What is a hero?
How is Eleanor Roosevelt a Hero Like Brian?
Life is always changing, at anytime a miracle or a disaster can happen. When a disaster hit FDR and left him with polio, it looked like his life was over. Instead of being devastated and depressed his wife, Eleanor Roosevelt, helped her husband in every way. She would travel around the country taking her husband's responsibilities. She would inspire the troops or help with his nation changing movement. A hero is a person who gives back and inspires others; Eleanor easily fits these both, as she is a true hero.
Child labor legalization.
More than 150 million children around the world are working jobs daily (International Labour Organization). Many of these jobs are dangerous. Many of these children are underpaid and abused. Many of these children are not getting an education. When thinking of child labor many bad ideas come to mind, but they don’t need to. Children have been working since the beginning of mankind, only in the 19th century children were not allowed to work in factories, but children still worked other jobs. Working other jobs children continued to help financially. Child labor should be legalized in America for children over eight years of age in non-hazardous conditions.
Poem for you.
Violets are blue
This is a poem just for you
You have been there since day one
Each and everyday has been so much fun,
And I'm proud to call myself your son
You are my hero
I loved you since I was Zero
I think that you're cooler than Robert De Niro
You have always been there when I was sad
You might have been the reason I have gotten mad,
But I couldn't have asked for a better dad
I'm the cub and you're the lion
Without you I'd be dyin'
I love you Brian
