There are many arguments as to who is responsible for the corruption of the American family. The blame has jumped from history, to lifestyle, and then to sexual preference. For instance, homosexuality is frowned upon because people think it destroys the sanctity of marriage. Single mothers were at one point chastised for bringing fatherless children into the world. As time progresses, men are seen less and less as the "head" of the household. People have taken comfort in knowing that they can survive without having to play "their roles" in life. The American family no longer consists of a mom, dad, brother, sister, and dog. A person's family can be whatever that person chooses it to be and America loves that. If this were not preferred to the traditional idea of family, then it would be changed. Almost every family has tainted or twisted this tradition in some way or another, therefore, everyone and everything is responsible for the fall of The American Family. America has changed, and because of that, we can only change with it.

Welcome Post ENG 101 CG

Hi, my name is Candice and this is my blog page. I would like to welcome all of you into my thoughts and I hope that you enjoy them. I have never had a blog page before, so this is a little new to me, please bear with me.

English has always been my favorite subject growing up, that may be because math is like a foreign language in my book. Seriously though, in my mind, a letter cannot equal a number. However, letter's can formulate into an essay that may make you laugh or cry. That same essay might motivate you to change your life, or begin to live it. Who has ever heard of an algebraic equation making anyone wonder is ignoring the homeless person on the bus was the right thing to do today? Exactly!

With that being said, I just want to let everyone know that I am so excited we are doing this and I look forward to reading everyone's blog. Yaaaayyyyy! Thanks for stopping by.
