Other - Society & Culture - 30 July 2007

Many people would like a Lead in Life. Assuming most of us contribute decently to each others' Lives, give me a description or classification of the Old-Upstarts, that exist in our communities, that we should definitely NOT follow.

Leave Politicians out of it. That is too popular.

I'm hearing more and more about the links between weed and mental issues. Is it really that dangerous? I personally find it a horrible drug that changes some of the people I love into very self-centered and defensive, agressive morons, but can it really be linked to psychosis - how likely is it to happen, and what are the first signs to look for?

Children have more exposure and their overall personality is developing. Communication skills and analytical skills are improving. The future of India is going to be in the right hands. We are seeing the success.
However what happens to our culture. It is going to change drastically and worried of loosing its charm.
Like youngsters don't respect elders. Teachers and Gurus are no longer given due respect.
Forgetting happiness and going behind money all the time.
Relationships are breaking. Women getting exposure is good. But power women are going for divorce and becoming lazier.
Men are preferring living in relationship. Marriages are going to be broken often.
Given honest good answers, which shall educate one and all

I'm childfree, meaning I decided that, no matter whatever else I do in life, I will never have a child.

However, even while I make no personal attacks on people, no matter what other decisions I make, lifestyle or otherwise, they always insult or attack me when they find that I don't plan to become a parent. They think something is wrong, and insist that I will change my mind, despite that I've felt this way my entire life.

People also assume that since I'm childfree I hate children (I like kids), or that I'm selfish. I don't believe myself to be either of these things. I simply think that I won't make a very good parent.

Why do people have such a hard time accepting people who choose not to have children?

It seems to me that this is the thorn in the side for Israel, that they cannot compromise on something that they didn't create. It is punishment for a defensive war that was made necessary by the rejection of the partition by Arab and Palestinian leaders. The Arab armies attacked first and told the refugees to leave. Many just got caught in the crossfire or chose to leave beforehand because they didn't like the partition and decided to move elsewhere into Arab-held territory. Israel is willing to compromise on Jerusalem and do a land swap with the building of houses or financial compensation for the settlements along the '67 border. They will clear out any others and return the seized land. They also could be asked to clear out any other settlements that are smaller and in the way. So it seems to me this is the issue that can't be resolved.

It reads on the Fateh website that 'the refugee's right of return is the winning hand for (our desire for) the end of the Israeli state'.

Well, I'm searching for some good Girl Scout Gold Award projects and I want as many opinions as I can get on what I should do. I'm open for anything (And please, don't be limited to just helping the homeless or animal shelter...or if you're going to suggest that, then can you broaden it?) I want something that society needs but I also want it to continue after the project is over and I want it to be fun. I'm looking for something that I can be active with and not just a simple donation kind of thing?

In her cart was cheese, 5 bottles of soda and jello. I took my groceries to my car and she was getting in a better car then I have. Am I wrong to feel angry about this?

so i'm going to be a sophomore in high school, and i'm transferring to a different school. i'm really nervous about meeting new friends/people! with my close friends i'm probably the most outgoing out of all of them! and i'm really loud and fun when you get to me. but i make horrible first impressions and always seem like i can't show my real self when i first meet someone! i usually get really shy, and i hate it because people don't know how fun i can really be!

any tips on how i can overcome the shyness so i can show my real self when i'm trying to meet new people?

please help because i want to make new friends without looking like i'm trying too hard!

Throughout all of school ever since elementry i've noticed so many people picking on others just because they were a little over weight or they wore glasses or got braces, or just for whatever reason they wanted to come up with. Why cant people just accept people, EVERYONE is different, even identical twins.

Listen just because you turn into a wolf once a month doesn't mean you have the right to cut me. I know you get angry, but cry me a river would you. I don't care if you are in a rush to get home before the full moon. I got things I have to do to. Sometimes it amazes me that some creatures think they have the right to move out of a structure make up their own rules then pretend they are right. Thats why america got into all this trouble because they have a werewolf mentality. This really burns my bush. Wait in line like everybody els you untrained dog!

Because earlier today i saw a 5yr. old girl with a man in the Men's restroom, personally i find it hypocritical and two-faced to have signs that say Men/Women and don't apply it. Because i believe if adults cannot use the wrong restroom then minors shouldn't either.

Because allowing a 5 year old girl in the men's restroom is seperate but not equal.

Why not just save yourself the bother of getting up and going to work by just sleeping late and joining the Poor? Not working and having nothing seems to be better than working and still having nothing?

My two main passions in life are traveling and continuing my education, both very expensive, especially here in the States.

I have health problems so I have my priorities straight, I know money is not everything, i.e. it can buy medication but not health.

But I am just wondering, since money allows for more opportunities, do you think wealthy individuals are more inclined to be happy and live fulfilling lives?
