Do the “Write” Thing
VIOLENCE:(verb)behavior involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.
Violence. We’ve all heard of it. Usually, when people hear the word violence, they think of children getting picked on at school or a child getting their lunch money stolen. The line doesn’t end there, though. From big, fat bullies at school picking on younger, weaker kids to people getting beat on the streets just because the color of their skin, violence is happening all around the world.

Adults are being physically and mentally abused by their spouse, and children are begging their parents not to go to school based on fear of being picked on or hurt.

Women in certain cultures are frowned upon, and children are being killed for their religion. Just because it isn’t affecting you, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

Starting at an extremely early age, kids already fight over who gets the last cookie or who gets to go first on a Disney ride. If every person let the other one go first or get the “last cookie”, then there would be a lot less
