Self-defense is recognized by the common law as a defense against criminal charges on certain specific grounds.

<h3><u>Explanation: </u></h3>

If in a gruesome act of self-defense, there is a serious bodily injury or death of the person attempting to hurt or potentially kill the other person, the act of the former is considered valid and reasonable.

This is because the common law grants each and every individual the right to fight and the right to defend oneself in situations that may culminate in death or serious physical injury.

Maria is three years old and is just starting to learn that if she is in the grocery store and she doesn’t ask for a small candy
IRINA_888 [86]

Maria, who is three years old, has taught to wait small candy bar for a bigger prize rather than pursuing lesser ones. Maria is aware of the idea of "<u>delaying pleasure.</u>"

<h3>Define the term Delaying gratification?</h3>
  • Delay of gratification is the act of fighting the urge to accept an immediate benefit in the hopes of receiving a future reward that will be more valuable.
  • The key to self-regulation, or self-control, is the capacity to postpone gratification.

For the given condition-

  • Maria, who is three years old, is just beginning to understand that her mother would buy her a ice cream cone when shopping is over if she doesn't ask for just a smaller candy bar with in aisle.
  • She discovered that waiting for a bigger prize was more wise than pursuing lesser ones.
  • Maria has learnt the value of postponing pleasure since she is aware that if she refuses to accept the store's smaller incentives of sweets, she would eventually be able to have the ice cream she really wants.

Thus,  Maria is aware of the idea of "delaying pleasure."

PLEASE HELP ASAP

Alanna Pauline age 12, American

I woke up to the sound of a clock and climbed out of bed I get dressed grab my books and walk downstairs dad is there in the kitchen making some breakfast, I could see Cassidy outside doing some quick hustle with laundry I sat down and ate breakfast I had to rush out the door as soon as I was finished and wait for my siblings to walk to school it wasn't that fare however it was through a big forest meaning we had to walk I wasn't surprised though we used to have to do it back in New Jersey. We moved due to some money issues. I guess Papa just wanted to move so we could have a better life than what we did and it already feels great saying goodbye to my friend Sydney was tough. I wish she was here so I could walk to school but I guess walking with my sister means I'm safe. I see Cassidy and my sister walk out the door waving goodbye to papa. She held my hand and we would walk to school together though I'm perfectly fine walking by myself but sadly dad just thinks it's safer considering we have to walk through a forest though I understand. Papa works at a bank in this town so usually after school all of my siblings would have to walk over there and stand outside being patient waiting for him to leave for safety. When we got here my papa ought a fairly nice house that has a huge farm of land. We arrived at the Schoolhouse and were learning about the "Geography" of the world which to me is pretty boring. I do have to say I am fairly good in class. James my big brother had to help out with teaching today I heard it's pretty fun to do when your older and wiser so that's why I'm trying to do good in class I would love to be a teacher one day and who knows maybe teach little children about my life before coming to Oregon which will certainly be a tale for sure.
