It's Time To Stay In High School
Anderson, IN , a place full of bad and disrespectful kids who are more worried about being cool , doing drugs , and not going to school Instead of enjoying their teenage life the right way and going to school to have a successful life. Madison county has a lot to do with this problem and should actually be very ashamed about it , as being in high school i hear a lot from older generations that school & anderson are’nt the same that school is’nt fun like it use to be and that anderson use to have a lot of fun things to do . Anderson expects kids to come to school 8 hours a day, 5 days out of our week, but can’t at least make school a more interesting place to be at.?

Madison county most likely locks up a lot of kids a day , and my opinion it is because kids have nothing else to do here, but be bored, which

Is it a big deal for us to have a little bit of fun ? a bigger mall ,more places to go shopping , more places to eat , go karting , laser tagging , water parks .? Everything small Anderson gets gets taken away in a blink of an eye mostly because kids don't know how to act, but discipline has to come in somewhere every child doesn't deserve to be bored in their own town , and 5/10 of those kids could turn around in a better way with just a little bit of a distraction from the bad things out in the streets and the other 5 of those kids most likely just likes that hood lifestyle and nothing can change them.

Kids in Anderson only have a couple things to do , and eventually, after a while it gets very boring. Anderson has ONE movie theater that gets packed every weekend with kids and adults , what adults want to be around children 24/7 ? i don’t know any . Children here need their own places to hang out with but Madison county would rather spend their money on new street lights which were fine the way they were instead of creating a distraction for the

    The Town of Center Grove

    • 1018 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Should Center Grove become its own town? Or should Center Grove not become a town? This topic has been the center of much debate recently as can be seen by all of those signs in people’s yards. My neighbors on both sides of me have posted signs in the yards expressing their opinion on whether or not Center Grove should become a town. One neighbor has a sign in his yard that says “Vote YES”. My other neighbor has a sign that says “No for Center Grove”. The issue is in the minds of all the people in Center Grove and for some, it has become very divisive. In my opinion, Center Grove should not be a town. The main reason is to prevent the increase of property taxes. Center Grove as a town would have to increase property taxes for the following areas: Cost associated with establishment of a town government; Taking over the cost of the maintenance of roads and infrastructure. The result of increased property taxes will be the loss of personal income, and those on fixed retirement incomes will be impacted the most.…

    Whitewater kayaking and rafting, fishing, hiking, hunting, camping, paddle boarding, biking, horseback riding are just a few of the activities that attract people from all over the world. If you went to Bryson City, NC this is the Bryson City you would see. However, The beautiful scenery and the diverse people these activities attract don't reflect the true nature of Swain County and only reveal the impact the younger generation is having upon Swain County.

    My name is Destiny Knott, my family and I have recently moved into a house overlooking the park in the neighborhood of Park Hall. I would like to draw your attention to some of the lewd and lascivious acts that take place daily in Park Hall. On many separate occasions up to several times a day, I have noticed from my window or front porch a crowd of undesirable individuals sitting on the benches. Numerous times these individuals have been seen drinking alcohol and carrying on very loudly, using the foulest kind of language. On another occasion my family and I have witnessed a violent fight occur right in front of the park where all of our children play. It is an outrage that our young innocent children should have to listen to and witness such inappropriate displays of behavior.…

    Emery is very different from the school I went to for middle school in regards to the social and economic dynamic of the two schools. Most of the kids that went to my middle school were in the working class or lower middle class. At my old school, I was able to see first hand, the struggles my fellow classmates faced on a daily basis, compared to my own blessed and privileged life. Some of the kids at my old school couldn’t afford a basic five dollar meal, something that most kids at our school will never have to experience. The problem is that most of the kids that go to Emery never have to see what happens to those individuals who are in these situations.…

    When I think of my hometown I think people being shot, robbed, and raped. One of the biggest problems in our town was a man being given the death penalty for raping and mutilating a woman. When you cross the line between Albany and Leesburg, it is like stepping from a gang movie into Sweet Home Alabama. Albany is the murderous blood stricken world of gangs and thugs. Lee County is where I grew up and it just is not what it was when I started going to school there. I would never want my child to be raised in what Lee County has turned into in the past few years.…

    nding on the area of living Anderson can be very peaceful at times, even quiet at times. Although, Anderson isn’t very violent, we do have multiple tragedies throughout the year that could be prevented. One major problem with Anderson is the fact that so many teens want to gang bang and act like gangsters because that’s what they see on Youtube or Tv. A lot of kids get robbed and/or shot because they want to sell Marijuana, or other drugs. Too many kids lack discipline and proper care, they want to live the same “Thug Life” they see on Tv. Another major problem is the lack of discipline these kids are receiving, Parents need to realize how their kid are acting is because of lack of discipline.…

    Not a day goes by where our national media doesn’t report on stories involving heinous and criminal acts committed by juveniles in the United States. Juvenile delinquency is a fact of life – ranging from minor status offenses to unimaginable acts of violence. When dealing with young offenders, there are always difficult decisions to make concerning appropriate punishments that take both public safety and the needs of the juvenile into account. In response to a recognizable increase in youth crime, getting tough on juvenile delinquency and holding young offenders more accountable has been the national trend in the past two decades (Brinks, 2004). Many argue that removing juveniles from the environment in which their crimes were committed is the most successful deterrent of future negative behavior. But what does secure confinement provide these…

    Usually the underlying issues are mental illness or drug and alcohol addiction. Massachusetts being as progressive as it is even has drug court for juveniles. This is fantastic for many reasons. Most adults would be quick to dismiss juveniles as delinquent, misguided youth who will always be resigned to a life of crime.

    We need to ensure these children are at the facility or group home best fitted and beneficial to their specific needs. Due to overcrowding, many are just placed where there is the room with little to no rehabilitation. With West Virginia ranking highest and having almost twice the national average of incarcerated youth, overcrowding is a huge issue. It not only hinders those needing rehabilitation from receiving it, it causes other issues as well. When you have too many youth offenders in cramped areas there is often more outburst, verbally as well as…

    Instead of the clean streets and parks we should have, we have fast food cups, plastic bags, food wrappers, etc on the side of the road. It makes the town look rundown and dirty. The litter even gives a reputation of the town being bad, along with other ways as well. There’s a fine of up to $2500 if you get caught littering. No one has that type of money laying around. Just because we don’t get caught doesn’t mean we should do it .…

    Living in Small Town

    • 444 Words

    Some people love to live in a small town for only one reason: it is simple and peaceful. People who live in a small town don not need all the modern machines for entertainment. They prefer talking to their neighbor than sitting in the living room and watching TV. It also reminds me about a small town near Canada that I have visited three month ago. There is a lovely coffee shop in that town. The interesting thing was when I went to that shop, I saw a lot of people sitting there and chatting with their friends. Some parents took their kids there to play with another. You can rarely see that picture in a big city.…
