Over the past few years there has been heartbreaking, and preventable deaths where children or babies have been left in hot cars unattended too. Some kids have died in this situation, and some have been left in critical condition. My argument is, do you think the parents should be charged if being in a hot car harmed their children? What if the parents claimed that it was accidental, should they walk free? In my opinion, I feel that the parents should be charged, even if they said it was an…

Huck and Jim are blissfully distanced from humanity in the raft scene, but people in the play scene suffocate Huck.

Similarly, “you see that axe flash and come down- you don’t hear nothing; you see that axe go up again,…

As fun as it is to be a teen there seems to be some strict rules that teens cannot do.There are surely some speechless rules that teens cannot do and should be changed to cause teens feel more free.One example on why teens should not have these rules is when they drive.The rules for driving are pointless and it doesn't make any sense. Not able to drive with more than one non-family member is pretty ridiculous. It's not going to form the driver worse if he/she drives with more than one…
