Nevertheless, there are people who don’t understand the way of not using violence to manage problems. These people need help to make them think why violence is never an option and incorporate them into a healthy lifestyle. They are not aware of how bad the abusive way is for them and for the people around them. The only way to stop abusive people is for them to no longer try to control those they love. This goal includes educating our kids by showing them a peaceful and respectful life inside and outside the house. 

If you are a victim of abusive treatments don’t feel tied up to anyone, get some help, professional or not. Every support is necessary and do not wait for the abuse to get worse.

Remember, love doesn’t include abuse.

Terrorism is probably the worst problem nowadays. If we want to end it, we have to prevent.

It’s known that it is too difficult, but many organizations like United Nations (UN) have recently approved an strategy against terrorism. It contains a lot of  great initiatives to avoid it, but I think these are the most useful of them: 

-To establish voluntary assistance systems to meet the needs of victims of terrorism and their families.

-To modernize borders and customs control systems and to improve the safety of travel documents to prevent the movement of terrorists and the traffic of dangerous materials.

-To improve the cooperation of countries to combat the financing of terrorism.

It’s going to be a long way to end it, but I think that there will be a day when we will enjoy our lives without being scared of a terrorism attack.

On the one hand, the most important advantage is Removal of Criminals From Society. Thanks to life imprisonment, citizens are able to feel safe because they know that truly dangerous criminals are no longer allowed to walk the streets.

On the other one, the main disadvantage is, Prison Does Not Rehabilitate, in many instances, a person who is forced to spend their life in prison does not learn about the consequences of their actions. Having to rub shoulders with other career criminals can lead to an increase in disciplinary infractions on the inside and erode a person’s better instincts.

In short, life imprisonment, is a term that create many conflicts. To many people this is necessary for the society but there are people who don’t think the same.
