    Children need to have opportunities to take some risks so that they are able to assess and manage risks as they grow into adulthood. If a child’s experiences of risk assessment and risk taking are limited, they will have difficulty in doing this. If a more balanced approach is taken and children are given more independence, then they are more likely to grow in confidence. They should be encouraged to think about risks for themselves and act…

    Ever since my first backpacking trip 6 years ago, I’ve had an affinity for the Appalachian Trail. I’m constantly looking for excuses to mash our lives into the giant, 50 liter bags, and hit the trail for a few days. This past year, in early fall, I convinced my parents to don their sturdy boots and disappear into the wilds of bear state park with me for three days. We were dropped off at the top of Bear Mountain and, while my parents argued over directions, I wandered around the windswept ridge.…

    Carelessness is the behavior of a neglection that one many portray in their decision. In the 1920s, people were reckless and did not care what the turnout would be. They would go to a party and have one too much drinks; go behind the wheel and get into a car when they know they were unable to drive is one of many examples of carelessness. The Great Gatsby, a novel written by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is not only based on romance and love, but it foreshadows the lack of responsibility and self control these characters have in the novel. Carelessness is pivotal in the character’s lives because they are blinded from reality; they are only living through their wealth which causes them to do wreckage to their lives.…

    While reading the Time magazine article “Why the Teen Brain is Drawn To Risk”, I noticed the connections between the article and the character Chris McCandless from the book Into The Wild by author Jon Krakauer. I don't agree with the article when it says that risk taking occurs when teens are unaware of the dangers involved. Chris McCandless is a good example, because he knew the risks behind his venture into the great unknown. He knew what could go terribly wrong along the way, but still decided to take the risk. Teenagers take these risks because they don't have any responsibility to keep them accountable for their actions.…

    This mentality is shown in both the short story “Breaking Through Uncertainty-Welcoming Adversity” by Jim McCormick, although one might say that the short story “Neighbours” by Lien Chao, actually shows the greater benefit from taking risks.

In conclusion, both short stories show the benefit from the resultant of taking…
