Social Justice âMarriageâ

Marriage is a custom which can be found in every human culture. Although the forms and rules are differ. Marriage is a form of commitment between man and woman. It is a legal recognized relationship by a religious ceremony between man and woman who intent to live together as sexual and domestic partners. It is can also an arrangement between families whereby parents create a kind of business transaction in order to maintain family status and level. Modern marriages become more complicated today due to social justice issue such as homosexual marriage and divorce.

Arrangement marriage used to be common in the ancient world and it is still practice in most countries today especially to those high power and status families. Parents have control over their childâs happiness. They will one who will choose and decide to whom their child going to marry. For the sake of family status and power they sacrifice their own childâs happiness. Freedom and happiness have been taken out from their children. Arrangement marriage is also a form of solemn promise between two families. My parent married was arranged but they opting for love marriage. Even though they donât love each other, but at least they know each other for long time. They try to accept and love the one another and now they live happily with six children in a comfortable living. This kind of marriage arrangement is good because both families know each other very well. But not for others, they donât even know who their going to marry. They cannot see the appearance and personality until the wedding day. Marriage means people marrying for love and live rest of their life for the person their love. Unfortunately, marriage is just a primary union which made good economic sense and in order to solidify political alliances.

Modern people are pushing the trend toward amorality same-sex marriage. Same-sex marriage has been top debate issue in our political and society today. Even higher Supreme Courts take action about this matter. Majority people are opposing about same-sex marriage or gay marriage, especially in religious groups. They insist that marriage is between one man and on woman. They been taught this way and it was written in Holy Bible for many thousand years. As a Christian myself, I have been taught by pastors, church members and family that there only two gender that God created. Gay is considering a moral sin. Although, I have been taught that way but I never look down on gay people. I have big respect for them, it is not their choice to be gay it happen from their own will. They also human have the right to choose who they want to married. I support gay civil union for gay couples, but it doesnât mean that I support gay marriage. Marriage has been union of one man and one woman in all human cultures throughout human history. It has been the standard custom in many cultures for several thousand years. Unfortunately, the definition of marriage today is radically different from what it was several thousand years ago. Same-sex marriage destroys the definition of marriage, because it no longer represents the inherently procreative relationship of opposite sex pair bonding.

Marriage was born from primitive cultures that recognized that males and females mated and as a result produced children that needed to be cared for. Unfortunately, the rates of files divorce increasing rapidly especially in United State. Many people filing divorce because the relationship is not going well. In the first place they didnât know what is marriage really means. They just though that the intimate love between two people are enough to get married. It is more than that; it is more on responsibility and sacrifice. It is an idea couples committing for life and raising children together and sharing the struggles of survival. Divorce is the most stressful event that affects family especially on children. Children may feel a great loss and as well as anxiety and sadness. Back in hundred years ago, divorce cases are very rare. Even the love between both parents is gone; they still stay together for the sake of their children. Parent divorce made a big impact on children, from old saying that âchildren learn what they liveâ is very true. Parent is childrenâs role model, whatever parent do the children will imitate it. Children of divorced parents perform more poorly in school. They also are more likely to repeat a grade and to have higher drop-out rates and lower rates of college graduation. It is really big impact for our society; federal government spent more money on school because higher repeat grade. Marriage is foundation of family. However, the foundation is getting weak and higher consumption for singles.

The meaning of marriage is differs from one person to another, from time to another. In ancient times, marriage is a form condition where women most treated as a property for men. Historically period, marriage is permanent institution that once entered cannot be dissolved beside death. Romantic love has been made the most important basis for marriage. Marriage is also a commitment and agreement of both men and women. Certainly, in the modern world, the meaning of marriage is become more complicated. Marriage is primary union which made good economic sense. People are pushing the trend into an amorality society. Same-sex couples are pursuing the right to be married. Unfortunately, a legal recognition didnât allow same-sex to be married, it will change the meaning of marriage extremely differ. In addition, higher divorce rates many children will not be raised in a traditional family unit. The meaning of marriage never define, it is changing as the times change. As society changes, the institution of marriage changes as well.

It is just a list, so you can write a personal list any way that is helpful for you. However, if it is in a resume, essay or other more formal piece of writing, then you must concern yourself with parallel structure. It is unnecessary to use 'be':

Middling. Some grammatical and spelling errors, and a less applicable style. Fairly well supported, but examples are not analysed to link to the question. Maybe a B+?

NO doubt that watching TV has become a daily habit for both children and adult. Television is considered as a two sides effect instrument. In fact, watching TV can be very useful for viewers. But we can not deny the truth that it has a lot of bad effects especially on children. That is clearly obvious in the violence scene which are shown on its screen. Television violence affects all who view it, but its biggest effect is on children. Childrenâs minds are like a blank page. Television is writing violence on that page. Television violence is one of the causes of aggression and violent behavior in children.

Recent researches indicates that young children up to 6 year watch TV in average of 60 hours in a week. Those hours decrease to 6,5 a day when entering a school and so on. Accordingly, children spend more time in watching TV than in schools. As a result of long time of watching, children are exposed to violent scenes .With the regular watching, a child get used to those scenes. This causes him acclimation of the feeling in danger. Moreover, it causes the child to accept the idea that violence is the perfect mean solve problems. There will be no way to negotiate with others. It is only hands which do the job. Additionally, he tries to do whatever he sees on that small screen through imitation. By the pass of the time, this may turn him to be a real criminal .

