Some mothers in the neighbor hood take time out of there summers to make food on the corner of the block to give to the children and allow them to play, giving the children other things to do rather than participating in illegal and devious activities that ultimately lowers crime. ]]> 2023-04-14 14:03:53 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554588691 3262725 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554588700 2023-04-14 14:03:53 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554588700 3262885 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554589061 In the article "Fear Prompts Teens to Act Impulsively", Laura Sanders shared an experiment that was conducted to display brain development during teen years. This "in-between" stage of brain development causes teens to react to situations impulsively, which in the article's case, lead to crime.]]> 2023-04-14 14:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554589061 3262265 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554589546 The idea of "love at first sight" is widely debated among many, with both emotional and scientific factors coming into play. In some cases, instant infatuation is a short-lived delusion, while initial attraction in other cases can develop into a sincere relationship. Ultimately, the feeling of love is extremely difficult to measure and varies greatly.]]> 2023-04-14 14:04:38 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554589546 3262265 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554590406 Audre Lord's "Hanging Fire" is a poem that describes a teenage girl's struggle with puberty. The speaker's developed feelings for the boy she "cannot live without" are seemingly exciting and anew, but at the same time naive and immature.]]> 2023-04-14 14:05:24 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554590406 3263245 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554592267 2023-04-14 14:07:01 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554592267 3262265 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554600264 Nina Totenberg's article "Do Juvenile Killers Deserve Life Behind Bars?" details the debate of how to treat minors in cases of homicide. Some believe that as younger people's brains are physically and mentally less developed, they have a better chance at rehabilitation and deserve more pardon in their crime. However, others think that murder is inexcusable no matter the case, and do not believe that even juveniles should receive parole in these incidents.]]> 2023-04-14 14:13:31 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2554600264 3262725 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2557116957 The article goes through the overall idea of teenage crushes and how they can affect a teenager's life and mind. As said in the article, a teenage crush is an early approximation of love and it should be treated seriously.  A romantic crush can have a more risky side; for example, it can influence a person to act out in self-endangering ways just to please a crush. An identity crush is more of of admiring someone that one wants to become like. Although romantic crushes seem more heartfelt, they don't last as long because usually the feeling wears off. The article "Love at First Sight" has the main idea of debating if love at first sight is a real thing. The article states that it is more of an illusion and a way to sugarcoat lust. There is also studies that show it's a moment of initial attraction and more of an excitement. These articles overall main idea is first love and the excitement that it has to ones mind. As for "Hanging Fire", the poem mentions the crush of the speaker, with said speaker presumably being an adolescent girl. As her crush "still sucks his thumb in secret", the speaker struggles with her feelings since she recognizes that her love and her crush are both immature.]]> 2023-04-17 14:55:14 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2557116957 3262885 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2557150224 These articles about crime all connect to the main theme of "coming of age" because they all surround the topic of teens committing crime. In "Fear Prompts Teens to Act Impulsively", the main topic is about teen brain development having a heavy impact on their ability to make poor impulsive decisions that lead to crime. Brain development and maturity is a huge factor in "coming of age" to an adult. In the article "Reclaiming Chicago", the main idea surrounds how some of these acts of teen gang violence could be resolved peacefully by interfering and giving these teens something to do with their lives to get out of the dangerous lifestyle of gang activity. This connects to the main topic because of the rise of concern for teenage gang activity. In "Do Juvenile Killers Deserve Life Behind Bars?", the idea that teenagers' brain development can affect their ability to mentally recover in prison from their poor choices connects to the main theme of "coming of age" because of how teens sometimes don't know any better when they make decisions that could affect their entire future.]]> 2023-04-17 15:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2557150224 3262725 https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2557153572 Our prediction for Romeo and Juliet is growing up and the obstacles that come along such as love,relationships and crime. These articles relate the most to our claim because they show the main ideas on how the teens are affected by these obstacles. We believe in Romeo and Juliet we will come across love, relationships and crime. ]]> 2023-04-17 15:19:23 UTC https://padlet.com/3262265/jpvdtia6ad1hb5sa/wish/2557153572
