Is it really a good idea for 16 year-olds to drive?

In the article "Should 16-year-olds drive?" it is saying that they believe that 16 year old teenagers are not ready to drive. In the article it says that researchers for the insurance institute say 16 year olds should not be able to get their drivers license.  Linnea Greci a 15 year old girl believes that it does'nt matter what age you are you should be able to get your drivers license. Some people believe that age has nothing to do with maturity and just because you're young does'nt mean you may not be mature enough or be a good driver. I honestly believe that although you you may be mature enough or a good driver does'nt mean you should be able to get your license. Because there will always be a time especially being a teenager where you will not be aware of everything around you and other drivers on the road. Also because I know as a teenager I can get distracted very easily. I personally want my license but most likely will wait until I am a little older and mature enough to get my license and drive on the road with other moving vehicles.

Smartphones

In the article "Your smartphone is a pain in the neck" they have been explaining how your posture and the way you look at your smartphone may be causing what they call text neck. They have different doctors and therapist studying multiple people. Like Dr. Fishman had a patient that came in because of a headache and neck pain. He was examing the young teen and noticed that the way she was sitting looking at her smartphone may have been causing the problem. They also have a therapist Dr. DIAngelis saying that this may be causing other problems but her main question is what is going to be the long term effects of this. Then they say that people are using the media entertainment for 7 and a half hours sitting in the same position is not making it better. However they say that if you get up every 20 mins and stretch your shoulders and neck it may prevent you from getting sore necks and headaches. I feel that this is a piece of information that every teen that has a cellphone should read. Because they need to know why they may be getting headaces and crinks in their necks. I myself have experiened these symptons and agree that they are every bad. After reading this it makes me kind of want to stop texting so much even though that probably isnt going to happen.

Because we need change!

In the article "Yay!Boo!So? Reactions to Obama win vary" it is getting peoples thoughts on the election and the results of the election. Like in the article it was saying that Marty Brenna was saying how she would be happy with either candidate and she was not at all disappointed with the results. But people like the new jersey governor were saying that she would have preferred a business man like Romney because she feels he would get the job done. I honestly believe that Obama is a better choice for America because he touches the key points of whats going on in our society and economy. Another reason I feel Obama is a better choice because Romney felt as though women should not be paid as much as men, which is ridiculous because it is mostly women that take care of the men. Most people need to think about certain things like everyday life and how it could change at any moment because of a stupid decision and also other people before the go in the booths and decide who should be Americas president for the next four years because every vote counts.

Will climate get respect ?

In this article "Will Climate Change Get Some Respect Now" they are talking about the highest recoreds of floods and the climate and weather change. In the article it says that president obama and mitt romney didnt seem to want to talk about the subject but now that hurricane sandy has flooded and ruined a lot of places they have no choice but to talk about it. They are also talking about how they new to invest in some cleaner energy. I agree that they need to take action because if the climate continues to change things like population could change.

A.D.H.D

Experts are giving chrildren with A.D.H.D medication to calm them down and help them focus, but people are finding that the parents and doctors are also abusing the mediacation because they are giving it to their kids trying to get their kids to focus and get good grades. I know this because in the article it says that Dr. Anderson is saying "he calls the disorder "made up" and "an excuse" to prescribe the pills to treat what is considered the chrildrens true problem poor acedemic skills in inadequate schools." Also he is saying that he doesnt have a lot of choice because the enviroment is expensive so they must change the kids. I strongly disagree with what they are doing because as kids their focus will not be perfect and most kids are hyper so the fact they are calming them down using medication is wrong, parents and doctors should stop before the kids notice what they are doing and speak out about it.
