In the movie Pay it Forward the theme of the movie is to simply “pay it forward.” It means to pay your dues by helping strangers out because you were helped out by a random stranger. This seems like a childish attempt to be able to pull out the kindness inside of people. A convoluted plan which involves making people feel liable from being helped. In some cases it does work but there is too much greed for it to have much of an impact. It also seems like a great idea but, nowadays people don’t care much for the strangers around them so I don’t believe that this idea will work. The main reason is the capitalist society where people only worry for themselves. There has been some times where I “paid it forward”. During my way home I saw a mother carrying her daughter while tugging her son inside the bus. I offered her help to carry her stroller inside and even paid for her bus fare, why not. I did feel liable to help her out because there is several times when I didn’t have any money for the bus but was helped by a stranger. I felt good knowing that I helped a mother in need but not everyone feels the same.

I believe for children to develop it is better that they should have an intellectual environment. Having a comfortable living conditions makes a child more dependent on that type of lifestyle. In other words your making the child soft by keeping them in those conditions. Children should be put through trials if they really want to grow. Seeing how most children are now they feel like everything should be handed to them instead of working hard to earn it.

As adults people choose their path from then on. And I believe most adults do have the opportunity of doing what they want. Only responsibilities should come prior to their decisions. Such as kids, food, and shelter should always come first.
