My opinion on domestic violence

In my personal opinion, domestic violence is a terrible social problem in Uruguay and in the world, because  it ends the life of many people and makes bad psychological state at children and adolescents. Between 2004 and 2010, 213 women and 57 children were killed in domestic violence cases in Uruguay. Studies show that in our country 80 percent of adults exercise manifests domestic violence against children and adolescents. Who commits violence tries subdue and control the people who are in a situation of inequality and power imbalance. In families where exists domestic violence operates a system of domination that is exercised by the violent person. Domestic violence is not a problem motivated by passion, not by family breakdown, or by poverty, alcohol, drugs or lack of education. Domestic violence is grave expression of power inequalities between men and women and between adults and children and adolescents.

There are four types of domestic violence:

• Physical abuse is what most people think of when they think of domestic violence. Physical abuse includes hitting, punching, slapping, kicking, choking, shoving, being hit with objects or being held against one's will.
• Emotional abuse includes yelling, name-calling, repeated insults, isolation, threats or hurting pets. Emotional abuse also includes "crazy-making," a process that questions the victim's sense of what is real and what isn't.
• Sexual abuse includes, among other things, unwanted sexual touching, demanding sex and rape. Marital rape is also a type of sexual abuse. Marital rape is defined as any sexual activity by a married or cohabiting partner that is performed without the consent of the other partner.
• Stalking includes following someone when they leave the house, harassing phone calls, purposefully running into the victim in public places, and calling or stopping by the partner's workplace too often.

My opinion on Healthy Habits

In my opinion, healthy habits are very important because physical activity and healthy eating lowers levels of unhealthy triglycerides in your blood, supports a healthy blood pressure, and reduces your risk of type 2 diabetes .Exercise helps with age well, women are especially prone to a condition called osteoporosis (thinning of the bones) as they get older. Studies have found that exercises that involve weight-bearing, such as running or brisk walking, can help girls and boys to maintain strong bones. Exercise causes the body to produce endorphins, chemicals that make us feel peaceful and happy. Exercise can help some people sleep better. It can also help with mental health problems, such as mild depression and low self esteem.It increases the flow of oxygen to the brain, improving your learning ability, concentration, memory and alertness.

You should eat salads, take a walk often, avoid trans fats, do exercise, eat fruits often, try to have a balanced diet, drink eight glass of mineral water every day, but you should not drink sodas every day, eat fries, include a lot of sugar in your coffee, take in alcohol in excess and fast food. You should sleep about 7 hours a day because sleep is one of the most important functions of our body and we should not neglect it. It is during sleep when our body is recovering from the day's activity. For this reason, take the rest as a priority to stay healthy and energized.
