What impact on the family (or the workplace) have changes in gender roles had?

 Familes now have both father and mother working. The mother used to be a house mom to take care of the kids and the house while the father was out making the money. Now fathers can be the stay at home father who takes care of the children and house while the mother goes out and makes the money. More and more women are finding jobs away from home. Women are being able to be in higher command even over some men. Starting to get to equality but at the same time we will probably never reach it.

19.Should imports of foreign cars or other foreign products be limited or restricted by law?

No, they should not be limited or restricted by law. We have tons of kid toys that are not made in the united states. They are usually from china. Even some of the clothes people where now are not even from the united states. Cars are another thing we import from other countries. Also some countries have resources the united states don't have much or any of. If we do end up limiting or restrict imports would be a dumb decision. The U.S would most likely end up suffering in the end.

18.Should public servants (like school teachers, hospital workers, trash collectors) have the right to strike?

 I belive they should be able to strike. I don't see why they could not strick. All kinds of people do it all over the world. Students even do it at college schools. It is there job and if the company they are working for is being unfair, uneqal, or discrimination they have a right to fight back.

Should adoption records be open rather than sealed?

     This one it depends really on what way you look at it. If i was the kid being adopted and I had a couple of rough familys who adopted me I wouldn't like the new adoption parents to know about them. I would just want to know me as a child.
     If it was from the parent side it would be different. I would like to know about the kids records of being a trouble maker or not. Kids would just act nice to get adopted then once adopted turn mean.
     This one depends on what side you look at the adoption. The kid side against the parent side of adoption. I think this is what the question is asking.

Should newspaper reporters be required to reveal their sources?

I believe they should tell the source of thier information. Other wise they will just make a bunch of stuff up to get popular and get the money from newspaper reporters. It someone did a really horrible story it could make a company or a person look extremly bad and could also give the news paper companies a bad reputation. They if they did the people could get their own opinion on the story by the source.

Should sex and violence on television or in the movies be restricted?


No they should not be restricted. That is why television and movies have these awesome but yet pain in the butt things call ratings. This makes it so younger kinds can't go see a horrible, sexual, or scary movie without parent or guardian there with them at that time. I remember when my friends and I tried to go see awesome movies but it was rated R so we couldn't get in. Then you have the kids that get tickets for a different movie and go movie hopping. If they restrict sex and violence they should take of movie ratings as well. Seems like it will be a pain for everyone in the end.

Should bartenders be held responsible for the behavior of their patrons?

          My opinion is that they should not be held responsible for a person's behavior. The person acting in a bad or good behavior is responsible for themselves. They are grown ups why should someone else be responsible for them. People should know their alcohol limits they can take, so they don't cause a ruckus or destroy anything. The only two things a bartender should be responsible is to make people their delicious drinks and to check everyone's I.D. They need to check I.D.’s so that there are no minor drinking any alcohol in their establishment because that could ruin the business. Also make the drinks, if no drinks people don't come so no sales to keep up the business.
