What is government?

Have you ever wondered what the word 'government' means? Does this word sound strange or familiar to you? Well, as we move on with our next unit of inquiry,it is important for us to know what government means. All you have to do right now is ask your parents or any adult to explain to you about this word. Don't bother looking into the dictionary yet because it's too techinical. We want a definition which came directly from people who experienced living in a system where government exists. Goodluck on your word quest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. Dear Mr.Perico,
    I learned that children has no right to be abused or sell drugs.And be killed.The children also has responsibilities such as study hard,so that it would help their countries.It could be a part of their good future.The government must care about the children because if they don't
    they will suffer such as these problems like homeless,hunger.taking drugs and etc.The children rights and responsibilities are the responsibilities of the government.The government must not only care about their own life but the childrens too,to have a better future for them.

  13. Hi! I think some of you mentioned ideas related to the real definition of the word 'Government'. My question is, 'Does government refer to a person or a group of people working together for the country?' I'm actually confused with some of your definitions because others are saying that 'Government is a person'.

    My other question is 'Is government a leader?' or shall we say 'There is a leader in a government' or 'Leaders are needed to make the government work'.

    Try to make your statements clear.

    In posting your opinion, perhaps you can say 'I think government is..........' or 'I think government means......' not 'I suggest that the government means....... ' because you are not making a suggestion. You are expressing an opinion or you are just mentioning your idea.

    Hmmmmm... we've got a lot of things going on in here...... hope to hear more from you Eagles!
