Role reversal, child takes on many adult roles parentification. Emotional part of their brain are in overdrive (amygdala and hippocampus); when not under distress, they are very competent. They might go to drugs and alcohol to mask feelings or to find a way out . They can overdrink because they can"t process it as fast as adults. Adolescents is the pruning season of the brain have to make sure you are using the specific neurons that you want to keep. Chronic stress is not good for brain or adolescent growth. If the parent is placing adult roles on their teen, they are taking away their ability and life to can knowledge and different experiences. Work hard to start to develop a life away from their parents.

Abortion keeps being a controversy because both sides of the spectrum have valid points. The side that is prolife it right about abortion being the termination of an organism. Their believe system states that murdering human being is wrong and since an unborn child is still a human child, then by default this should be condemned as a wrong thing. They also say they are helping the woman themselves because abortion can have âthe risk of breast cancer in those who had experienced an induced abortion was 50% higher than among other womenâ however the same study states âthe results across all epidemiologic studies of this premise are inconsistentâboth overall and within specific subgroups. The risk of breast cancer should be re-examinedâ. This means we should not jump in to conclusion because more studies need to be done before accepting something as fact. The side for pro-choice states that a woman should have the choice to make her own decision no matter if it is a good or bad decision. A decision that will change her live completely and most of the time make it harder for a woman to get ahead in life.

I am pro-choice, not because I like terminating live, I am actually pro-live of any type of organisms not just humans, but because woman who phase this problem should have their reason or really are not prepare to have a baby in a modern society, and as Mack T Brown said âThe value of a self-represented future resides within the person herself, as a feature of a richly complex mental life". Both sides of the argument go to the extreme to explain their case pro-choice and give the example of a raped woman. Pro-live give the example of that a baby is always a good thing. Both acceptable, however most woman are not in this spectrums, an example that is more relevant is a woman who does not have the emotionally and or financial maturity to make the choice that is to have a child. Physically a girl is ready to have a child when her menstrual cycle begins that is usually around 13. Most people would agree that a girl of that age will not have any type of maturity to take care of even herself less a child. Letâs not go far letâs say a girl of eighteen years old getting out of high school, she may have a rare emotional maturity at that age to have the child but in todayâs society impossible without any help from family members to take care of that child. How many hours will she work? How will she take care of the child? How will she go to school to better herself for the future to come? These girls that are asking themselves if they should have an abortion is not because it is something they would like to do, it is a hard decision to postpone taking that live changing decision before they are ready to do it and not be a burden in society.

The current abortion law is strict, so abuse of the law will be very hard to do. In the third trimester a woman would need 2 signatures of two physicians to be able to do an abortion. I personally think that this is great this way we can assure that there is no negligence from any party. The part of the law I do not agree with is that the law says that if during the abortion the baby is born alive they need to offer emergency services. This defeats the purpose of an abortion that as harsh as it sounds it is to terminate the pregnancy cycle before time.

Please rephrasethese sentences:

Genetic modification / engineering
Cloning gives parents the opportunity to choose whatcharacteristics they want their children to have. For instance, theparents want their child to have Albert Einsteinâs IQ. Theextraordinary athleticism of Michael Jordan.

Some scientists think human cloning is a good matter becausehuman being can control their evolvement, so that we can âcreateâmore artists, athletes, and scientists. If we can choose in thisway, we can enhance humanâs achievement.

The healthiness of infants

Cloning can eliminate all the worrying regarding the childâshealth. Scientist can alter the genes to ensure a healthy child.For example, if a mother has given birth to 2 children whichsuffered from Downâs syndrome. Doctors can manipulate and balanceout the number of chromosomes in the embryo to give the mother anormal and healthy child.

Better understanding of genetic diseases

Scientists and ethicists who favor human cloning research arguethat cloning may provide a better understanding of the nature ofgenetic diseases and aid in the production of embryos from whichcells could be obtained to grow various organs for organtransplant.

Help improve lives

The cloning of genetic modified animals can have certainmedical, agricultural and industrial applications. For example,genetically modified cattle can produce milk with certain drugsinside in mass production.
The fundamental criterion of medical science must be the defenceand promotion of the integral good of the human person, in keepingwith that unique dignity which is ours by virtue of ourhumanity.
Human cloning (including the cloning of embryos) has stirredcontroversy in the society since the success in cloning of Dolly inJuly, 97 in Roslin Institude, Ireland.
So, what are the pros and cons of cloning? Will it lead to theextinction of human or improve our lives? What are the religiousperspectives toward cloning? Let us start discussing its ethicalproblems by its advantages first.

