St Patricks Day

St Patricks Day was made an official holiday in the early 17th century. Patrick was a 17th century bishop in Ireland, It is believed that he was born in Roman Britian in the fourth century. His father was a deacon and his grandfather was a priest in the Christian church. At the age of 16 he was kidnapped by Irish and sold as a slave to Gaelic Ireland. When he was there he discoverd God, eventually he returned to his home and he decided to convert to christianity. According to the scrpit it says he spent the rest of his life freeing slaves and converting them to christianity and being followers of God. He eventually drove all of the “snakes” out of Ireland even though there werent any there. In these celebrations they involve parades, festivals, and Irish music sessions. These were more common in the past. St Patrick’s Day parades began in North America in the 18th century but did not spread to Ireland until the 20th century. Marching bands, Military, and Fire Brigades are usually a part of the celebrations.  More effort is made to use the Irish language, especially in Ireland where the week of St Patrick’s Day is “Irish language week”. Recently famous landmarks have been lit up in green on St Patrick’s Day.

My social issue was sleep deprivation in teens

This is an issue because there are so many teens in the world including myself who dont get enough sleep. Therefore it effects their attitude, focus ,it gives them behavior issues and also effects how they perform certian tasks such as school.

The proposed solution is for school to start earlier. I aslo agree with that school starts to early and it is a proven fact that the teenage brain cannot function before 9am.

The pros to my solution are that the kids will have more sleep and they can focus better. They can also have better attitudes.

The cons are that there will be less school and might not learn as much.

How much sleep do you need for your body to function?

Should school stay the way it is or start later?

 

Abortion

My topic is abortion. Personally I have no problem with it because the baby isnt out in the world yet it is still in the moms stomach But it is 2018 and everyone takes everything so seriously and complain. More people agree with the pro choice but its not like the baby knows whats going on. Thats why pro choice is always better because the mom is the one carrying the child and it is her decision. The republicans feel that pro life better because the baby is alive even though it is not in the world yet, The democrats feel that pro choice is better because the mom is the one who is going to have to take care of the kid if she chooses the have it. The white race feels that pro choice is a better decision because everyone is entitled to their own opinion, The blacks also feel the same way. Another way to just stay out of this situation is to buy birth control, Use condoms, Or just wait until you are married and ready to start a family all of this can avoid even having to think about getting an abortion and making a big deal.
