you bad things. Vice versa.There is no point in blaming the internet. It is the students that are the problem.(I should know, I have been a student for 9 years now)Bad students. = bad internet habits.
Am I over reacting in this argument with my boyfriend?
I have been dating my boyfriend for around 6 months now and I really love him and can definitely see a future with him. He has a female friend who isn't the classiest and I have always respected their friendship. I have many male friends that I have been close to for years so I have no issue with my boyfriend having close female friends. Last night I go over to my boyfriend's apartment and his friend showed up unannounced and decided to shower at his place. Afterwards she comes into the living room where we are watching TV and lounges on the couch in her towel and starts eating dinner. This goes on for about an hour until she walks into my boyfriend's bedroom and puts on his clothes and leaves. After she left I told him how it made me upset and how I felt she disrespects our relationship and me. I would NEVER do that to any of my male friends and respect those who have girlfriends or wives. We had a big argument and he doesn't see anything wrong about how his friend was acting. Am I overreacting? I asked my girlfriends and of course they all agree with me but I am looking for honest answers here because I love my boyfriend and don't want to be picking fights.
Young people are no longer interested in religion.what is your view?
A couple of key points you could use in your paper. 1)The US is becoming more secular. This is to say that laws are slowly being changed to reflect less religious influence. Examples would be equal marriage rights in some states and the Supreme Courts decisions on Defense of Marriage Act and Prop 8. 2) The world is more inter-connected through the internet and social media. Young people have easy access to viewpoints from around the world and have more choices regarding their own beliefs. (This opposed to even 20 years ago when people were exposed mostly to just the ideas of their family, friends and immediate area) 3) Atheism, agnosticism and those who consider themselves as "none" or non-religious is growing at an accelerated rate in the US among all age groups. 4) More people in general are coming out within society as non-religious. Slowly the stigma of being non-religious as being a bad thing is dying off. This allows young people to be more comfortable with openly saying they are non-religious. Under no circumstances put in things like " religion isn't allowed in schools so therefor religion is dying among young people" because it comes off as religion was pushed upon children and that they had no choice or that taking religion out of school was a bad thing. Which brings me to my last point.. 5) Kinda redundant but I will say it anyway. The fact is more "people" in general are no longer interested in religion. This includes the parents of said children. If the parents are not interested in religion then most likely they won't teach their kids about religion.
What are the best arguments to convince someone to stop drinking alcohol?
Alcohol is a contentious issue. It also happens to be a topic on which cross-generational agreement is almost impossible to achieve. I think a categorical, step-by-step case is difficult to make against this, especially when it is done in moderation, and affects no-one else, as is the case with a lot of people who consume alcohol. Let us first understand why there is so much contention around the issue of alcohol consumption.Our opinions are moulded by our environment. Most young people perceive drinking as harmless because the environment in which they see alcohol consumption consists of harmless fun with friends. Perhaps the occasional stupid or embarrassing incident, but nothing that you can't have a nice laugh at later. It is easy for them to associate with the happy image of a drunken night out with friends, and that of social drinking, because that constitutes a large part of the stimulus they receive. On the other hand, the generation before us (our parents and grandparents) grew up in considerably less richness, were exposed to a radically different environment. It consisted not of fun drinking but of movies depicting the lower and middle classes showing alcohol as the root of a LOT of evil (it still is; you haven't been to villages where alcohol has RUINED families). Alcohol was also seen as a drain to hard-earned money. When alcohol is mentioned, they are first likely to think of a wasted man who squanders away the money his wife earned by doing sundry day jobs and then comes home and beats the same wife.For them, it is easier to associate with the image of failed livers and broken homes and widespread devastation than the romanticized version that young people stick around with, where alcohol leads to proposals and happily-ever-afters. If you have someone who subscribes to the first school of thought, the only effective way to make him change his mind would be to expose him to enough stimulus of the second type—show him all the negative effects of alcohol. Tell him about the guy who met with an accident because he drove drunk; talk about the friend whose marriage was ruined because of her husband's alcoholism, and so on.I consider this brainwash, and I don't think any person needs to be subjected to this, especially if he is responsible enough.
Is 'life's not fair' a meaningful argument?
Sometimes it is a cop-out. An argument adults present to young people when they young person points out the unfairness of a situation and the adult just can’t be bothered to make it right. Sometimes taking action to make the situation more fair for the young person has repercussions and potential ill effects that the older person sees easily but that the young person can’t imagine, and the older person doesn’t want to take the time to explain all the possible scenarios and reasonings, especially if they anticipate the younger person is only going to reject the argument in the end. Older people like myself have been in many unfair situations, and we know that sometimes you have to just move on. Younger people have more recently learned what fairness is and how important it is to work to achieve it at all times. So I would say generally it is a meaningful argument because it encapsulates a larger, more complicated argument about why going to the trouble of making the situation fair is only going to make it worse in the end. It is valid, but there are times when adults misuse it due to apathy or just plain laziness.
Teen Suicide? Why do people think that its not a problem?

Do you think many young men are becoming disillusioned and disenfranchised with society?
Massive amounts of student debt, relatively poor job prospects, rising obesity rates for women, the decline in traditional gender roles and the rise of single-parent households cause many young men to become "burned-out" on society. If you're a young man in large amounts of debt, can't find a decent job, unable to find an attractive woman, and didn't have a dad growing up, you can't help but feel that society is a disappointment or has cheated you in some way.
