of the country. Report your findings and does this change your perspective on the death penalty

your response, conclusions, and opinions. Your response for this question should be 250 words.
Solution
Capital punishment is abolished almost everywhere in the globe except few countries and few
states in the U.S. There are few things to be considered in favor of abolishing capital
punishment. Firstly, it is inhuman in this civilized and digital society where even life of the
animals is respected more. Secondly, the cost of trial and execution is much more than a life
sentence trial. Thirdly, the post traumatic stress that the family members of the executed will
experience and finally, the wrong convictions means innocents are punished. Once a death
penalty is executed and later when the person is proved innocent, no one can bring the life back.
The states should look for opportunities to prevent such crimes right from the school days by
identifying trouble makers and counseling them appropriately rather than keep killing people.
It’s true that punishments reduce crime but there is no proof that capital punishment has reduced
crime considerably..

Solution
Developmental milestones are things most children can do by a certain age, these are crawling,
walking, jumping. talking etc.
These milestones are usually classified into three categories:
i) motor development
ii) language development
iii) social/emotional development
In the first year, babies learn to focus their vision, reach out, explore, and learn about the things
that are around them. Cognitive, or brain development means the learning process of memory,
language, thinking, and reasoning. Learning language is more than making sounds ("babble"),
or saying "ma-ma" and "da-da". Listening, understanding, and knowing the names of people
and things are all a part of language development.
