To spank or not to spank?



Should we set limits to our children?

To set limits for their children is the basic element to implement discipline.
It allows the child knows what is expected of him/her or how far he/she can go with their behavior.
It allows the child to know how and when to do something, and it gives you the opportunity to recognize between the right or wrong.
Well,the parents teach how the world works and they understand that they want and live together with others.
Is very important that the both parents are agree on the rules to instill.
The limits should be base on the child´s age.
The parents should show an attitude of acceptance,affection,respect for the child.
The limits should be describe clearly and accurately.

This does not use corporal punishment and give your children the opportunity to grow emotionally.

Money problems, impossibility for to study, family disintegration, friends falses, autority problems, access to drugs and guns, problematic neigborhoods.
All are problems what suffer our children and teenagers in this time. This situation provoke they act in violent and agressive form toward society.
Suddenly, faced with a situation where they are alone, in prison, with relatives or friends dead; with a past full of pain and with your full awareness of crimes.
But inside you: you want an another life; being someone and that someone believes in you and support you.
Our lifes can be difficult, but you always have people around you to help you be better, to love and forgive.

Facing the Giants



“With God nothing is imposible”

I think that everything around us is the love of God present.
Our faith and hope in him, we can go to miracles in our lives.
I know, because he shows me every day, with my health, my home, my family, for every gift that gives me. For I can see, I can feel, I can love.
The life of my young sister is a real example of that with God nothing is imposible, because her health has been compromised and has been close to death, but our faith in God and love for her, along with her effort she has been recovered.
Do loosers exist?

No, they do not exist.
We only have call attention before difficult situations. Difficult situations teach us to grow.
Of the bad things and the pain we can learn to improve our future.

Advice:

 Act with faith and love, God is leading you something better.
 Enjoy the people around you, gives a hug to your mother, sisters/brothers, give your husband/wife a kiss.
 Learn to wait, everything has a lesson at the right time.
 The most important, to has a God in your mind and heart; he will be present in everything you do.

Endurance Test



The X-knights, extreme game

This sport is the union of freestyle with supercross.
For me is an exciting sport, the athletes have a lot of physical strength and ability to deal with speed and do tricks in the air.
Besides, they are passionate people by adrenaline and entertainment, however this is a dangerous game, because may be damage.
I think it is very important the experience and motivation of athletes to make the best jump and art display. Also the dedication to learn and practice each maneuver and have the smarts to jump downwind.
The pilots of supercross freestyle are the many countries:Spain, Japan, Australia, France, Colombia, Norway.
The track used for competition will have two main ramps, a jump double, one triple and two ramps to block cycles.
It is a real show.

Crime in Costa Rica



I am worried about the increase incrime in our country.
I think that crime is related to poverty, high costs of life (education, medical treatment, food) and the most important one: the families don´t spend enough time together.
Also there exists people corrup; they look for poor people to do bad things and to obtain money easy.
Besides to the luxurios lifestyle creates criminal minds and makes the people harm the physical, phycological and moral integrity of the other people.
Addition the technology is funny for some, but it can to change in crime, for example: the hackers, they surfers your e-mails, bank accounts and have all your personal information at their disposal.
I think it is very important to be careful with our personal information, do not know who may be watching me.

