Summary
            This article talks about how successful women tend to prefer older, handsome men. They want men who are older than them. They do not like young men. But successful men or most men tend to like women who are younger than them. Also, financially successful men can date young women who a younger than them by at least 5 years to 12 years. But financially successful women prefer a sense of humor or handsomeness and old men. They like to meet a man who older than them at least 2 years to 5 years.

Reaction
            Through this article, I can learn about successful women’s ideal style and how successful men want to young women. After I read this article, I know what the author said, which is that financially successful women prefer handsome and old men. That is because old men tend to talk with their life, value and good conversation. They have similar age and similar style. They do not look like their son. But many financially successful men want to meet women who younger than them. That is because they tend to look women’s beauty and young. For example, Hugh Hefner who made magazine called Playboy. He married a young beautiful girl. She was 60 years younger than him. It looks like weird but most of financial succeed men tend to marry with young girl. But financial succeed women did not marry with young men. Sometime they married young men it was not many like financially succeed men. Furthermore, also my friends who women, they were like old men. They want to marry old men. But men’s side is different. Most of men want to marry young women.  I think it is common society at situation and it will increase more and more like this married couple.

Summary
            This article is talking about warning signs from a troubled mind: what parents should do. Nowadays, many adolescents suffer mental illnesses such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. It can make adolescents’ behavior violent. They tend to have delusions and hallucinations, or abuse dugs. Also, they think about odd things and do strange behavior. If you do not care about this behavior, adolescents can do crazy things like shoot somebody without reasons. Sometimes it will not occur but still is dangerous. So parents should do something for their child. Many experts say they need help from the medical center. The parents should to go to the mental hospital with their children. And parents should care more about and pay more attention to their children. They should reach out to them and talk a lot like friends. It is very helpful way for adolescents. In short, the parents have to care about their children’s behavior. If you find odd things about your children, you should to take them to the hospital or to therapy for them.

            Through this article, I can learn about why we care about adolescents’ behavior and what parents should do when their children got mental illnesses. After I read this article, I know what the author said; we have to pay attention to our friends and parents have to pay attention to and care about their children. That is because we can prevent awful situations and we can treat those who have mental illnesses. Also, I agree that we can figure out warning signs and help them. For example, my friend who is living in South Korea has a mental problem. When the test’s coming, he looks weird. He did not wash his hair or body. And goes to the bathroom a lot. And he talks about odd things like aliens and the test. So we took him to the therapist. The therapist said that he has a paranoid. So he took medicine and was successfully cured. Thus, I think we can notice warning signs and help them. Also, I learned through this article, parents are important to their children’s mental state. If they are not successful in their work with children, their children tend to lose their way. They feel confused and anxious.

After I read this article, I know what the author said, that is profilers can help to solve the crimes when it is hard for us to find criminal cases because they kill people for no reason. That is because some criminals have mental illness and they like to kill people. Especially profilers can be a big help in those cases. So we need profilers. For example, I saw on the news that one man killed 10 women without reason. It was hard for the police to find criminals. So they asked the help to profilers. Profilers find the criminals and it is helpful to our country. We are scared to walk alone at night and feel nervous because of murderers. I think it is very helpful to our country’s safety. Also, I learned through this article, profilers are important for our country and we will need more profilers. Furthermore, I want to study profiling because I want to catch criminals and it will be nice to me and our country. I think we need to improve our profiling investigation and profilers.
