more harm than good. Labels such as "victim,"" cripple," and
"wheelchair-bound" are demeaning. They invoke undue pity
from telethon viewers and resentment from the disabled.

masquerades and ultimately, a grave societal dilemma is
presented by them. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Telethon.wps

Cohabitation / Problems : A 5 page paper discussing the
problems that can arise from living together without marriage.
Living together has caused far more controversy than just the
value of maintaining laws that are no longer enforced. The
focus here is its effects on traditional marriage and social issues.
Though the most common opinion is that there is nothing
“wrong” with living together either instead of, or before
marriage, there is increasing evidence that there is indeed
something “wrong” with it, to the extent that it is listed as a risk
factor against the success of subsequent marriage between the
same partners. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Cohab.wps
