Pros And Cons Of Being An American Teenager

I think birthright citizen should be abolished. It would be unfair to the people who work hard just to be an American Citizen. It takes a lot of process and it’s expensive. And undocumented parents coming to the U.S. and making a child that's officially an American Citizen, just because she/he was born in the U.S. soil, my opinion is that it’s unacceptable. It’s unfair for others who came in the United States illegal and applying for American Citizens, that takes years since you have to live in the U.S. for more than 4 years to be able to take the test for being an American Citizen.

Being an American today should be looked upon an honor and a privilege. Being an American you can witness what 9/11 was all about and how it all came apart from there. It’s harder now to see how we are still standing and how we overcome all these problems that are out there. We are still recovering from all that was broken all around us.

Although Americans may have a bad reputation,Being an American means to be a free individual, have a voice and being patriotic.

Being an American is something I’m proud of, I have a lot more freedom than other countries. The Declaration of independence was declared on July 4th, 1776 and ever since then the government has only gotten better. Some of the reason the government has gotten better is, we have to ability to vote, and the government is making decisions and is projecting the rights for the citizens.

“When the cat’s away, the mice shall play.” The person that inspired my life is Caleb Wells. I looked up to him, metaphorically and literally. He taught me to be adventurous, to be a leader, and to be creative. Out of all the people I have met, he has left an impression in my life, even if he was just a babysitter.

I wish we could all remember that being american is not just about the freedom we have; it's about who gave it to us" (Mike Huckabee) What does being an american mean to you? Is it because you were born here? The clothing you wear? The accent you have? Or

Everyone has encountered an individual in their life that that has greatly influenced them to be the person they are today. Some will find it is through direct family members, friends, or a public figure. In my own life, that individual is musician and poet Alex Turner. He has influenced me in a number of ways including; inspiring me to take writing seriously, introducing me to new literature, and teaching me the art of thinking before speaking.

One person I personally know that inspires me a lot is my father. My father has always been very involved in my life and had a very positive impact on who I have become. He came to the United States when he was eleven years old with nothing. The English language was foreign to him and everything was being risked. The comfort of being in a place you have been all your life and having friends and family surrounding you was gone. Yet his parents knew this was what was best for him, so they brought him over. Things were not easy for my father and some of my family members either. They all lived crammed up in a one bedroom apartment. However, they were not discouraged. My father fought and fought for what he wanted to achieve. I admire him greatly because of how hard working he is. Everything he has accomplished today was thanks to his amazing work ethic. This is what really makes me want to be like him. If I am able to strive and fight like he did, especially with my studies, I have faith I will achieve all I want.

My Father: The Person I Admire Most Over time, there have been several people who have influenced various aspects of my life, based on their personal characteristics, accomplishments, and values. I have been privileged to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders, who have inspired me by their contributions to society, and their ability to change our futures. Of all the people I have encountered in my life, the person I admire most is my father.
