Airport Security Safety or Privacy?

Many people in this world believe that airport security should protect others privacy before safety. In fact, i used to be one of those people until I heard a phenomenal presentation in English class describing the ways that privacy being before safety has ended in a bad way. The attacks on 9/11 killed 2,819 people. Those numbers are mind boggling in my mind. Privacy should not come before safety clearly, because the past shows a clear relation to lack of airplane safety and lost lives. Some people will not fly because they are scared that their lives are in jeopardy. Some on the other hand will not fly because they think that the airport security scanners are too revealing. Security scanners used to show others body's beneath their clothes, and most people did not like that. Some were fine with it because they wanted their safety to come first. Now the US has scanners that do not reveal anything other than what has the potential to be a weapon. People should worry less about their privacy in an airport and more about their safety because being violated will not kill you, but being put on a plane with a crazy guy from Saudi Arabia that has a bomb just might.

Let Familys be What They Will

My take on the researching topic of the modern day family is slightly emerging to one side. Yes, it is good to be like a "traditional" family and communicate all the time, but i think it is more important to progress and change the picture of what a family is and should be. There was a time a while back that your family had a say in who you married, and almost everything you did as a youngster. Times changed and then children started getting more freedoms from their parents. Now many kids have all these freedoms like hanging out at the mall, having a cell phone, and being with friends mostly whenever they want. Not all family's eat dinner and talk every night, but some do. It is just something that we the people need to respect. Things do change and the definition of the modern family will soon change as well. But i do like the fact that everything is constantly changing. It mixes things up and makes it interesting. Parents still should know where there kids are and what they are doing, however. It is not right to ignore your parents and go off to do your own thing without letting them know. Parents do need to accept the fact that things do change and they cant control the future. I am clearly more toward the modern family progression side, but i do also have a bit of arguments for trying to regulate the modern family with morality.

Familys, Where did they go?

The modern family is descending, compared to what a family used to be not too long ago. I see all of these TV shows that show families as being perfect and eating dinner together around a table every night. In reality, families these days rarely sit down at dinner and actually converse about what happened that day and how life is going for them. Some families don't even get to talk over the course of the day.I am sometimes guilty of this. I go to school, do my homework, go to basketball practice, eat a quick meal, go to the gym, then finally come home and crash. It doesn't amaze me as much anymore, now that i experience not being in touch with my family as much as i used to be, but it still disappoints me. "Many families live in different cities then they once did" Kitty Stevens said. Modern cities will tend to change the lifestyle of everyone. With so many things to accomplish in a day, there leaves no time to spend with the people who brought you into this world. Although many cons come out of this modern day family, i think there is some good to find. When people have things to do, there is less room to get in trouble, and more room to learn about the world. I believe that learning about the real world early, will help prepare everyone better for the long run.So is the modern day family a good thing for the world right now, or a bad thing?
