Hello, folks. As you can tell, this is my first time getting into the blogging business. I have to do this for my Web Graphic Design class. In this one, I'm doing some research on a social issue, which deals with family values of today compared to those in the mid-1900s (because the apostrophe is unnecessary). These values may include abstinence education, traditional marriage, etc. You know where I'm going with this, right?

So if you have any thoughts about these ideas, feel free to share them.

Mr. Sig

Proposal:
Today, American family values are practically different compared to those during the mid-1900s. Unlike families in the 20th century, families in the 21st century consist of parents who always work and seldom spend time with their children. Today's children are usually left alone after school, spend time watching TV, and surf the Internet every day. Back in the earlier days, many families had a lot of quality time together, discussing the problems that were occurring and the days the family members had. They also never dealt with situations some of today's families are facing, such as selecting unhealthy food. What I'm about to discuss is the comparision between family values of today and those of yesteryear and come up with a solution to remedy the families' problems that earlier families never had before.
