Respect is a huge and beneficial thing that people need to have today, and within the past twenty years it seems that the respect from the younger generation. Many parents seem to spoil their children more than what they used to. Parents don’t just spoil their children with material things, but children are also spoiled in ways of how to treat others. Children do not seem to have the need to treat strangers with respect. Younger generation are completely revolved around themselves and seem to take in no consideration for others.
Another problem that social media creates another way for people to bully or have access to emotionally abuse others. Bullying has become a debacle in the news for years on kids that are being abused emotionally and even in some cases physically as well. Bullying has a huge impact on schools and education. In many cases children who are victims of bullying have a lower self-esteem later in life, and are prone to missing more school because of excused and unexcused reasons. This results to kids have lower grades cause they are not there to get the full education and lower grades.
Also the lack of teacher & student relations has even ruined my generation we feel as though there’s no one to fight for us. Are neighborhood crisis is just as bad as our education crisis and that’s just as bad as our financial crisis. These are the top three issues we face. For some it’s hard to acknowledge experience and use it to humble themselves. Instead we look at the worst and allow it to worry us.
While the characters of ‘Cinnamon Rain’ are relatable, they aren’t as close to a year eight student, due the age difference. It’s harder to understand how the characters of ‘Cinnamon Rain’ are feeling, as it is highly likely that none of the year eight students studying the topic ‘Contemporary Issues’ have been in the same circumstances as the characters of ‘Cinnamon Rain’. While students may not understand the circumstances of characters in ‘Cinnamon Rain’, it will be easier for them to understand the circumstances and setting Avalon is in. Avalon is cyber-bullied, and most year eight students will understand how effective cyber-bullying is at wearing down a person’s self-esteem. They will be able to understand that not everyone fits in and is ‘popular’ at school, and how some are bullied because of it.
If you are not from a certain class then your opinions do not matter and will not be heard. As silly as this may sound I have even seen cases where it is “who you know and who you don’t” that make a difference. These cases may seem petty and little but they hinder our communication process greatly and cause many problems in our workforce. In return from the problems this is causing it is also giving our local system a bad name and our parents are hearing these rumors and issues and deciding to take their children out of our systems and taking them to other schools causing our program to lose funding by the
Kitchener-Waterloo. A city with so many cell phones they will soon develop brains and rule the world. Other than our obvious overuse of our cellular devices, there is a lot wrong with K-W from a teenager’s point of view. Our transit system desperately needs improvement, there are few places to spend your time, while enjoying it, and we seriously lack any good entertainment. The life of a teenager is a boring one, and these problems only make our lives worse.
Many teachers do not like “catching plagiarists and bringing them to academic justice.” As she states, it is not hard to just cite the author that originally had the information you are using (Bojar). Plagiarism is becoming a big problem in the school system. Many students do not understand what needs to be cited and what does not. The school system should teach students the proper way to cite, and they should teach them that copy and pasting is not writing a paper. According Bojar to students at the community college have a hard time juggling classes along with his or her family and a job.
In addition to what Lang Wood believes, Stephens claims, students who are taking the test suffer from stress in result of worrying about passing it. Stephens points out “negative results more often than not yield low-self-esteem, higher incidents of seclusion and lower academic progress. Children who pass the test are just happy to be done with it and really do not gain sense of achievement” (par.4). It is clear that the pressure and anxiety
One of the most regretted and influential events of Canada’s past were the residential schools. These schools segregated young aboriginal children from their culture, and due to these events, aboriginal communities are continuing to suffer through the pain they have experienced. The actions perpetrated by the Canadian government, during the late 1800’s to 1996, lost the trust of the Aboriginal culture due to their experiences within the residential schools. Unfortunately, the Federal government had tried to assimilate the aboriginal culture, and in some ways they achieved their goal, but in reality it left a culture fragmented and struggling to reconstruct their community. Long before Europeans came to North America, aboriginal people had
The adults thought that it was due to lack of time and balance between school and home life. Both groups agreed that sport should be compulsory at school. Although both groups acknowledged that there is enough support available for mental health orders, both failed to recognise that mental health among adolescents is poor and needs improving. Some in society recognised that this is becoming a serious problem, especially regarding body image. This is something that needs to be recognised among society, as mental health is a decreasing trend meaning it is going to affect many people.
