Scared Straight: Praises, Critiques, and Alternatives Beginning in the late 1970’s the Scared Straight program and programs modelled after it have been a popular method of rehabilitation for juvenile delinquents.

After reading "scared to death" and "wolf family values" I think the second article gave better reasoning behind why we should protect the wolf population. Both articles talk of the wolves return to Yellowstone national park, but the first essay "scared to death" by Ed Yong focuses on the wolves effect on the elk population. The second essay "wolf family values" by Sharon Levy focuses mainly on the wolves and their population and changes of their behavior because of hunting and trying to manage the
The Scared Straight Program The recent media obsession with the scared straight program, juvenile boot camps and other scare tactics has lead to the question as to whether they actually are beneficial or not in treating adolescent criminal recidivism. On television programs like Maury (Pauvich) the answer to treating the troubled young girls who are brought to the show is boot camp. Those in charge take these girls to prisons, dangerous streets at night and often morgues to make a visual argument

This children’s book is titled “The Scared Baby Rabbit” which was both written and illustrated by myself. The plot of this story starts with a little baby rabbit that was unable to find her mother, fearing the interaction of other animals, not wanting to ask for help. Eventually, the baby rabbit was able to overcome her fears and ask a lion and bear for help, telling them her situation which allowed for her mother to be found. The moral of this story is that at times asking for help can be beneficial
In “Scared to Death,” Ed Yong tells us about the affect wolves have had on the elk population. This comes after the absence of wolves in Yellowstone. Yong says, “In January 1995, the grey wolves returned to Yellowstone national Park, almost 70 years after they had been exterminated by an over enthusiastic predator-control program,” (ll1-2). This new introduction of wolves has had monumetous effect on the overly populated elk. John Laundre, who had been watching the elk, describes this effect
Throughout history, religion held a strong meaning in people’s eyes; the theme Christianity seemed to be the mere focus as it was actually the only religion thoroughly presented in the post-colonial era. It is not surprising, then, that Beloved by Toni Morrison is a novel that expresses itself by having a correlation link with Christianity and the Old/New Testaments. While this novel has been subject to numerous interpretations, Beloved is seen as a sacred character that initializes her closely to
Michele Amitrano Michele's compassion is his most prominent characteristic that makes him appealing to the reader. Throughout the novel, he exhibits empathy well beyond his years, often making readers forget that he is just nine. This can be seen clearly in three main instances. First, when he goes after his sister when she has fallen over (pg. 4) despite his own fears. Secondly, offering to complete the forfeit in place of Barbra when Skull forces her to complete an embarrassing forfeit. Finally
Scared in the black cold night Everyone has had an experience of being scared at least a few times in their life. Being scared is like a double edged sword, getting scared can be good and increase blood flow and adrenaline, but getting scared to death can be restricting and cause panic. Some people cannot even go into dark places, or swim in water when they cannot see the bottom, simply from being scared of the unknown. Other people fall into certain categories of being scared and have lifelong fears
Beyond Scared Straight: A Fixed Mindset In a 2008 Sally Forth comic strip, Sally attempted to offer her daughter some encouragement before taking her final exams. She declared, “You’re going to ace your finals, sweetie.” Sally expanded on this explaining, “And you know how I know? Because you’re the smartest, most gifted, brilliant kid there is!” Her daughter responded with, “You’d say the same thing if I were a full-blown idiot, wouldn’t you?” Sally replied with, “I guess you’ll never know” (Marciuliano
“I’m not scared explores the notion that only the strong will thrive.” Discuss. Thrive v.i. grow well; flourish, prosper. The characters in ‘I’m not scared’ are living, not thriving. They’re all weak in different ways and their strength is dying slowly. All of the characters have an individual battle with weakness. Many of the characters appear to be strong but are really just helpless beings, existing in a place where the strength comes from violence and abuse. Often the truly strong characters
Post hardcore band Get Scared, released their third studio album, Demons, on October 30, this year. Bomber, from Bombshellzine, says music producer, Erik Ron, has also worked with bands such as Saosin and Panic! At the Disco (Bomber).

Scared Straight into Conformity Scared Straight was a documentary that followed teens that were getting in trouble for various crimes. Since the beginning of the semester, I repeatedly said that in order to fix the problem, rehabilitation needs to start with the youth, this program did just that. It allowed teens that was on a path to incarceration, to take a look at what their future held if their actions did not change. I believe the program for the lifers did just that, helped the teens and in
