The summary of "The Rocking-Horse Winner" is the following:
Hester is dissatisfied with her life because she has no luck and her husband does not make as much money as she would like. Her son Paul begins to place bets on horse races together with his uncle and the gardener, and the horses he chooses actually win. He and his uncle decide to give his mother a gift of five thousand pounds, but he becomes ill. The day of the Derby he wins eighty thousand pounds, and he confesses his mother that he can guess the name of the winner horse by riding his rocking horse at home and reaching a psychic state of mind. Finally, he dies that night, and Hester feels that he is doing better now that he is dead than riding a rocking-horse in order to make money.
Answer:
I do not agree with reducing the age allowed to vote.
Explanation:
There is a strong debate about the correct age that a person should be allowed to vote. On the one hand, many believe that teenagers, under 18, should be allowed to vote, as they are already part of society and may already have responsibilities. On the other hand, many people affirm that the reduction of age is not correct, since adolescents are easily manipulated and act, often, with a lack of rationality, which would harm the result of the elections.
Voting is an act that requires a lot of responsibility, critical thinking, rationality and self-awareness. This means that for a citizen to be allowed to vote, he must have his thinking fully constructed, being able to understand what socioeconomic problems the community he is inserted in, not allowing himself to be manipulated and understanding the responsibility of voting. Adolescents do not reach these characteristics, since they are in a phase of life, in which they have other priorities, act on impulse and influence and do not have the ability to reason politically.
It would be suffered. Suffered is not a positive word, because if someone is suffering, they are having a hard time.
