More and more people are choosing to be vegans for many reasons. Some celebrities decide to eat meat no more to be fresh, to keep fit and stay healthy. Besides, some vegans think eating meat is cruel and against the nature, and they claim that it is not necessary for human survival. Everyone has to choose either to eat meat or eat vegetarian food, and I think there is no wrong if they pick up one side and refuse the other.

Firstly, deciding to eat meat or to become vegans partly depends on religion. For example, Buddhist monks and nuns must not kill animals and eat their meat or other product like oil, eggs and milk. However, people who follow or support Buddhism still can eat meat, and they just have vegetarian diet for some special occasions. Religion is not an obligation; therefore, there is no criteria for people to choose to be vegans or meat eaters.

Secondly, eating meat or vegetarian food is also defined by each person’s favorite. Some people do not like eating meat. Some feel themselves fresher when they eat cereal , vegetable and fruits only. Some want to keep fit and stay healthy, because they think not eating meat can help avoid heart diseases, obesity and many other health problems. On the contrary, some people can bare eating without meat, because meat can give them a lot of energy for their activities.

A number of people may argue that eating animals’ meat is unethical and against the nature. That is definitely not true. It is illegal to kill and eat endangered species; however, eating other kinds of meat is totally acceptable. People’s eating meat is just a part of food chain. Humans are naturally born as omnivorous beings, so it is normal that people eat meat.

In conclusion, eating meat or not depends on people’s selection. There is no creteria to decide what is right or wrong. Pick up your favorite diet, and stay healthy.

The homework debate has been raging for many decades, with no end in sight. Whether homework is necessary or pointless and harmful for students is a big question that people cannot reach an agreement about. In my opinion, homework is helpful for students for the two reason below.

First of all, homework is an effective way for students to recall, revise and apply what they study at school. By doing homework, they can not only remember longer the lessons but also know how to apply what they have learnt at school to deal with their assignments. For these points, homework is totally necessary for students to put theories into practice.

Second of all, doing homework encourages students self-study for the coming lessons. Some teachers prefer having students search for information for the topics relating to the coming lessons. Students have to understand the information in textbooks or on the Internet and prepare to interpret before classmates, thereby they will not be so passive when they are in classes. Instead of listening to teachers only, students can show their teachers and their friends what they know about these topic.

Multiple people think that homework causes unnecessary stress levels, steals sleep and wastes time of students. I do not see it a reasonable excuse. For students, studying is more important than recreation, and doing homework and self-studying at home is vital. However, I think teachers should control the amount of homework they give students, so that students will not be overloaded and put under too much pressure. Besides, students themselves also have to manage their time suitably for studying and entertaining.

In conclusion, homework is not only necessary but also helpful for students. Nevertheless, enough is as good as a feast; therefore, the amount of homework should be limited and reasonable, so that students can spend leisure time for their social activities as well.

SHOULD HIV MOTHERS GIVE BIRTH TO THEIR CHILDREN?

In 2013, a statistic conducted by World Health Organization (WHO) states that 3.2 million children are living with HIV/AIDS all over the world. These children are infected with HIV from his or her mother. Therefore, many people argue that if HIV mothers still continue giving birth to their children. In my opinion, they should not because of 2 following reasons.

Health problems which HIV children have to face are the first reason why HIV mothers should not breed their children. As far as we all know, HIV gradually destroys human immune system, so patients easily die of common diseases such as flu or cold if their HIV stages turn into AIDS. Be a HIV child, s/he has to live with injections more frequently and more severely than normal children because child’s immunity which is now damaged hardly by HIV can work well as usual. Moreover, children also suffer the same opportunistic injections as adults do. In addition, the ending of almost all HIV children is death. According to WHO, 190 000 HIV children died in 2013, out of 1.5 million overall. Is it fair that HIV children live with much physical pain and then they die when they are still young; meanwhile, their uninfected friends live happily without pain?

Beside health problems, the HIV children can probably live under social pressure. Although people’s knowledge about HIV/AIDS transmission, they still prejudice the HIV children. Some parents consider the HIV children as “contaminant” and keep their kids away from them. Furthermore, children depend on caregiver or relatives, so the likelihood that children can access to proper treatment is quite low because their relatives are afraid of social pressure. This happens very frequently in low and middle income countries.

