ENC 1102 Assignment "Oral Presentations"

The first day of oral presentations went very well. It was very interesting i would have to say. The first 3 presentations were set up perfectly, they all were prepared and spoke without any worries. Which i must say is very good for doing an oral presentation for the first time in our class. The topics were gay adoption, abortion, and adoption in general. The topic i found to be of more interest was gay adoption. I agreed with Kathryn when she was saying that even though she is a christian and is against the whole gay marriage issue, in her eyes it would still be a issue to consider when gays want to adopt children. For the childrens best interest she would rather have them placed with a family or a couple that is willing to take care of the children then have them placed on the streets without someone that cares or would be willing to care for them. She had some intersting myths to her presentation as well, that i thought was a valuable assett to her presentation such as one in particular, children raised by gay parents will grow up gay themselves. I find that very harsh and offensive to the gay community, even though i am not fully for gay marriage i do think that the society is changing everyday socially and that the gay community will be even more excepting in the near future. I do agree that adoption should be open for gay couples, i mean even celebrity couples are doing it, that tells you alot right there. Overall, all of the presnetations and powerpoints were great, it was a wonderful learnign experience.