In the final analysis, we got to the truth that television has a great affects on our children. Mostly, they are bad effects. It even can turn them into criminals or murderers. So that we should pay more attention to what they watch to protect them from its dangers. It is our duty as elder, wise and responsible people.

Would you pls. check my writing!!!

Toto.. — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 03:00:21 GMT

Hi everyone..How are you all...I am back today >>I need you check my writing down here
*Can this be a descriptive essay??
*What about grammar and spelling??
*** If you have any advice >>I would be happy to know.

Through out our life ,we always meet different types of people. Some we like and may be we do not like some others. But definitely ,there are others who we really admire even if they are few. We keep them deep in hearts and minds .One of those most admirable people I ever met is my elder brother ,Jimmy. He has a great personality and a lot of good characteristics. For instance, I am going to write about two noticeable characteristics which are: his role as member in our family and his great efforts in his practical life.

   when talking about his role in our family, three sisters , three brothers and a beloved mom ,it is clear that Jamal feels that every member of us is his responsibility .To illustrate, he keeps doing his best to support every one of us whenever we need help .Moreover, he tries to lead us the safe shore of life through advice and actions. All that due to his warm heart especially with mother. He never says "No" to her what ever she asked .Accordingly, I believe that is the secret which makes him admired by every one around him. Truly, I can call him the" man of our family".

   On the other hand, Jimmy is a hard worker. His great efforts in job is always remarked and respected by others .He never satisfy with what he had reached. But that does not mean that he is eager or mean. On the contrary, he tries his best to proof himself and to improve his work to benefit himself and others in the same time. Although of all that ,he still the most humble and kind person not only for me but for everyone knew him.

To summarize , Jimmy is one of the most admirable people I ever known. That because of his great characteristics which are difficult to be found in a person within our current life. Therefore, I am proud to say that "Jimmy is my brother".

Hi Neung,

I've made some corrections to your essay. Any corrections I made are now in red letters. If you have any questions about what I mean, or would like a more detailed explanation on why something was incorrect, please ask. We'll try to answer.

My name is Jeerapun Khunsopa and My (don't capitalize 'my') nickname is Nueng. I 'm 22 years old. I was born in Suphan Buri province and move (should be 'moved', since it's in the past) to Bangkok, ~~this is~~ (remove the words 'this is', and add a comma after Bangkok) a big city, (add another comma) with my family when I was nine years old. I graduated from Bangkapi school of fishing. My favorite websites are Google, Yahoo! <... some URLs removed by a mod.> I enjoy visiting tourists attractions and traveling. I also enjoy reading, going to movies and watching TV. I'm very interested in politics. I am following the presidential race in my county. I'm also interested in the global warming crisis and alternative sources of energy, such as solar and wind power. My dream job would be to run a successful Internet company that helped people. I have visited Cambodia,Cannada, (correct spelling is 'Canada', with only 1 'n') Hong kong, (capitalize 'k' in 'Kong') Laos and Mexico. I went to Chiang Mai on my last vacation. It was great! ~~and~~ (remove the word 'and' to avoid a sentence fragment) I do not have any pets, but I wish that I had a dog. My house does not allow pets. I have two brothers and one sister. If I won a million Baht, I would travel around the world. I would really like to visit Japan. My hight (correct spelling is 'height) is 173 and My weight is 64. My blood type is B and My (don't capitalize 'my') hobbies is ('hobbies' is plural, you need the plural verb 'are' instead) Listen (this should be 'listening' instead of 'listen, and don't capitalize it) to the radio, and (since there are only 2 hobbies, remove the comma and add the word 'and') read (this should be 'reading' instead of 'read') catoon. My address is Bangkapi

Neung, I think this was very good work for your first writting attempt. You did have a few very minor mistakes, but you still did quite well.

One more thing to remember, is that when you're typing things on the Internet, always put 2 spaces after a sentence, instead of one, to make them easier to read. This is a very minor thing, but it does make all writing a little easier to read, (even if it's written correctly!)

New2G, be careful - my teenagers frequently get into trouble with their school essays when they can't stay in one tense.

I don't really understand why native speakers will get into trouble for switching tenses. Isn't it part of everyday speech which is why they do tense switching in their essays in the first place?

I understand that even native speakers make spelling mistakes and occasional subject-verb agreement mistakes. But I don't think I've heard or seen any native speaker make tense mistakes. Oh..it's very likely because I don't know tense switching well enough. Could you give an real world example of a tense switching mistake committed by a native? I don't believe they woudl say "Yesterday, I see a man" or I graduate last year"

Sorry, If I'm asking a lot.
Thanks in advance.

A few changes are needed to tidy up the grammar/spelling, but otherwise I think your opening paragraph is fine.

According to ~~the~~ recent research, ~~there are~~ 50 to 100 million of animals worldwide, from ~~Zebra-fish~~ zebra fish [?] to non-human primates, are used in scientific experiments. Yet at the same time, the question of whether humans should conduct experiments on animals is subject to much debate. Some ~~one~~ think it is beneficial for humans while others argue that it should be ~~band~~ banned. I agree with the former view, but with reservations.

To be perfectly honest, I don't know which of "zebra-fish", "zebra fish" and "zebrafish" are accepted spellings. Possibly all three are OK. But since I was de-capitalising it anyway I changed it to the spelling given in Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary.
