If the person could afford a hefty amount of money to overcome their addiction.I would strongly recommend them to go for a treatment in a retreat resort in Bali called the Comoshambhala estate at the Begawan Giri.The experience let them to have a recovery and a professional doctor will be with them to really understandr their problem.They will do the best for them and if it is gaming addiction , i would probably think that they will try to brain wash and they will do some kind of Ayurverdic treatment which they will overcome those addiction with an interpretation of yoga and hydro therapy pool.Beside this , a perosn can also stop gaming addiction by doing a timetable to set a time where by they can play games on certain days and parents plays a big part in handling their childrens addiction as moral supports from parents can motivate the children to stop online games.

1) What were the reasons given by Facebook parent, Rashida Husian, when she requests access to the networking sites and also to what her children had put online?
She mentioned that by accesing her daughters Facebook profile , it is very convenient to track down her daughters well being and friends she is chilling out with.I feel that this is a very good and judgemental ways of keeping track of our children in the modern days.Thus , it is definetly efficient.She has also stated that the most proficient answer why she uses facebook was actually to keep in touch with her daughter and she will also post some encouragement to her daughter if she feel they need it.
2) Do you think it is a good idea to accept requests by your parents to add them readily to your friends’ list on the Facebook? Why?
For me personally , it will definetly be a good idea.But of course , we have to put in mind that some parents do not have the ability to acess or use the internet and computer.In my case , my parents do have the ability but they just don feel that Facebook is really for them.But if we were to look into another perspective , it will be a good form of communication and it will strengthen my relationship with my parents.My parents can also track down my personal matters and they can view who i am mixing with.There will definetly be a form of limitation if my parents were to be added in my Facebook as it will not give me the ability to post pictures that is too revealing or probably something that is shocking.I would also like to change the perception that my parents has which is the thought of Facebook being only use by the tennagers.I feel that they should not put it this way as they ca also be part of it as Facebook has approximately 20.000 users which ranges from the age of 38-49.

QUESTION 1 :What were some of the reasons cited in the article why there was a need to have parking lots for women only in these buildings?
The representative from the (AWARE) stated that carparks should be accesible in a perspective as such that it should be near to lift lobby so that it will be much easier for the ladies and there should be a good lighting system , so that the ladies will have a clear visibilty and in addition to the biasness , there is also a closed-circuit cameras fixed to the carparks so as to ensure the safety of the female drivers.
Question 2: (a) In your opinion, do you think it is necessary to allocate parking lots for women only? Why?(b) Which group of people do you then feel should be allocated such priority parking? Explain.
(a).For me personally , allocating parking lots just for the ladies with a little explanation from the peoples who created this dirty plans are ridiculous as they should take note of the disadvantages as such that it will bring a slight changes for the mens and it will put them in a pace where there is much more benefit given to the ladies then the gentlemans.This should not be happening as we in Singapore do not live through biasness action and this has to be brought up in the news as there should be a fair situation where by there also , do take in consideration of the gentlemans who also visited the places.However if we were to look it in a another perspective , the goodness of having parking lots which caters specially for the ladies in general "spoilt aunties and tai tai" , they would feel that this worlds belongs to them as there is no hardship in taking a parking lot in the carpark and they will feel like a quuen and so on.
(b).The authorities shoud cater this benefits to the people who needs a priority such as pregnant ladies who are driving as she will need a safety walkway so that she will be in a safety enviroment as there has been cases where by they had a miscarriage in an accident and probably more parking lots for the highly growing percentage of drivers in Singapore who has registere for the handicapped licensed where by there could park in the handicapped parking lots.I would like to stressed it up that the authorities should create more lots for the handicap passangers as i have been in a situation where by this inconsiderate drivers has just park in a handicap lot when they do not own a licensed issued by the traffic police.
