An article in the Teen Tribune tells how a 3-year-old black bear was captured at an elementary school in Bakersfield. The bear was first seen wandering around on school property and it not only interrupted the last day of school but, also a graduation ceremony that was being held at a middle school close by.

And even though the bear kept its distance and nobody was in harm’s way, the authorities were called. It didn’t take long for the officers to get there, and when they did they cornered the bear, captured it and released it into the wild. The bear may have just been looking for something

Ehrenreich introduces his ideas by explaining that “in the eighties, US companies began outsourcing the manufacturing of everything from garments to steel…”, but by the nineties, “back office and call center jobs migrated to India” (609).

In the editorial by Ron Judd titled “Why returning grizzlies to the North Cascades is the right thing to do” found on the Seattle Times’ website, Mr. Rudd states his case for the reintroduction of Grizzly bears into the North Cascade Mountains of Washington State. He makes the argument that fatal interactions between hikers and bears are not a valid argument against reintroduction because the rarity of these encounters and the rarity of aggressive bears. He also cites some of his personal experiences encountering these animals and both his own and their reaction. Mr. Rudd uses this information to paint a picture that the bears are not as dangerous as commonly believed, using as an example the presence of grizzly bears in Yellowstone National Park which sees many more visitors than the North Cascades. Another point that Rudd discusses is his belief that bears are an important part of the wilderness experience, he shares his feelings after one of those encounters: “With senses heightened off the charts, it was as if I had stopped observing the natural world, and for the first time, stepped all the way into it.

When a child commits a crime we look over that, and stop seeing them as children. We shouldn’t sentence children to a life in prison when their brains are not only underdeveloped, but also missing a good portion of gray matter.

The best route to follow can be the one that is not in the map. Being a teenager is not easy. Being a mom is not easy. On the one hand, being a teenager, you have to face a lot of changes in your life, for example, start defining who you are or start thinking about your future. On the other hand, becoming a mom could be compared to experiencing a big earthquake in your life (but hopefully with not-so-bad consequences); just as the actress Olivia Wilde said “Motherhood is a heart-exploding, blissful hysteria”.
