I am not a very superstitious woman, because I believe in comproved things.  I try to obey some of superstitions, like: I don't walk below stairs because I'm afraid about somethig goes down on my head. I am not very lucky, so I do not play with the chance. In my deffence, if there is something on the stairs, there is a chance this thing goes down and hurts me.
I don't believe in anothers superstitions, but I have fun with them because they don't make sence, like: if you leave your shoes invers your mother will die. Where is the sence?

Dear Host Family,

First of all, I would like to thank you for welcoming me into your home and giving me the opportunity to live this incredible experience of getting to know a new culture and improving my English.

Since I was a little girl, I dreamed of living and studying abroad, and I am very happy to make my dream come true. I think this exchange program will give me more experience and knowledge to achieve my plans. Thank you very much for this opportunity.
Best Regards,
Daniele

I think money doesn't give happy, but money helps. It is impossible for someone to be happy with hungry, living on the streets and unsafe. Money can buy these things.

Money can buy good experiences (like trips, confortable clothes, culture acces, studying acess and healthcare access). So, I think unresponsable to say "we are equal", because we don't have equals chances and the poor people have less access.

The working class should have access to the things that themselves makes, and billionaires are unnecessary in the world.

Thank you for your attention and help.

Does money bring happiness? Daniele Gorski Medeiros

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the feeling of happiness is associated with pleasure, well-being and the perception of success.

It has a lot to do with satisfaction and whether people's expectations are being fulfilled in their lives.

Money can buy many things but it cannot buy true love, loyal friends... I also think that there is a void in our hearts, which only the love of Jesus can fill and no amount of money can buy.

Marcos Mion and Suzana seem to have a healthy relationship, they always support each other when it comes to work and personal life, sharing care for their children. I also think their faith helps them have a healthy relationship.
I have as an example of a toxic relationship Shakira's marriage to Piquet, as he did not support her career and cheated on her with another woman.

1. From where I stand, I think that money can certainly contribute to happiness by providing access to resources and opportunitie.

2. In my opinion, climate change is a global issue and the best way to face this situation is to adopt more drastic and immediate environmental policies to reduce carbon emissions.

3. Personally, I believe that stricter gun control measures are necessary, such as background checks and bans on certain types of firearms, to reduce gun violence.

Jacirema's opinion on spanking to educate children

# data[].attributes.subject
Jacirema's opinion on spanking to educate children

# data[].attributes.body
I firmly believe that there are better alternatives to educating children in opposition to physical punishment.

It is essential to recognize that children are human beings that deserve the same respectful behavior as we must have with adults. As we can see, children who experience physical punishment may also internalize aggressive behavior, as they may perceive it as an acceptable means of resolving conflicts.

I believe in methods focused on teaching children the necessary skills to understand and manage their emotions and actions. They promote critical thinking, empathy, and self-regulation, which are competencies that can lead children to a reflexive way to understand the world.

In addition, advocating for non-violent discipline does not mean relinquishing parental authority. Parents and caregivers can set clear boundaries, provide consistent consequences, and offer guidance without resorting to physical harm. Finally, I stress that using physical punishment as a means of educating children is an outdated and harmful practice that should be replaced by more effective and humane alternatives.

Example of healthy relationship: Former U.S. President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle Obama, are one of the most admired couples in the world. They have been married since 1992 and have two daughters. Their relationship is marked by mutual support, respect, and partnership. They often share stories of how they faced challenges together during their political careers and how they continue to support each other in their post-presidential initiatives.

Example of unhealthy relationship: Whitney Houston, one of the most talented singers of all time, had a tumultuous relationship with Bobby Brown, also a singer. They married in 1992 and faced issues related to substance abuse and problematic behavior. This had a negative impact on both of their careers and health. Their relationship is often cited as an example of an unhealthy relationship marked by significant challenges.

# data[].attributes.body
Healthy relationships: my example of a healthy relationship is the family of Elisama Santos (www.elisamasantos.com.br), author of the book "Nonviolent Education". On the internet, she shares moments from everyday family life and give tips of non-violent education. I realize that it's a daily exercise and that a healthy relationship involves respecting the other person's place, whoever that other person may be. In all areas of life, we need to be concerned with non-violent communication/education.

Unhealthy relationships: There are many examples in the media of unhealthy relationships. However, I would like to comment on a practice that is becoming more widespread today (https://bhaz.com.br/noticias/variedades/noiva-se-vinga-no-altar-att/). It's the attitude of exposing the other person for something negative they've done in the relationship. It's an attitude of spectacularizing the fact in order to ridicule the person, which is reaching place on the internet.

Healthy relationship: Molly and Arthur Weasley are wizards in Harry Potter movies. They are a happy couple who live on a farm and have seven kids. They are always together, love their family and are good people with muggles.

Unhealthy relationship: Neymar is a Brazilian soccer player (Al-Hilal - Saudi Arabia), Bruna Merquezini's ex boyfriend and Bruna Biancardi's boyfriend. Supposedly, Neymar cheated Bruna Biancardi while she is pergnant by him on Valentine's Day and in this week in Spain. In september 19th, Bruna Biancardi posted in her Instagram: "I know about what happened and I'm desapointed one more time. But, at the end of my pregnancy, my foccus and worrys are directionated to my doughter and I will think only about this in this moment."
