Is Extreme Parenting Effective? 

It seems counterintuitive that parents who practice an extreme parenting style do not allow their children to choose their own activities, but a part of the parenting style is that a child is unable to complain about not being able to partake in certain activities. While some parents believe that tough love is the answer to having the perfect child, the conclusion can be drawn that Chinese parenting styles are not the most effective as it can limit a child’s development and involvement. By having such a tight grasp of control over a child, a parent can cause more harm to their child’s life instead of raising them to become the perfect child they long for. 

KFC, Pizza Hut, and Sphinx

It seems counterintuitive to have multiple chain fast food restaurants next to some of Egypt’s most historical landmarks, the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx. By planting two American fast food restaurants directly across from historical architecture, it takes away from the beauty and sacredness of the great Egyptian site. The chain restaurants being placed in an area populated by primarily tourists shows the influence American companies have over all of the world. 

Dogs Earn More Cred For Sniffing Out Cancer

It seems counterintuitive that a dog is able to identify cancer faster than million dollar medical devices used by medical professionals. After receiving a few weeks of training, dogs are able to identify various forms of cancer from smelling a human’s breath or blood, allowing the dog to recognize the life threatening illness inside one’s body. Considering medical professionals hope to develop a medical instrument as powerful as a dog’s nose, it is safe to say that a dog is a medical miracle who will save the lives of many.