Opponents’ opinions indicate that to HIV women, their children are their only happiness so it is comprehensible that they can still give birth to their kids. As stated above, HIV children suffer from not only health problems but also psychological ones by virtue of pressure from society. If their kids can not live with much both physical and psychological pain, may they still feel happy? Perhaps, they feel less lonely when they have their kids by their side at the beginning but after they die of HIV/AIDS, how do their kids live for the rest of their lives by their own? Their lives are likely to be rough and not happy at all.

In conclusion, HIV women should take breeding into a serious consideration because of what their lovely kids have to deal with after they are born. In the near future, scientists can find the cure for HIV/AIDS to help patients live healthily without HIV/AIDS, especially children.

Topic: Should HIV/AIDS mother give birth to a child?

Human immunodeficiency virus infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(HIV/AIDS) is adiseaseof the human immune systemcaused by infection withhuman immunodeficiency virus(HIV). In the past century, HIV/AIDS is considered the sorest threat in human community with about more than 35 million people living with HIV/AIDS now and most of HIV infection cases were the result of sexual intercourse and from HIV mothers to their children. As far as I am concerned, I think HIV/AIDS mother should not give birth to a child.

It is a fortunate fact that thanks to the development in medical treatment, HIV parents can dream of having a healthy baby now with help and instruction from doctors as there are now some ways to prevent HIV virus from transferring from mothers to children when they get pregnant and give birth to them such as using ARV regularly. However I still support my point of view that HIV mother should not give birth to a child because of 2 reasons.

First and foremost, HIV/AIDS mother should avoid getting pregnant in the first place due to the high chances of transform HIV virus to her expecting child and her partner as well. According to World Health Organization (WHO), there are about 2.3 million individuals worldwide are newly infected with HIV every year and at least 36 out of 100 children whose mothers were infected with HIV have this virus in many parts of their bodies. Chances are that those children can live up to 10 years or more but they should be always under observation of doctors and have one kind of medicine or another to power up their immune system which is not cheap at all. If not, maybe they will not die of HIV virus but many can be attacked and killed easily by many other kinds of viruses. Therefore, a child with HIV virus from his or her mother is not only a burden on that family’s but also society’s economic and mental status.

Besides, HIV mother should not give birth to a child because it is high chance that this child will have to live a lonely and sorrowful life after his mother died. That medical treatment can help lengthen lives of HIV children does not mean that can help them live happily in a family with their mom and dad. HIV parents usually cannot live long with their child and after they died, those children will neither become orphans nor live in difficulty with grandparents and relatives which means having hardly any access to medical healthcare. Furthermore, as there are not many people who have proper knowledge about HIV/AIDS, HIV children will have to live in society’s discrimination and prejudice, then, maybe have little chance to get on in life.

In conclusion, I think that HIV woman should avoid getting pregnant and giving birth to a child in order to prevent infecting HIV virus to her lover and her expecting child in particular because of 2 reasons above. Moreover, I myself hope that the public become more open-minded and forgiving for those HIV people as well as their children because they also need encouraging to overcome their problems and mistakes.

SHOULD HIV MOTHERS GIVE BIRTHS TO THEIR CHILDREN?

According to the latest survey conducted by sociology researchers, the number of HIV people is reaching its peak in recent decade. The stupefied fact is that one fourth of these people are the children who inherit HIV virus from their mothers at birth. Some people strongly recommended that the HIV mothers should procure abortion. Others, however, assumed that getting rid of a fetus is such an immoral crime regardless he/she is a HIV baby. There are a number of arguments as well as significant concerns can be attributed to this notion as now will be discussed.

One of the main points is that abortion is the only way to give HIV babies cessation from the pain, diseases, discrimination or even vitriol from people around them. When infecting HIV virus, the weak immunity systems of babies are overridden and incapable of protecting their bodies from other diseases. After coming into the earth, they must bear multitude of pain brought about by illness. That gauntness will come along with these children to the end of their lives. Furthermore, they are probably oppressed by the harsh words from some rugged people. Before they can aware all their biter suffering, let’s end up their affliction by ending up their lives. No matter how hard we try to cure them, they still die. An early death likely brings about liberation to them.

On the other hand, government as well as HIV children’s family will lessen burden in term of finance and aid. Treating process costs HIV patients a big fortune, whereas overwhelming majority is unable to afford the medical service. Where can they find medical aid? That is a big question. Government and non-government organization are exerting themselves to weed out “century’s disease”-HIV and find drugs to cure HIV patients. However, they seem to try in vein as up to now, there is no medicine can actually makes HIV patients overcome their illness. If these HIV babies are born, there will be more burdens putting on government and families. More HIV babies means more budget paid for them. Government will have less money to invest in other affairs.

