Moderation is the Key (P6Faith)

LRD: 5 Feb 2013
 
A 15-year-old girl, together with her 16-year-old friend in California in the United, drugged her parents by lacing their milkshakes with sleeping pills. They did so as the younger girl’s parents turned off access to the Internet at 10pm every night and they wanted to use the Internet.  Both the girls have been arrested by the police.
 
When one becomes consumed with something, it becomes an addiction. Having easy access to the Internet, Singaporeans find it convenient to spend time online, and sometimes, too much. Signs of possible addiction include “losing track of how much time one spends online; feeling irritable when access is disrupted; and feeling guilty about Internet use.
 
 
Post your comments on:
1. What do you think of the behavior of the 15-year-old girl and her 16-year-old friend?
2. Do you agree with what they have done to their parents? Why or why not?

no,i do not agree.they should not drug their parents as if they give too much drug to their parents,their parents may die.they should have asked for permission instead of drugging their parents so that they can use the computer.
ps.they should not spend a lot of time using the computer.they can go out to play or revise.

i do not agree with what they have done to their parents.If they did not use the right amount of sleeping pills then,the 15-year-old girl's parents could have died.Furthermore,they could have just asked their parents for permission.This shows that they do not love their parents.

1.I think what they are doing is wrong.
2.I do not agree what they have shown that they could do simply ANYTHING just to use the internet.One should be able to have fun,but there should always be a limit.Drugging the parents just to use the internet is a sign that they are addicted to the internet.

2. No, I don't agree. It is very bad to do it.

(2.)No,They could have used the computers longer when they are on vacation.If the parents are being drugged or have not found out that they are drugged ,they could drug them every night and could overdose them on one of these nights.They could lock the computers up in a safe area they do not know.

They have bad behaviour. They should not become addicted to the internet.

Veronica Peol, 6 Hum said...

They are really spoilt. They should not have done those bad things to their parents as they were the ones who took care of them since they were born.
No, I do not agree as they should spend time studying to get a better future rather than stay up all night to use the internet.
