    Today, we discussed about the Childhood. Childhood is the state of a child between infancy and adolescence. Then, we continued to discuss about the infant mortality rate. I asked a question about this topic: What do you think has caused infant mortality rate to decrease? From my group discussion, it showed that there are three main factors has caused infant mortality to decrease. Firstly, advances in technology has improved the medical facility. Because of the high quality of medical equipment and professional doctors, infant mortality rate has declined as well. Secondly, people are better educated than there were in past years, especially parents. As a result, parents have the safety awareness of having a baby. Third, with the improvement of people’s living standards, most of family’s life are better than before. They can buy healthy food, do more exercise and afford the expensive medical fee. In all, my group discussion demonstrated that advances in technology, good education and high quality of living standard has caused infant mortality rate to decrease.

    I had discussion about two topics.
    First topic was "what is the reason for child suicide". The opinions can be divided into three. Loneliness, pressure, and being bullied. One reason occur loneliness is conflict between parents. Because of the conflict parents do not take care of their child. Long worktime is another reason. Second opinion was pressure. The pressure from parents to make child study give child huge amount of stress. child cannot do what they want such as playing outside. Third opinion was bullying. Bullying from the school can be very harsh for child and I think it is the main reason of child suicide.
    Second topic was "What kind of law can protect the youngsters from violent crimes". There was four opinions. First, ban gun. Second, do not allow students smoke. Violent is just next to the smoking. Third, teach students positive things and habits. Fourth, punish strictly who use violence. Students might stop using violence if they get scared of being punished.

    Today, we've discussed the Childhood. In my group, the first question is " Do you think today kids are better educated than before? Why or Why not? " It undeniable that everybody thought it's better than before. There are two main factors, first, the kids have international education, a lot of discussion conversation in classes, much more technology teaching tools, kinds of subjects and enough studying materials. Secondly, we can obtain lots of better teachers whom have better teaching skills and abundant knowledge.
    The last question is " Do you think increasing suicide rates are the main factor of teens death rate? Why or Why not ? " According to our discussion, we all think due to huge stress for teens today. They have more responsibilities , studying tasks, parents' expectation and aloneness.

Under this condition, more and more parents even countries will pay more attention to children's education. Most of us think the education is better that before. Now, we can get professional knowledge in the school and good teacher to teach students. In my opinion, the teachers have created all kind of way to teach. Sometimes even if just little change, it will let student are willing to study. During the daily life, the quality of book is also better than before. The manufacturers make the book which is good for our eyes. So in this developed society, we can get pretty education.

For instance, female buyers occupied higher percentage than male in DVD player consumer market. It is an undeniable fact that women’s purchasing power on electronic products became stronger than before. Also, this fact support the article, Women Enter the Electronics Market, which talk about the changing in female’s shopping habits.

    In today’s class, we learned an article related to the childhood situation across USA in the past 20 years. Therefore, we developed several relevant questions to discuss and present our opinion. Unfortunately, because of time limited, I accomplish only one question discussion with my group. I raised a question that Do you think it is really safer for children now than before. Surprisingly, most of us have similar opinion. My partners though due to the improvement in technology as well as medicine, lots of children can prevent from the death of diseases. Moreover, governments all over the world started to propose abound of policies to protect children, also give variety welfare or aids to assist children’s growing. Observably, thanks to the government, there have few wars exist in the war. Furthermore, take Korea as instance, there have no sand in the playground to avoid children getting hurt from it.
