    The Chosen, the novel by Chaim Potok follows the lives of two Jewish boys, Danny Malter and Reuven Saunders, set in Brooklyn, New York, during the time of World War II. A common paradoxical theme found in this novel is that through one’s loss there is also one’s gain. A quote from Reuven’s father, David Malter states this paradox perfectly; “No one knows he is fortunate until he becomes unfortunate” (Potok 87). To me this means you don’t realize what you have until it is gone or taken away from you. There are many examples of this found in the novel and also some examples of this I can relate to my own life.…

Football” it says “professional teams often use air pads that are inflated by a hand bulb on two points of the helmets.” With the air pads, that doesn't mean that it is concussion proof.…

    Concussions and paralysis from football is a major topic in the 21st century. Hundreds of NFL players are injured every single year due to hard hits to the head and nobody is doing anything significant to stop this from happening. If coaches of the team or the school asked me about my decision to forbid A.B. from playing football after listening to the neurosurgeons advice, I would stick by it as you should never take a chance and jeopardize your safety. Many people who suffer from this disease eventually suffer partial paralysis and severe weakness in the legs and arms. Especially when you are younger, suffering from this disease can be crippling and no one should have to go through that if they do not need to, and A.B. did not need to.…

    Jessica Statsky, the writer of the essay, “Children Need To Play, Not Compete,” describes how children’s sports have been changing in recent times.
