1. The Punishment for murder should always be death.

I strongly agree with this statement because murder is the worst you can do and you shall be punished with the same that you did to others, if not worse. I believe that the right punishment for something horrible done to someone should always be the same that they have done to the victim. When someone murders another he shall be killed as well because he did something wrong that he should not have and he shall be killed for his mistake as well.

Ex: A Stranger kills my best friend; the Stranger should be killed as well, so he dies the same as my friend did.

2. Teenagers can´t understand what true love really is.

            I am neutral to this statement because it is very tricky. I have a Girlfriend myself and I would not want any other girl next to me at the moment, and I am happy with her. But I have already seen that one Teenager falls in love with another and she or he believes that this is true love but then one of them is just playing with the other. Therefore I am neutral because I believe it can happen but it can also be interpreted wrong and one of them will be very hurt. So the Conclusion is that some can understand, but not all of them can.

Ex: A boy only want to sleep with a Girl and acts as the best man to her. She believes that he is the perfect boy sleeps with him right away. Then he just leaves her because he achieved his only Goal.

3. Killing someone in revenge for killing a close friend of yours is okay.

I strongly agree with this statement because the hate on the person who has killed a friend of mine would be so big that killing them would be my only desire. If someone killed my Family member I would do the same to him or her. Like in the first Statement the punishment for murder should be death and if my family member is killed I would want to be the one who kills the bastard who did this.

Ex: My Father is murdered for firing one of his employers; the employer kills him as revenge. I would hate this employer so much that I would kill him as Revenge.

4. Good friends should stick together at all times no matter how wrong a friend my be.

I this phrase is formed wrong, or at least it doesn´t make any sense to me in this content because a good friend will not be a wrong friend and if he would be a wrong friend that I would say that you should not stick with him. I believe you should find other friends that you can trust and depend upon.

5. Parents should make the decisions about their children´s lives.

I don´t agree with this because children should decide for themselves at a certain age. Until a child has not understood how important education and life actually is, I believe the parents should make the decisions for them. When they are old and mature enough they should make decisions themselves. They should know what they want to do and they shall not depend on opinions of others because then they might be unhappy. They should have the control over their life, not their parents

Ex: I have understood in 8^th Grade that Education was actually really important. When a teacher said, you DP grades will determine if you get a Diploma and to which University you go. Then I realized, hey this is important and I have to work in every subject at my best to be ready for DP.

6. It is possible to fall in love at first sights.

I strongly disagree with this statement because it can only be the visual love. When looking at someone from distance you can see their looks, theirs style and their movement. But their Characteristics are what is most important in love. The looks get two people together but the Characteristics let they stay together. Love is not all about looks, therefore I don´t agree.

Ex: My friend and me once went out to hang out together. He saw this really nice looking girl and he said Wow, I have to talk to her. He went over and I waited for him to come back with her. But 5min later he came back saying we have to leave because he was terrified by her. He said her laugh is horrible and the amount and the way she talks it just awful.

7. Telling lies or hiding the truth is acceptable for the right reasons.

I strongly disagree with this statement because if the person finds out the truth later it is even worse. If a lie is told to hide the horrible from someone else to save him or her of pain, it will be even worse if they find out the truth by accident at some point. This happens a lot therefore I always tell the truth because then there is no pain for that person.

Ex: I tell my sister her rabbit ran away by escaping of its cage and that it was because of the bad cage, later she finds out that it was actually me left the door open, now she will be even more sad.

8. Family feuds only affect Adults.

I strongly disagree about this because it affects everyone. I have been in Family feuds and it was about everything, they were complaining about me being mean to their child, about my parents, about my sister etc. They complained about everything they could and I was in the middle of it. Therefore I belive that it affects every member of the family not just the adults because the kids are affected by it to because I was very scared of the neighbors since then.

9. There are times when arranged marriage is appropriate.

I strongly disagree with this because a person should chose himself who he wants to marry. I one loves another and they want to marry it would be horrible if their parents wouldn´t let them because they have been promised to another person. The love would be destroyed and they wouldn´t be happy with the other person.

Ex: Adrian loves Ana and they want to marry. Ana´s father has sold her to a rich man, now Ana is really unhappy and can´t be with Adrian anymore. They are really unhappy and only because of arrange Marriage.

10. Each person has a soul mate.

I strongly disagree with this because I don´t believe in soul mates. I don´t believe in soul mates which is the reason for my decision. It is hard for me to believe that there should be a perfect match to me out there because everyone will have something that I don´t like about them because that is just how it is. I don´t believe that there is a perfect other half of me.
