money to a few to disperse of in a way they see fit to help the race. Most Americans are not willing to give up such a large sum of money as noble and respectable of an idea as it is. I think that Carnegie’s plan, in theory, would work and would be best for the race. I do not think it is practical because most would rather spoil their own family with inheritance than give it away to help people unknown to them. Carnegie’s idea of fair is equal opportunities for everyone to help themselves and the
The child’s best interest is a fundamental principle of the Children’s Convention. Explain who decides what is best for a child.

post-divorce (Symons, 2010; Atwood, 2007), 1982 marked the first year where a father in North America was granted sole custody (Amato, 2001). As recently as 1970, there were custodial cases granting sole custody to mothers stating that mothers make the best parents simply because they are mothers (O’Connell, 2007).

holds their interest in what is going on in the classroom. I believe that education is a mix between the two philosophical views, progressivism and essentialism, and the more psychological view, behaviorism. I feel that while the basic subjects need to be stressed in education, students also need to explore other areas of interest, in other words, be self-guided in areas they find stimulating.

The four principles for effective negotiation are to 1) separate the people from the problem; 2) focus on interests rather than positions; 3) generate variety of options before settling on an agreement; and 4) insist that the agreement be based on objective criteria.
