Children*
*First of all I do not like when children die (that's not my favorite activity). But since the subject deals with children and most of my best friends are 3 graders (Louis, Jeremy, Alec, Omar, & Steven), I picked this as an "favorite activity" because I had a lots of fun with my friends. Writing the history of children is kind of hard since it is not an activity, but I'll share the activities I played with my 3 grader friends.
Brief History: Children are define as a young person especially between infancy and youth. [I define them as troublemakers.] Children die in many ways they can get ran over by a car, kidnap & killed, illness... Children can also be adbused.
Child
This word
has considerable latitude of meaning in Scripture. Thus Joseph is
called a child at the time when he was probably about sixteen years
of age
(Gen. 37:3); and Benjamin is so called when he was above thirty years
(44:20).
Solomon called himself a little child when he came to the kingdom (1
Kings
3:7). The descendants of a man, however remote, are called his children;
as,
"the children of Edom," "the children of Moab,"
"the children of Israel." In
the earliest times mothers did not wean their children till they were
from
thirty months to three years old; and the day on which they were weaned
was
kept as a festival day (Gen. 21:8; Ex. 2:7, 9; 1 Sam. 1:22-24; Matt.
21:16). At
the age of five, children began to learn the arts and duties of life
under the
care of their fathers (Deut. 6:20-25; 11:19). To have a numerous family
was
regarded as a mark of divine favour (Gen. 11:30; 30:1; 1 Sam. 2:5; 2
Sam. 6:23;
Ps. 127:3; 128:3). Figuratively the name is used for those who are ignorant
or
narrow-minded (Matt. 11:16; Luke 7:32; 1 Cor. 13:11). "When I was
a child, I
spake as a child." "Brethren, be not children in understanding"
(1 Cor. 14:20).
"That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro"
(Eph. 4:14).
Children are also spoken of as representing simplicity and humility
(Matt.
19:13-15; Mark 10:13-16; Luke 18:15-17). Believers are "children
of light"
(Luke 16:8; 1 Thess. 5:5) and "children of obedience" (1 Pet.
1:14). - Dictionary.com

Prediction: I Predict that in the year 2001, 21/100,00 children ages 1-14 in the United State will die. [Hmm the origin is (1990,21)]
Explanation: I predicted this because I drew a line-of-best-fit through the graph and estimated where 2001 was and I went up on the graph until I met the line and I went across to see what the death reath was. My Graph has a function and it is Nagative Slope.
