Monserrat: Censoring Children

Decent Essays
Monserrat, I loved what you have talked on your QD. It is really great that you mentioned how the government need to have a certain type of process to help and train the parents to create a good living condition for the new boring kids. i think you are right, kids need a better environment and loving parents and society. As a single mom and a teen mother, mostly it is hard for the mothers how to take care of the kids. If the government has a support to help and teach them how, the kids can get better environment.

In the book, a small boy named Gold-Eye has run away from his base camp once he had turned fifteen, which was just around the time of the change.

    In recent years, many schools have created banned book lists, banning certain books due to content deemed unsuitable for young readers, which naturally raises a question as to the justification and necessity of such a decision. I wholeheartedly disagree with this decision, as not only is censorship in general invasive to free speech, a right protected in public schools, but detrimental in the case of literature, being that there is an epidemic in the younger generation of the condition of semi-literacy. Therefore, if a student cannot obtain their literature of choice, the only logical position for them to take is to forgo reading entirely. For those reasons, it is my firmly held belief that banning any type of book would result in tempering…

    Midterm Essay Looking back when we were in high school they always said how we are being censored. Sure they put censorship on computers but that is for good reasons because we don’t need teens being distracted by Facebook and Youtube. But some of the things they do censor is history and we find that it is not right to do so. Some books are banned in schools or have been revised to take out bad language or things they don’t want our minds to see how we were back in the day when no one cared if you wrote offensive words in books of TV shows.…

    Selective Censorship seems to be a large debate in today’s world of technology. Through the use of television, as well as internet on cell phones, Chromebooks, and regular desk top computers, companies speak to children primarily by the use of commercials. This may sound like a freedom of speech and seem open and honest. Actually children often get persuaded to think differently, purchase certain items and accept behaviors that might not agree with their family traditions.…

    It is very difficult to decide whether an information should or should not be censored, because everyone has different thoughts and views; however, I strongly believe that certain books or informations should be removed from the libraries. The censorship in the libraries is necessary, especially for the students. Many informations in the public libraries can be harmful for students. Because students don't have their own views or ways to determine whether a information is right or wrong. Moreover, they can be affected by some of the inappropriate informations easily, such as racism and sexism.…

    Every parent raises their child a certain way and there are multiple different parenting styles that parents normally choose from or do without realizing. Raising your children in a way that will not teach them how to take care of themselves as adults will affect their futures more than you would think (Lalicon). If a child is not taught how to do certain housework throughout their childhood, they might never learn how to do it themselves, especially if their parents do everything for them. Schools could very easily fix this issue. Throwing a class about life into a student’s schedule will benefit them immensely, particularly if they are stuck in the parents not teaching them these skills situations.…

The highest law in our land in the US is the Constitution, which has some amendments, known as the Bill of Rights. Public school districts must balance students’ constitutional rights with the need for safety and the prevention of violence or disruption of school rules. The goal of public schools is to maximize the development of students through academic and social growth.
