Dear Sir or Madam‚ I am writing this letter to complain about the episode 3 from the Season 13 of Modern Family where the small girl Lilly uses the f-word over and over again. This is unacceptable and inappropriate! I as a parent don’t want my child to hear the vulgar language on TV. TV programs have a special kind of effect on the children.

In a broader sense‚ humanity is aware of natural morals and values. For instance‚ it is immoral to commit murder‚ theft‚ treason‚ or torture. Select cultures have unique traditions and religious ways that may alter that society’s morals and values but the underlying idea is that within a society there are shared morals and values. In America it is taboo to use profanity in public family settings. Our society does not openly accept all language usage equally. There is a time and place for every thing

Culture has been stated as one of the biggest challenges for a successful offshore outsourcing. It is very difficult to understand specifically problems related to different cultural aspects. The cultural aspects can be understood either by reading research studies or first-hand observations and experiences. In this case‚ I understood the cultural impacts purely by experiences.

Rape contaminates our society. It is an infection that affects every aspect of daily society‚ from perceptions to actions to thoughts to emotions. And all infections have epidemics. Looking at Indian society today‚ it is safe to say that we are in the midst of just such an outbreak—perhaps not in terms of the quantity or quality of such incidents‚ but certainly in terms of the reactions and attitudes towards them. More people are raising their voices in protest than ever before. Awareness is spreading
