FEAR

FEAR.
When you were a child and you did something bad your first feeling was being afraid of your
parents. The fear of being punished made you not do bad things and taught you from wrong and
right. A child who does not receive punishment from their parents has bad behaviour problems and
has no sense of right from wrong.
Fear of God. Religion tells people that if they do bad things they will go to hell; many people
won't do anything wrong because they believe they are watched by God all of the
time.
Fear of going to Many people won't commit a crime because they are afraid of being sent to jail
jail. and only in a very desperate situation will people commit crime or if they think
they can out smart the police.
Fear of another If a person is much bigger than you then you are more likely to give that person
person. more respect because of the fear of being hurt by this person.
Fear of society. People don't like to be different from the majority of a society because of being
outcast. If most people are not wearing shoes then the rest would choose not to
wear shoes as well.
Fear of death. People's biggest fear is death and people will do anything to stay alive, if people
were given a choice to kill another person to save their own life they most likely
kill the other person.
Free will is to do whatever you want to do when you feel like doing it and saying whatever you want
to say. But if we did not fear anything from death, government and even other people how will this
effect society? In your group give your opinion if fear is what makes us good people or only good
people fear and bad people don't fear at all despite how severe the punishment is?

DISCIPLINE OR ABUSE
 This is a topic for open discussion about real situations in life.
New words to learn; "Spanking," "punching," "abuse," and "child abuse." Spanking is when a child
is very naughty and you want to punish him by slapping his bottom. Child abuse is when a parent
does horrible things to a child such as punching which is closing your fist and striking the child's
face or body.
A woman was walking down the street with her child and the child started to be naughty so she
gave him a spank on the bottom. While this was happening another woman witnessed this and
called the police to arrest the mother for child abuse.
The topic is: Is spanking a child for being naughty child abuse? If it is child abuse then how should
the mother punish the child?
Some parents who don't believe in spanking or hitting say they reason with the child but can you
reason with a two year old child?
The people who I know whose parents never spanked them were spoilt little brats who were out of
control and my father would take off his belt whenever I was bad. The other children who were
never spanked had serious drug problems but I never did. Is this because I was spanked and they
weren't or would there be another reason for their drug problem?
Immunization is when you give children medicine to stop them from getting terrible diseases but it
is with a needle in the arm.
Some parents are now saying that their children should not be given any immunization because
the needle hurts them. When they were asked about what would happen if they were to catch the
disease, they responded by saying "those diseases don't exist anymore."
Are these parent right and what is your opinion?

objects they should be paid equally?

Student 2 You are not that happy about this because your privacy will be taken away from you.
Photographers are going to try to take pictures while you are at home and they won't let
you keep your privacy.
Student 3 Because you play the drums, you won't be as known as the singer so you can still have
some privacy and yet enjoy the money you are going to make.
Teacher You are the host of a music television show and you are interviewing the band on what
it is like to be famous all of a sudden.
Group 9
Scenario There is nothing more devastating then losing your legs. One of you has been in a
terrible car accident and the doctor has just cut your legs off. You are a group of friends
giving the student support during this hard time.
Student 1 You have just woken up and to your surprise, your legs are missing. You ask your
friends and the doctor what has happened as you can't remember the accident.
Student 2 You explain to him/her that he/she has been in a car accident and her/his legs were
crushed so badly that they had to be cut off. You try to tell him/her that their life is not
 over and he/she can still do many things with their life.
Student 3 You don't know how to be brave in this situation and you cry saying that it is all your
fault because you were driving the car.
Teacher You are the doctor who had to amputate the first student's legs due to the fact that the
car had crushed them. You advise him/her on how to get on in life with a wheel chair
and despite of not being able to walk, she/he can still have a good life.
Group 10
Scenario Because people want to be beautiful, they have surgery done to their faces to try to be
more attractive. Because this procedure is very expensive, the first student has gone to
a very cheap doctor and is not very good.
Student 1 You want to be beautiful but without paying so much money. Because the doctor is bad,
your face now became uglier.
Student 2 You told him/her not to have surgery because you never had trusted the doctor. You try
to give some comfort to the first student even though he/she is even uglier.
Student 3 You are the nurse and you will lie to him/her by saying that it is not that bad as they
think it is. Though, the doctor has done this many times and has always made bad
mistakes to people's faces.
Teacher You are the doctor and yet again you have totally screwed up someone's face so you
will try to convince them that they are not ugly at all. You say to them that in a few days,
it will get better but that is a lie.
