Definition of modern technology
What defines modern from past?
Use of Nanotechnology as an example
Stand-despite increasing complexity and range of problems, none of the problems can provide a well based argument against the need for the extraction of solutions from modern technology
Second paragraph-Einstein's research as an example
Possible abuse of technology instead of glorifying it.
However, use of North Korea as counter argument.
Third paragraph-concepts do change
Clash with ethical issues
Counter argument-Values do not hold, example-Communist China, overwhelmed by the convenience provided by computer.
Moreover, the abuses of technologies are done by Man.Control can be taken.
Replacement of man with new technology-Lead to stagnancy in development
Opposing view-NASA accident-call for improvement actually
Conclusion and restating all points

Discuss the qualities you would look for in an ideal parent.
Not all parents are ideal and not many possess them.The kind of ideal parents that i hope to see would respect their children's thoughts, be loving towards each other and should not interfere with their children's world of imaginations.
The parents besides playing a disciplinary role should also allow their children to speak up and respect their thoughts, not just say right or wrong but evaluate their ideas.This will reassure them to stand up for noble and acceptable acts and warn them of dangerous and undesirable consequences of stupidty and unkindness.This eventually become profound values of their own and develop strong characters in them.George Washington as a child was able to admit chopping an apple tree, his father not only did not punish him but complimented him for the courage to own up.This invaluable integrity and and courage were the characteristics that made the first American president.
Moreover,the children that can speak up their minds at home also will love their parents in return.This will bound the family better as a whole.
Parents should be loving so that they can maintain a harmonious relationship and provide warmth for their children which mould humanity in them.Contrary to an ever quarreling couple who frighten their children and demonstrate violence, ruining their little minds.What else could have grown callous, selfish and cruel children?Psychologists agree that if an infant is always handled with care, fed when hungry,comforted when miserable,he begins to get a fundamental trust in other and unshakable liking for human beings.Parents who are impatient, easily angered or too busy to spend time with children are building character with sand.
Lastly,parents must leave the world to their children's own imaginations.Parents must not direct their infants on how to think,what to think and of course whether or not to think.Last year,a mother sued a kindergarden teacher who was later verdicted one year in jail for informing the children that the stroke represents one.For a child to know that a stroke is one means that they will never know that that it can be a candle,a string or anything within their imagination.All these which can open up to new discoveries and concepts.
Einstein once explained. "The ordinary adult never bothers his head about the problems of space and time. These are things he has thought of as a child. But I developed so slowly that I began to wonder about space and time only when I was already grown up. Consequently, I probed more deeply into the problem than an ordinary child would have."
