and that no one has the right to tell you what you can’t do. With the sex revolution Hippies expressed that having sex was a natural thing, and men shouldn’t not be able to dictate what a women did to her body, because of this belief the idea of abortion was introduced (Hippies 1960’s). The women’s rights movement the Hippies helped influenced that women should be treated as equal as men. Through protest like the ‘Burning of the bra’s’ women expressed that they are in every way as equal as men, in
The Giver was inspired in part of Lowry’s relationship with her father who was, at that time, in a nursing home having lost most of his long-term memory. She realized one day while visiting her father that, without memory, there is no pain, and began to imagine a society in which the past was deliberately forgotten. The Giver is Lowry’s attempt to criticize reality by creating a utopian (“aiming for a state in which everything is perfect”) society. We quickly realize that this utopian society is
The fertility rate is the number of childbirths per 1000 women, according to a specific composition ratio of the number of mothers in the population. The fertility rate relates to the population of a country or area, as if the fertility rate decrease then there is less childbirths, and therefore this will lead to a decline in the total population. Moreover, if the fertility rate is high, then the population will most likely increase as well. Reason 1 Countries with a low fertility rate are usually

Sometimes, people convince others to do things they, themselves, do not want to do. In the stories “Hills like White Elephants” by Ernest Hemingway and “The Birthmark” by Nathaniel Hawthorne. There are two girls, one from each story, who seem very dissimilar. Named Jig and Georgiana, these girls are alike in many ways. They both have controlling men that tries to take away something that the girls want to keep. They want the guys to be happy but have to make a decision to go along with a serious

They should have the option to take the pill and take action before becoming sexually active to avoid abortion and motherhood. Only women can understand ”the suffering of the overburdened mother, so no one can do this work for her (Sanger).” Unexpected parents aren’t given an easy opportunity to prepare themselves for a child, there’s no handbook and pamphlet
How do you define family? How has your definition of family changed over time? I define family as a group of people who love each other and assist each other out with anything that they need.

Here is an idea. Let's give the kids of today's world material that could scar them. Now doesn't that sound like a good idea. This is what young adult literature is.
