For some families‚ scene two is where a lot of star performances are displayed. I can remember one of my family gatherings where the fairytale in scene one was interrupted by a bloody fist fight that two of my cousins were engaged in.

Are actors and professional athletes paid too much? 4. Should teachers have to wear uniforms or have a dress code? 5.
