Octomom vs China's one child policy

I think that parents should have the right to have as many children and they want/desire. If you are only allowed one child, what happens if you are sick and your child is away in university? What would you do? Who would help you? But yet i also think that you as a parent should know how many children you are capable of looking after and if you have enough money for their education, and funds. So overall i am trying to say; if you want to have children, you must first have the responsibilities and money to look after them.

Octuplets...

Octuplets, should the government do something about it?

No, i think the government shouldn't’t do anything about it; because you as a parent should have the right to decide the number of children you want to have and whether or not you have the responsibilities to look after them.
Questions like can I afford the delivery charges, food, maintenance, childcare and education must first be considered; only then you can determine the number of children you want to bring up in this world.
The burden of expenses still lie heavily on the parents. So if are wealthy, having octuplets is possible and you can provide them all with an education and fair childhood; but if you are poor, having octuplets will only bring misery and despair to you and your eight children.

China's one-child policy - agree or disagree

Today in class we discussed about the one-child policy in China and wondered if some people disagreed and agreed with the law made, well I disagreed because it is unfair for the government to tell other people (citizens) that they can’t have a certain amount of children. After Mau Zedong’s death, his successor Deng Xiaoping, gave very harsh instructions that there are too many people/children in China, so every family has to have not mare than one child; and if they did have more than one, they would be heavily punished. Well because of that law there was a new problem accruing everywhere called the “4-2-1” problem where the one child has to look after his two parents and four grandparents. Also, people in China prefer boys more than girls so they are willing to kill their baby girl for a boy; therefore Chinese officials estimate that by 2020 there will be about 30million men without wives. Although the Chinese think the one-child policy is good for their country, some still think they should have the freedom to have as many children as they desire than rather than just having one child. That is why I disagree with the one-child policy! Do you agree or disagree?

Another one of my understanding of "Sonnet 7"

I think Sonnet 7 means:

The sun is rising up high into the sky; is when the poem starts with;

Lo! In the orient when the gracious light
Lifts up his burning head, each under eye
Doth homage to his new-appearing sight

… is like the sun is climbing up into the sky and it’s at its highmost pitch.
People continue to admire and adore its beauty and its glowing majesty like a strong king high up on a throne is when the poem reads;

“Serving with looks his sacred majesty
And having climb’d the steep-up heavenly hill
Resembling strong youth in his middle age,
Yet mortal looks adore his beauty still
Attending on his golden pilgrimage”

But when it sets, it fades and will loose beauty and the sky looks dark and old. It is just like when an old man dies without a son he will be forgotten too with no son to carry on his name and generation

.. Is towards the last few lines of the poem;

But when from highmost pitch, with weary car
Like feeble age, he reeleth from the day
The eyes, ‘fore duteous, now converted are
From his low tract and look another way
So thou, thyself outgoing in thy noon

The last line;

Unlooked on diest unless thou get a son

…to me is like if the man doesn’t get a son then he will be looked down by others.

My understanding of "Sonnet 7"

I think Sonnet 7 means;
The sun has risen and stands up high in the sky, people continue to admire and adore its beauty and its glowing majesty like a young strong king high up on a throne. But when it sets, it fades and it will loose its beauty and the sky looks dark and old. It is just like when an old man dies without a son, he will be forgotten too with no son to carry on his name and generation.
