Research exploration!

The media presents photos of young kids working on a farm in various activities. The ones I chose in particular and designed to remind adults what made them the people they are today. For example, “The hard work we hated as kids, made us who we are today.” The key phrase in this example is, ‘the work we hated’ indicating that the work was not enjoyable by any means but it was necessary to become strong mentally and develop characteristic attributes that are vital to becoming successful in life. The words that are bolded are, ‘HATED’ and ‘TODAY’ those also are in all capital letters, apart from the rest of the words being all undercase. In other words, no pain no gain. Or the phrase, ‘You reap what you sow.’ What you put in is what you get out, the harder one works, the greater the harvest will be. The children in these pictures look pleasant and like they are enjoying working hard.

 One photo displays a boy with his hand tasseled with ropes and wearing a big cowboy hat with farm boots along with carrying wood in his hand shows society in this picture that this young boy is learning lessons that most adults have not. My prediction of the photo is that this boy is fencing. A job that is performed in the heat and is long and grueling. This also shows that the hard work they put in now is so valuable that it should not be taken away. Such as the work in big bold letters, ‘Inconceivable’ this also means how blatent obvious it is that kids who work on a farm are some of the hardest most disciplined workers, and taking that opportunity away becuase of child labor laws in hindering the growth our the nation and needed lessons to help it continue to succeed.A great source for more ideas and inside:

The 3rd picture displayed shows a teenage boy smiling as he is raking hay. Colors in this photo are bright. The boy wears a neon yellow shirt and the words are a bright orange, designed to catch consumers’ attention. The highlighted words are, ‘Farming, Strong, In the next generations.’ It’s implying that the importance of farming is not necessarily the outcome for consumers, but what the worker is gaining, a work ethic, traditions and a lifestyle of work that will be passed down to his children and their children.
