Society treats people with mental handicaps badly. I think these people with mental handicaps constantly get made of fun of at school or at the workplace and nobody thinks anything of it. Although I do believe the treatment of people with mental handicaps has improved. It all really comes down to if you’re different than everybody else, when really our differences make us unique.

Society still to this day treats people with mental handicaps as if they are less human then the rest, sometimes without even realizing they are doing it. This happens because they we think they are “different” when in all actuality they deserve the same treatment everyone else receives.

Although it is not as common as it was in the 20th century for men to treat women like objects, women are still not free from being body shamed, put in toxic relationships, and looked down upon compared to men every day. Although most men may not realize what they’re saying, it may be seen as treating women like objects and telling them that they are not people but their just a body to look and judge. There are many micro aggression‘s in our society that have been placed to degrade women. These micro aggressions view women in a different aspect then how men are viewed. Most men are chill and respectful, yes there are still men that treat woman like objects, but our society has come far and hopefully will continue to treat both men and women equally.

Friendship is very important in our lives because it gives us an outlet from things that may be going on within our family. Family is very important, but sometimes there may be things going on that you need a break from, and friends are a great way to have some relief and relaxation. I believe friends provide some of our happiest memories and biggest laughs. Friends overall bring a very positive upbringing to our mental health and overall health, therefore they are very important to our lives.

Writers do not have a responsibility to to address social concerns, but that also doesn’t mean they can’t. Most stories can be written well and be enjoyable without coming close to talking about social concerns. However, if you are writing something that addresses social concerns, it can add to the story. It has to feel natural, because readers can tell when ideas outside of the story are being forced onto them.

Friendship can be a very great thing to have, but there is also a chance that it can be bad. Most people think having friends is the best thing in the world and everything is great when you do have friends. The bad side about having friends is you never know what can happen. People can be very harsh and have no feelings, because of that it can break down trust and all around break down your mental health.

I feel like it depends on what the author is writing. If the writer is writing a historical fiction book or a book set in an earlier period they should at least mention some social concerns. Many authors tend to romanticize the past, making it seem like it was a great time, even though many minorities were struggling for equal rights.

Most people in society without even thinking about it judge others. This is even more prominent when people are different than what we think is “normal”. As a society we tend to treat people with disabilities different, wether it be we stare at them while they are doing their normal thing, we question what is wrong with them, or we help to much and make them feel like they can’t do anything by themselves.

Society still views people with disabilities as weird or irregular. This should not continue to be a thing but it does just because someone is different. Our society likes to make social norms and if you don’t follow them you are consider wrong in a certain way.

The American Dream is to have equal opportunity to succeed regardless of where you were born or what class you were born into. I think today the American Dream is still relevant, just only to those who put the hard work and sacrifice needed to make their lives better. The American Dream is an idea in someone’s head pushing them to find better, making more relevant in people’s minds and less relevant in the everyday world.

Writers do not have a responsibility to address social concerns. For example if you are a fictional writer you are writing to entertain. Maybe you like writing funny stories. You shouldn’t have to inhibit what you like to write about to address something you are not interested in writing about. One of the great things about the profession is that you can choose what you.

Friendship is important because as people, we need social interaction. Friends give you someone to talk to and enjoy life with, instead of being all alone. It makes people happier.

Friendship is important to everyone in our lives because it helps give us someone to talk to and hang out with. It makes us happier to have someone to laugh with and spend time with.
