It is acceptable to experiment on animals. Although animal
experimentation is cruel it benefits animals in the long run. One example

those chickens became immune to later infections. Also millions of pets
and farm animals would have died from such diseases as anthrax, distemper,
canine parni virus, feline leukemia, rabies, hepatitis and other diseases
if it weren't for animal research. In addition to that the Biomedical

there are over 80 medications that were developed through animal research
for humans but are now used on pets, farm animals, and wildlife.

Three decades later, in an address at the University of California in San Diego, Presiden...
The discipline of a child must always come from the parents, as society says. Power corrupts, however, and absolute power over another person can corrupt absolutely. Taking advantage of the thinness of the line between discipline and abuse, a parent often doesn?t have to answer to anyone if and when they cross that line. In Mary...
