I believe Piranhas should not kept as pets because piranhas are so expensive because they eat a lot of meat and meat costs a lot of money. They should not kept is pets because they can eat your hand when you feed them. Piranhas should not exist because sometimes when you go to lakes and swim there could be piranhas and eat you.

I think we should have Babysitter Robots.
For our children to be save.
You won’t get stressed.
Mothers could do some errands while kids are at school.
Sometimes you don’t know what to do.
Babies could have Fun while being baby sitted.
In conclusion I think we should have Robot babysitters. To help in the house.
I think we should not have Babysitter robots.
They could brake.
The robots might explode.
The battery could die will your doing errands and the Baby might fall from the stairs.
Babysitter robots might go wild.
In conclusion I think there shouldn’t be robot baby sitters.

I am a dragon I believe people would not come in my cave or in my forest. Because people broke my treasure. I would eat people if they are in my home. If they broke my treasure they would pay for it. I scare people if they do not pay for it. There was a prince. He wanted to slay me y was in my cave. Then the prince fall in my cave. I laughed at the prince. I was going to eat him for lunch with a sandwich. Mmm I: it was good.

I believe that there should be free Lego sets from Jan. 1-Nov. 28th because my first reason is hat a lot of Lego set cost like $99.99 for a set that has 408 pieces! My second reason is that Nov. 28th is two days after my birthday 11/26 and I want free Legos on my birthday. My third reason is that my favorite Lego set that I want is the coolest Lego set ever the titanium command rig and I really want it but it cost $99.99 and I don’t have that money. To do this I will write a letter to the founder of the Lego company Kliyd Kirk Johnson and say I want free Lego sets from Jan. 1-Nov. 28th because that day is two days after my birthday 11/26 and I want free Legos for my birthday. In conclusion, I think Lego shold be free from Jan.1 –Nov. 28th.