Federal statistics show that in vitro fertilization and relatetechnologies have a success rate of less than 20%. Hence cloningmay provide en efficient solution to infertility. This is the keypoint that advocates argue for cloning. Cloning is believed to besolving the problem of infertility. Women that are infertile canhave their own babies with the help of this technique by implantingthe cloned embryos into their bodies. This can eliminate the mentaland physical pains among the infertile couples.
Provide organs for transplantation
pig livers can be transplant to a patient which suffers from liverfailure but there is no human liver available. In this case, thepig liver can be transplanted to the patient temporarily until hecan find a suitable human liver.

The opponents think that this will deprive the human value,because the child is born on purpose, thatâs to rescue otherâslife. The child will become the equipment of therapy
Despite the painful circumstances, the only way to treat this casemorally is to let the patient dies, not to clone another child.

Therapeutic applications of stem cells potentially could treatillnesses including: Parkinsonâs disease, diabetes, Alzheimerâsdisease, stroke, heart attack, multiple sclerosis, blood, bone andbone marrow ailments, severe burns by providing skin grafts, spinalcord injuries, and cancer patients who have lost cells and tissueto radiation and chemotherapy.

Lance H. and Wanda B. Dean are married and live at 431 YuccaDrive, Santa Fe, NM 87501. Lance works for the convention bureau ofthe local Chamber of Commerce, while Wanda is employed part-time asa paralegal for a law firm.

During 2016, the Deans had the following receipts:

Salaries ($60,000 for Lance, $41,000 for Wanda)		$101,000
Interest incomeâ
City of Albuquerque general purposebonds	$1,000
Ford Motor company bonds	1,100
Ally Bank certificate of deposit	400	2,500
Child support payments from John Allen		7,200
Annual gifts from parents		26,000
Settlement from Roadrunner Touring Company		90,000
Lottery winnings		600
Federal income tax refund (for tax year 2015)		400

Wanda was previously married to John Allen. When they divorcedseveral years ago, Wanda was awarded custody of their two children,Penny and Kyle. (Note: Wanda has never issued a Form 8332 waiver.)Under the divorce decree, John was obligated to pay alimony andchild supportâthe alimony payments were to terminate if Wandaremarried.

In July, while going to lunch in downtown Santa Fe, Wanda wasinjured by a tour bus. As the driver was clearly at fault, theowner of the bus, Roadrunner Touring Company, paid her medicalexpenses (including a one-week stay in a hospital). To avoid alawsuit, Roadrunner also transferred $90,000 to her in settlementof the personal injuries she sustained.

The Deans had the following expenditures for 2016:

Medical expenses (not covered by insurance)		$7,200
Taxesâ
Property taxes on personal residence	$3,600
State of New Mexico income tax (includesamount withheld
from wages during 2016)	4,200	7,800
Interest on home mortgage (First National Bank)		6,000
Paid church pledge		3,600
Life insurance premiums (policy on Lance's life)		1,200
Contribution to traditional IRA (on Wanda's behalf)		5,000
Traffic fines		300
Contribution to the reelection campaign fund of the mayor ofSanta Fe		500
Funeral expenses for Wayne Boyle		6,300

The life insurance policy was taken out by Lance several yearsago and designates Wanda as the beneficiary. As a part-timeemployee, Wanda is excluded from coverage under her employer'spension plan. Consequently, she provides for her own retirementwith a traditional IRA obtained at a local trust company. Becausethe mayor is a member of the local Chamber of Commerce, Lance feltcompelled to make the political contribution.

The Deans' household includes the following, for whom theyprovide more than half of the support:

	Social Security Number	Birth Date
Lance Dean (age 42)	123-45-6786	12/16/1974

Kyle Allen (age 17)	123-45-6789	05/03/1999
Wayne Boyle (age 75)	123-45-6785	06/15/1941

Penny graduated from high school on May 9, 2016, and isundecided about college. During 2016, she earned $8,500 (placed ina savings account) playing a harp in the lobby of a local hotel.Wayne is Wanda's widower father who died on January 20, 2016. Forthe past few years, Wayne qualified as a dependent of theDeans.

Federal income tax withheld is $5,200 (Lance) and $3,100(Wanda). The proper amount of Social Security and Medicare tax waswithheld.
