What adults can learn from kids

One of Adora Svitak's points in her video was that adults blame children for being irresponsible, however adults more times than children are the irresponsible ones. Take the topic of child abuse for example. A parents job is to love and take good care of their child however those who choose to abuse their children are acting irresponsibly and because of this the child may grow up to also be irresponsible. Adults are also highly hypocritical. For example, adults such as parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles ect, tell children not to smoke cigarettes. Yet THEY are the ones who smoke, even though they tell us not to. Adora also says that children are much smarter than they are given credit for, its just that sometimes adults expect too much out of children. If adults could learn to be better role models, then it will cause the future generations to also be good role models and better the world for years to come.

Poem

I am used every day by millions around the world
Yet I am not appreciated
I help complete assignments
Yet I am not appreciated
Without me you would not be able to pass in school
Yet I am not appreciated
I am carelessly left in places throughout the school
I am a pen. And I am unappreciated

Courage

On April 15th 2013 the infamous "Boston Marathon Bombing" happened. I personally didn't show courage that day, but all of the police officers and firefighters did. And even some civilians showed courage by donating blood or by helping move those who were injured in the explosion to some place safe. The police officers and fireman however showed the most courage by working pretty much 24/7 for the few days after the bombing trying to capture those who did it. They risked their lives for 5 days just to ensure the safety of the public. They could've been shot at any given moment and their families would lose them. The courage that those men and women showed during that week will never be forgotten by the people of Boston and the people of America and i truly admire and thank each and every one for displaying such great courage.
