Answer:

If we agree to forgive someone too quickly and uncritically in an effort to repair a relationship, without discussing and acknowledging the injury, then we are not necessarily doing it for the right reasons, and the issue will probably still fester.

And too often, the concept of forgiveness has been jumbled up with other ideas. For instance, we can excuse someone's conduct by deciding that the person who did us wrong simply couldn't help him- or herself. That is not forgiveness

Forgiveness also isn't the same as mercy. Showing mercy means reducing or eliminating the punishment completely, while being willing to forgive doesn't necessarily negate retribution. For example, there are programs where victims meet and forgive the criminals who injured them -- but still believe they should be punished. Murphy puts it this way: "Forgiveness is a change of heart toward someone -- overcoming the feelings of anger and resentment that typically come from being wronged by another."

Senior believes one of the greatest shifts over time has been the role of child. Discuss what this means and how it has impacted
Marina CMI [18]
Here's how I see it. For a long time throughout many generations, women and kids didn't have rights. It was always the man of the house who brought home the bacon and controlled the house. Slowly but surely women started to get rights (like voting, being able to do more jobs and generally more things, and even though there is still a wage gap they got payed more over time), but kids didn't start having a voice until, let's say, until 3 generations ago. With advances in technology, kids started to have more of a voice and more of a role in general. A long time ago kids were factory workers as well, which is kinda out of place to put here but I just remembered so the more you know I guess. Anyways, kids started getting more educated, getting more legal rights, and with technology, much more of a voice. Kids are on social media now, child actors (like Millie Bobby Brown) are fighting for women's rights and are helping to fund charities. Kids can create youtube channels, they can create Instagram accounts, they can do anything with technological advancements today. Kids can do basically anything adults can. My mom, who is a baby boomer, talked about the fact that when she was a kid, kids were to be seen, not to be heard. Kids weren't really acknowledged by adults and were often disregarded as idiots until they became legal adults, but now a 13 year-old could have an intellectual conversation about politics with a 50 year old. So, to answer your question, yes, the role of a child has been one of the greatest shifts over time. The way it effects families can be for the better or for worse. I think it's mostly for the better. Kids can speak out now, they can learn more and do more. They have the ability to become an adults as a child, if that makes any sense. Kids are evolving now and will be for forever. I think that because kids have a voice now more than ever, it's a good thing. Kids should be smart and should be heard, and the fact that some kids are able to invent things or challenge adults to trying new things or having intellectual conversations is amazing!!! I hope this helped, sorry that this question is 2 weeks old, brainy just suggested it to me. Good luck with school!

5 compound sentences using coordinating conjunctions or conjunctive adverbs to join two complete sentences. For the compound sen
Olin [163]

Answer: 1. <u>Man</u> has <em><u>created</u></em> many inventions; yet, teleportation has not been possible.

2. <u>Rich people</u> <u><em>waste</em></u> a lot of money; meanwhile, poor people barely have food for the day.

3. <u>I</u> haven't <em><u>done</u></em> my laundry, nor washed the dishes.

4. Sometimes, <u>singers</u> <em><u>release</u></em> bad music since they have pressure from the record.

5. <u>My boyfriend</u> <em><u>lost</u></em> his wallet, so I had to pay for the food.

Explanation:

Independent clauses are complete clauses that can stand on their own, but when they are next to coordinating conjunctions or conjunctive adverbs, they form a compound sentence. These five examples have two independent clauses. For instance: "Rich people waste a lot of money" and "poor people barely have food for the day" make sense on their own; however, the conjunctive adverb "meanwhile" connects and contrasts them.
