The story "The Blanket" by Floyd Dell is a very sensitive story that deals with family relationships. As in real life, there are families that have an old grandparent or step mother, etc. In this story we see how Petey's father tries to deal with some different problems. Because Petey's father is planning to get married, he wants to send his father to an old-age home. To make it easier for Petey, Granddad unselfishly pretends that it was his idea. However, Petey, who loves his granddad very much, shows his father that the way you treat loved ones, is how you will be treated in the future.

There have been many interesting inventions in the past 100 years. Each person will give a different answer to the question, "What is the greatest technological discovery"?
In my opinion the greatest invention is the cell phone. There are many reasons for this. First of all, the cell phone is a good way to communicate with people in an emergency. If your car is stuck or you need help in an emergency, the cell phone is a great way to get help. Secondly, parents can always know where their children are if they have a cell phone. If the child forgets to call their parents then the parents can always call the child and not worry about them. Of course the cell phone is a great invention for many other reasons that everyone knows such as talking to friends.
When I asked my grandmother what the greatest invention was, she answered the washing machine. She said that in the past it was very hard to wash clothes by hand. In addition, the washing machine saves time and also washes the clothes better than she did by hand.
The difference between my opinion and the opinion of my grandmother is very clear. She looks at things from the point of view of her family and I look at things from my point of view. This shows how age and generation influence our ideas about new inventions and modern technology.

I would like to give my opinion of children's rights in Israel. This usually depends on which part of Israel you are talking about. Some children have more rights than others.
Today there are many different types of people and children living in Israel. For example, there are rich people who usually have no problem giving their children most of the rights they need. They have protection, live in good neighborhoods with their families, go to good schools, and feel safe most of the time. There are other families that are not very rich that live in buildings that are not very safe. Children who live in these neighborhoods go to schools that are not as safe or as good. In adddition, children from these neighborhoods are not as protected from crime or other dangers as children from rich neighborhoods.
To summarize, the children of Israel have their basic human rights most of the time even though there could be some improvements. Although ther are some problems with security in Israel, in general Israel takes care of its children very well.
