it’s unlikely to hear it described as being an easy task. Nadia Bozak’s short story "Heavy Metal Housekeeping" encourages the idea that good parenting is defined by the ability to sacrifice one’s own freedom and desires with the intention of providing the child with better opportunities in life.

This theory holds that the universe is unchanging‚ it has no beginning and no end. 2. Big Bang Theory – presupposes that the vast universe grew out of something where all matter and energy were compressed to infinite density and heated to trillions of degrees (a beginning which was an immensely small particle of high-density

The world’s population is increasing at an alarming rate‚ therefore more and more food is required. The forests are being destroyed and more land is being cultivated‚ thus destroying the environment. Besides this the tribal population is removing trees to practise shifting cultivation and for fuel. To fulfill the demands of the urban population the forest cover is being destroyed. We need to conserve our forests as it preserves the ecological diversity and our life support system- water‚ air and