In contrast, someone presumes that getting rid of HIV fetuses is such an immoral crime. These fetuses are also human beings, hence, they have right to survive and desire for happiness and love from other people. They are unreservedly right. These babies are innocent. Socialistically, fault belongs to their parents who entail responsibilities. However, as mentioned above, we do not mean to kill these HIV fetuses. We don’t want to see the biter pain persecute them day after day. The doctors themselves are tormented when doing these abortion cases. We have no choice!

All in all, killing a human is not always considered as a crime but a rescue for himself and other people. Sometimes, we have to make choices that we do not want. We out and out cannot ward off it because that is life.

Should HIV/AIDS mothers give birth to their children?

There are an estimated 250000 to 300000 HIV/AIDS women giving birth annually. This figure raises a big question that “ought HIV-positive mothers to become pregnant?” The issue has been debated for many years. In my opinion, women with HIV/AIDS are still able to giving birth for some reasons.

Many people might believe that all babies born by HIV-positive women will be infected, or those HIV-positive mothers are too sick to have healthy pregnancies and give birth to HIV-free children. However, these concepts are completely wrong.

Primarily, accepting births of HIV/AIDS women is to ensure civil rights. Giving birth is every woman’s fundamental rights, and HIV women have no differences. Human Right Conventions say that every woman has rights to decide for herself, without coercion, whether having children or not. Therefore, pregnancies of HIV-positive women are recognized and defended by the government and the laws. The laws do not ban marriages of HIV/AIDS people, so prohibiting them from giving birth is unreasonable.

Besides, today, thanks to advances in HIV medication and more clinics that are specifically dedicated to HIV treatment, most children are not infected by their mothers. Mother-to-child transmission has been almost completely eliminated as a result of effective voluntary testing, appropriate medical treatment and safe use of breast-milk substitutes. According to the March of Dimes, women with HIV/AIDS who take antiretroviral medication during pregnancy as recommended can reduce the risk of transmitting HIV to their babies to less than 1%, down from about 25% in the early 1990s.In addition, in 2010, in United States, a study showed that there was no case of vertical transmission of HIV when guidelines to prevent this were properly followed. The facts show that there is no reason for HIV-positive women to be not pregnant.

In brief, HIV/AIDS women should give birth as it sacrifices a dream of being mom and there is higher and higher rate of healthy children who are born by HIV-positive mothers. Society should respect HIV mothers’ decision to become pregnant and have babies and assist them in having the healthiest and happiest pregnancies.

Topic: Should HIV/AIDS mothers give birth to their children?

In modern society, there are many problems that people have to deal with. One of them is the spread of sexual transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Many young girls or even women take part in some sexual behavior without any safety methods. Therefore, most of them are carrying not only the STDs but also the future generations. Nowadays, there is one argumentative question: Should HIV/AIDS mothers give birth to their children? In my opinion, HIV/AIDS mothers should not give birth to their children because of two reasons.

Firstly, science research stated that children of HIV/AIDS mothers are more likely to be infected with the same diseases. According to WHO, there are nine cases out of one hundred infected during pregnancy, seventeen cases during the stage of labour and ten cases during the lactation. Even if the children were born, he or she would be very weak and had a very short life-span.

Secondly, children of HIV mothers will likely be discriminated. Although people nowadays have common knowledge about the STDs but most of them are still scared and avoid contacting with the infected children at schools. As a result, HIV children isolate themselves from others and society and have many negative thinking. They cannot live a normal life like everyone else and start acting out of control. Moreover, some of their actions may promote the schools, families or society by skipping classes or take part in a fight. Not to mention the possibility that they can commit serious crimes.

Many people said that despite of the diseases, the infected mother has the right to bear their children. They believed that the rate of HIV/AIDS transmit from mother to the baby is still quite low, the kid will grow up and live a healthy life. In fact, the possibility of having an infected children is high if there is no intervention methods. Even though the kid is born healthily, he or she will be alienated because people know about the kid is the children of HIV/AIDS mothers.

In short, HIV/ADIS mothers should not give birth to their children for some reasons. The children is easily infected by the diseases from the mothers as well as discriminated by others. They cannot have a normal life and they always suffer from both physically and mentally pressure from many sides in society. Therefore, it is the best that infected children should not be born.
