The difference between love and friendship is the level of commitment, sacrifice and preservation of personal space allowed. The difference between love and friendship is that love transcends all material space while friendship,
 Family involved: All of us take part in a family relation, this permits us to develop and learn new skill, values and everything used by us.
 Risk: From their earliest years, children watch television shows and movies that insist that "sex appeal" is a personal quality that people need to develop to the fullest.  Teenagers are at risk but from this sort of mass-market encouragement.
 Sexual content is regularly marketed to younger children, pre-teens, and teens and this affects young people's sexual activity and beliefs about sex.  According to the fact sheet, Marketing Sex to Children, from the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, children are bombarded with sexual content and messages.
People often believe that the only risks from teens having sex are pregnancy or getting an STD. Not true. Teens who have sex are at risk for emotional problems too.
It has been clear for quite some time that teen sex and emotional problems such as depression are related. What has not been clear is if teen sex causes depression, or depression causes teens to have sex. Recent research suggests that both may be true. Teens, especially girls, who have sexual intercourse may be at greater risk for depression. And depression in teens is now known to lead to risky sexual behaviors.
 Pregnancy can be a sex’s consequence when the couple does not use a method of birth control and it could be a serious problem in their life, it known as a fetus or embryo, inside the womb of a female.
Addiction is a condition in which the body must have a drug to avoid physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms. Addiction’s first stage is dependence, during which the search for a drug dominates an individual’s life. An addict eventually develops tolerance, which forces the person to consume larger and larger doses of the drug to get the same effect.
In 2010 sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) have become very common, last year; there were nearly half a million new cases of STDs reported from clinics. This increase is undoubtedly because more and more people are having enjoyable, but sometimes risky, sex lives often with several partners.

Abortion is an issue that evokes, on all sides, very strong feelings and judgments and very heated recriminations. The most radical formulation of the anti-abortion or "pro-life" side of the debate views abortion as the murder of unborn children, and so as the equivalent of out and out infanticide, making the legal use of abortion since Roe v. Wade, at a rate of around 1.5 million a year in the United States, into a holocaust of the innocent fully comparable to the Nazi genocide against the Jews.

FAMILY.

MY FAMILY CONCEPT.
Family is the basic social institution, whose central purpose is to create a common culture that provides physical, mental, emotional and social development of its members; people learn their first moral values, behaviors, skills and attitudes. Nowadays it is created by blood, marriage, or adoption. 

These are some types of families, a traditional family not only American, some Mexican families have the same characteristics than this one, they do not consider and do not worry about their problems and everything is so easy for them, they do not agree with the rules, do that they want and at the end avoid the consequences of their actions.


This other one is considered as a model family. Is a nuclear family that always do everything that is correct, think firstly in other people and then in themselves. I think my family has some aspects of these ones but more the first one; but I show the most common family and the best family and I try to learn about both families.

If all of us think like the creator of this commercial, the world would be more beautiful and if we are conscious about this world does not ours, this one show us some advantages if we would have responsibility about our actions, and talk about good things and bad thongs about us, because explain per each horrible action that occur in the world, a better one will happen. So we ought to do not ask a better world, let's do it.

I think it show us just positive ways, and it tries to persuade us and forget or does not take actions to avoid this ones, just have an idea that some thing is good, but we can consider both ways and improve it.

Psychology
Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior. The discipline embraces all aspects of the human experience, from the functions of the brain to the actions of nations, from child development to care for the aged. In every conceivable setting from scientific research centers to mental health care services, "the understanding of behavior" is the enterprise of psychologists.
SIGMUND FREUD: Known as the father of psychology, Freud developed many of the first theories of modern physiology. His ideas and concepts will continue to be studied through the years. He put forth many new concepts about sexuality, consciousness, unconsciousness and instincts. He spent his whole life devoted to discovering the secrets of the human nature. Personally I think this guy was weird.
When psychology was first established as a science separate from biology and philosophy, the debate over how to describe and explain the human mind and behavior began. The different schools of psychology represent the major theories within psychology. Today, most psychologists have an eclectic outlook on psychology; drawing ideas and theories from different schools rather than holding to any singular outlook.


The following are some of the major schools of thought that have influenced our knowledge and understanding of psychology:
Structuralism and Functionalism
Structuralism was the first school of psychology, and focused on breaking down mental processes into the most basic components. Major structuralist thinkers include Wilhelm Wundt and Edward Titchener. Functionalism formed as a reaction to the theories of the structuralist school of thought and was heavily influenced by the work of William James. Major functionalist thinkers included John Dewey and Harvey Carr.
Behaviorism
Behaviorism became a dominant school of thought during the 1950s. Based upon the work of thinkers such as John B. Watson, Ivan Pavlov and B. F. Skinner, behaviorism suggests that all behavior can be explained by environmental causes rather than by internal forces. Behaviorism is focused on observable behavior. Theories of learning including classical conditioning and operant conditioning were the focus of a great deal of research.

Psychoanalysis
Psychoanalysis is a school of psychology founded by Sigmund Freud. This school of thought emphasizes the influence of the unconscious mind on behavior. Freud believed that the human mind was composed of three elements: the id, the ego and the superego. Other major psychodynamic thinkers include Anna Freud, Carl Jung and Erik Erikson.
Humanistic Psychology
Humanistic psychology developed as a response to psychoanalysis and behaviorism. Humanistic psychology instead focused on individual free will, personal growth and self-actualization. Major humanist thinkers included Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers.
Gestalt psychology
Gestalt psychology is a school of psychology based upon the idea that we experience things as unified wholes. This approach to psychology began in Germany and Austria during the late 19th century in response to the molecular approach of structuralism. Rather that breaking down thoughts and behavior to their smallest element, the gestalt psychologists believed that you must look at the whole of experience. According to the gestalt thinkers, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Cognitive Psychology
Cognitive psychology is the school of psychology that studies mental processes including how people think, perceive, remember and learn. As part of the larger field of cognitive science, this branch of psychology is related to other disciplines including neuroscience, philosophy and linguistics.
One of the most influential theories from this school of thought was the stages of cognitive development theory proposed by Jean Piaget.
