Many things in the world should not exist, in my opinion. Some things are just very unnecessary and don't need to be here.

Mosquitoes should not exist. What do they do to benefit us? Absolutely nothing. All they do is suck our blood and make us itchy and give us weird diseases. We don't need that in our world.

Summer assignments should not exist. We work our tails off for nine months out of the year and when it comes time for our break, we have to do more work!!!! How is this fair? I get that people who want to be in advanced classes should have to do more, but why can't that work be done before school is out or when it's back in session?

Cauliflower should not exist. It smells really bad and takes even worse. It's like a white version of broccoli. The green must make broccoli taste better because it's great.

Gender roles should not exist.  I think that any girl can do what any boy can do and vice versa. Why does it matter what sex you are if you're capable of getting the task done?

Violence should not exist. I don't know why we all can't just get along. Why must we fight with one another? It's not solving anything. It's just creating bigger problems and making everyone's life harder. I know I sound oblivious or too naïve, but maybe it is that simple.

Racism should not exist. Why did racism even begin in the first place? Tell me why in the world it matters if I have darker skin than you. How does that make me a lesser human being? Racism obviously still exists, even after all this time, especially with older people. I hate it when I hear people say that they can't date black people because their parents or grandparents wouldn't approve. "Old fashioned" they say. I just don't get it. Maybe I'm missing something. They say we're bad people because of the color of our skin, but they're the ones passing judgement on people they don't even know.
