The prospect of supervised homes for teenage mothers was one of most relevant policy announcements Gordon Brown made in his speech. About the policy Brown said in the conference that: "I do think it's time to address a problem that for too long has gone unspoken, the number of children having children. For it cannot be right, for a girl of 16, to get pregnant, be given the keys to a council flat and be left on her own,"

Education
My education in the high school was in general very bad. Respect the subjects, only philosophy and history were good subjects. Respect the teachers, in general i had a very good relationship with them, especially with my language teacher. Respect the technology, my high school had a very good infrastructure, but wasn’t used.
The high school education that i received haven’t really affected the decisions that I have made in my life. Maybe my decisions have been more affected for the people that I join and that with they talked.
For my experience, I think that the government and congress should promote in first place a new legislation that gives a access more equal to all the people for a quality education and in second term I would propose more money for education.
Definitely, the people don’t have responsibility for education that receives. Are structural conditions that determine which is the education that everyone receives. But, it’s also true that only when the student is ready to learn, the teacher can teach.

Criminal Laws
I think that the capital punishment in no case is a good solution to reduce criminality. To Think otherwise would mean having as a premise that all the population thinks in a rational way. As a matter of fact, the people act according to the reality that they are living. For example, if a person has lived in a home with violence it’s very probable that the same person does the same acts.
Definitily the capital punishment doesn’t have any pros. This punishment gives shape a society with hate, anger, violence and revenge. A society like described above don’t have any chance of moving towards a more just society.
Respect the criminal rates, i think that there are two reasons for believe that we lives in a city with criminality. In first place a ideology of fear and insecurity that has locked everyone and in second place a society with high levels of inequality. In addition Chile is one of the countrys of Latin America that have a law level of criminality. For this i think that the most important is reduce the levels of inequality; and the government should worry about that.
I've never been the victim of a criminal act, and very few people that I know have been victims. the only person that I know has been victim of a pick pocketing is my mother.

What to do / where to go in Santiago
Santiago is the political and administrative capital of the country, has the largest number of people across the country and has a large number of museums, cultural and recreational spaces especially at night. So Santiago is one of teh cities most attractive from the standpoint of cosmopolitan in Chile.
If a foreigner tourist ask me what places to visit in the city exist, should definitely say that the most important are The Museum of Fine Arts, Contemporary Art Museum (MAC), Forest Park, "Cerro Santa Lucia", "Cerro San Cristobal", The "Quinta Normal" park, Brazil neighborhood and the historic neighborhood of the city where is the palace of goverment.
Besides visiting all these places, a foreigner tourist can visit the bohemian neighborhoods and of entertainment in the city, among them are "Lastarria neighborhood", the "Barrio Bellavista", "Barrio Brasil", "San Enrique" Square and "Ñuñoa" square. In these areas people have a very good time, for example dancing, drinking, eating internacional food and food more typical of the country also.
The 5 most important places to visit are: first, the historic Neighborhood of the city because in this place you can find the palace of government, the Citizenship square and you can see how the city was few decades before, and second place the Museum of Fine Arts because it shows the development of art in the country. In third place The Cerro San Cristobal because we can find the botanical garden, Japanese garden and other beautiful places. Fourth place Brazil Neighborhood because it combines fun and story and fifth place lastarria neighborhood because you can have a very good time.

Suecia: a beautiful country
In general I would like to know Europe, specially Sweden. A very nearby person has said to me that it’s a beautiful country from the point of view of the architecture and of the landscapes and that in addition socially it is an igalitarian country.
Sweden is a Scandinavian country of Northern Europe that forms a part of the European Union. The people of Sweden have a high standard of living, and the country is known like modern and liberally. In the 20th century it has been located constant between the countries by better Index of Human Development (IDH). Sweden has a economy strongly regulated by the State, which has been known as “model Swedish” and presented as example of the socio-economic offer of the European social-democracy.
I would like to know the different places of this country, to visit the principal cities, to understand how the people relate, among other things. I think that to know the reality of a totally different country, would be one of the most fabulous experiences that might pass. In addition I would be charmed with being able to live at least some years there, for me to be able to study and work and in general have another form of life.

First Term: Good and Bad points
It is interesting to do an inventory of what I lived during the first termo of this year. Precisely provided that it is possible to do a balance of the good things and the bad things that happened.
In the university it me was OK, I approved all the subjects. Last year had not approved a subject called “Sociological Theory 3”, nevertheless this year I could approve it and was very important to me, have learned things that before had been an evil understood. There were some subjects that were more difficult, but in general I obtained an acceptable qualification in each of them.
With regard to the sports activities and of leisure the result was not so positive. In general i realized more cultural activities, which is positive; nevertheless, I did’t realize many sports significant activities. I hope that this semester the situation changes.
The challenges that in general I had to confront were relating to academic activities, which in general I overcame sufficiently.
With regard to my family I cannot say very much, the truth is that we live in different cities and I could’t share very much with them, but they know that I love them very much. One positive things is that I knew more deeply to other persons and today they are my friends.
The past semester had goods and bad points, but in general the balance is positive.