International destination




I like the Netherlands for their nature areas, for example:
Waddenzee: which is dominated by the tide. At low tide the wadden fall dry. The flat area is a rich source of food and is ideal for birds to forage for fish and shell fish. The Waddenzee is home to more and more colonies of seals. At low tide, you can take a guided walk across the flats.
Oostvaardersplassen: When the plans for South Flevoland were made; the planners were not only thinking of people. A hectare piece of marshland on the edge of the polder was reserved as a nature area. Hundreds of species of birds, including geese, corcomants and spoonbills have made the Oostvaardersplassen their home. Highland cattle, wild horses and deer were brought in to keep the undergrowth down.
Veluwe: with its Woodland heath and sand dunes it is one of the oldest protected nature areas in the Netherlands. It is home to deer and wild boar. The Dutch believe it is so important to protect these wild animals that they have put ecoducts over, under and next to main roads so that animals can cross safely.
The most important for me is their culture and behavior. Most people are active in their leisure time. They are members of sports clubs, music groups or choirs. Many attend lessons or courses to learn a foreign language, cooking or computer skills.
The Dutch spend much of their leisure time doing odd jobs in and around the home. At weekends, they often visit friends or relatives. In the evening, they watch a lot of television. In most places, they can receive dozens of domestic and foreign TV channels on cable. Many people go on holiday abroad at least once a year. On their days off, many Dutch people go to weekend’s cottages or caravans on a campsite or they take in their sailboat or motor boat to the water.
Besides, their traditional customs are very interesting. Each area of the Netherlands had its own costume, so there are actually many traditional Dutch costumes. The most well known part of the traditional Dutch costume is the wooden clogs. The shape of the clogs different according to what area of the Netherlands they came from.
I like two things especially: the Dutchman (tulip) and the wind mill.

Video Games



The video games are interesting. They can generate skills in children, for example: some are educational, teaching us something and improving our hand-eye coordination.
There are also games that stimulate your brain and make you think; like exploring games explore.The players face different challenges such as solving puzles that are difficult to do or solve.
We have games that keep our body active; we can move around when playing, and it makes us laugh and relaxes mind and body.
You can play video games with other people or alone, so you can become a sociable person.
Some games can turn us into violent persons, for example; players use weapons, and often fight against each others.
It is possible to get addicted and spend too much time playing video games.
It is necessary to check out the games your children play and to limit the time.
In our time the tecnhology is very important for our life; but is more important to spend time with the family.

Letter of president

Presidential House
Costa Rica
Zapote, San José
Dear Ms. President:
I am Lezahairam, I am a nurse and I am currently working in IAFA in this time.
I am writting you, because I am worried about the increase in crime in our country.
I think that crime is related to poverty, high costs of life (education, medical treatment, food) and the most important the families do not spend enough time together.
The lack of the jobs, and the low salaries make the people search for other forms to obtain money.
Also there, exist corrupter people; they look for poor people for to do bad things and to obtain easy Money. For example; drug traffickers use children to sell drugs.
Some suggestions:
 To have jobs opportunities for people with limited education
 To improve security in schools, high schools, universities and neighborhoods
 To improve wages for the policemen (it is a dangerous job, and poorly paid)
 To work together with the church on family campaigns (social work with needy people)
I hope that under your administration there are projects to reduce crime.
Thanks for your attention and time,
Sincerely,

My community

I live in Calle Blancos. This place is a small city.
It is situated in Goicoechea, San José.
My husband and I moved here nine month ago. We live in our house.
I like this location, because in front of my house is the sports square; in the weekend and on some evenings people play soccer.
Our bus stop is across the street.
The supermarket “Palí” is on the way to our house.
The minimarket is around the corner.
Next door is the ironworks “San José”.
There´s a gym nearby, just one block away.

Almost everything I need is just within walking distance; for example: the church, the bank and the police office.
The distance between my house towards work is not that much, around fifteen minutes in car.
In general it is a peaceful neighboorhood; the most important is that my young sister is my neighbor and our mother´s house is near to us.

My perfect job


Nursing is a perfect job.
You can help people with only love.
You can feelthe people´s pain and based on this you can give advice to recover their health.
Everyday you see people fighting against their sickness and you can be a God instrument to alleviate their pain.
Also I could work in education,prevention and investigation, and with this contribute to the social well-being.
However, it is a very dangerous job: physically, emotionally and mental. Extended hours are normal for each schedule.
The most important in this job is up date information(new diseases, new procedures, new protocoles and new treatments).
I like this work, I am a nurse.
