Answer: They emphasize Vivien's adamant decision.

Explanation:

The stage directions revealed that Vivien has made an adamant decision. In this case, we can deduce that Vivien was going to do everything possible in order to get him.

This can be seen when she said that even though she had never wanted anything badly enough before but that this time, she could cry her heart out for him with no pride left and that she was going to have him.

What/where does the constitution give the president the diplomatic power?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hamilton, although he had expressed substantially the same view in The Federalist regarding the power of reception, adopted a very different conception of it in defense of Washington’s proclamation. Writing under the pseudonym, “Pacificus,” he said: “The right of the executive to receive ambassadors and other public ministers, may serve to illustrate the relative duties of the executive and legislative departments. This right includes that of judging, in the case of a revolution of government in a foreign country, whether the new rulers are competent organs of the national will, and ought to be recognized, or not; which, where a treaty antecedently exists between the United States and such nation, involves the power of continuing or suspending its operation. For until the new government is acknowledged, the treaties between the nations, so far at least as regards public rights, are of course suspended. This power of determining virtually upon the operation of national treaties, as a consequence of the power to receive public ministers, is an important instance of the right of the executive, to decide upon the obligations of the country with regard to foreign nations. To apply it to the case of France, if there had been a treaty of alliance, offensive and defensive, between the United States and that country, the unqualified acknowledgment of the new government would have put the United States in a condition to become as an associate in the war with France, and would have laid the legislature under an obligation, if required, and there was otherwise no valid excuse, of exercising its power of declaring war. This serves as an example of the right of the executive, in certain cases, to determine the condition of the nation, though it may, in its consequences, affect the exercise of the power of the legislature to declare war. Nevertheless, the executive cannot thereby control the exercise of that power. The legislature is still free to perform its duties, according to its own sense of them; though the executive, in the exercise of its constitutional powers, may establish an antecedent state of things, which ought to weigh in the legislative decision. The division of the executive power in the Constitution, creates a concurrent authority in the cases to which it relates.

mestny [16]

The correct answer is Hamilton feared that those tasked with creating the new Constitution would oppose reforms that limited their power.

Because in the quote he mentions as one of obstacles the resistance of men, which would be already holding power in establishments and that might have their power threat to be diminished.

To what extent has the child's role evolved in today's family structure?
Gnesinka [82]

<em>Modernity has changed the role of the child in the family structure.</em>

In earlier days, a child was an investment for the family. Children were there to take care of their parents in their old age. Boys were supposed to fight and bring money home, girls were expected to help in the household and to marry well later in life. The family structure depended on them for survival and that's why families used to have many children, There was also a strong sense of honoring and obedience towards one's parents. They were seen an the absolute authority and disobedience was frown upon and even punished.

Nowadays, our culture has removed the most functional demands kids have to the family. The children are still seen as an investment but in a way that elevates the parents' prestige and not in the materialistic sense. Parents provide education for their kids so that the kids can get a good job, take care of themselves and live independently as adults. In many families, parents do not expect their children to look after them in old age. Children today have far more rights and fewer obligations as before, as their  upbringing is centered on providing for their needs first. Therefore, many children today feel entitled to play a leading role in the family, demanding  full attention of their parents. Disobedience is often not punished and misbehavior tolerated.

Some think that we should lower the voting age to 16. Do you think this is a wise choice? Should we keep the current age of 18,
ra1l [238]

Answer:

I think the voting age should stay as it is. At age 16 you're still figuring out who you are, and what you believe in. Many people also have worries that parents would try to manipulate their kids into voting for a specific party.
