Happiness is something that everyone desires and wants to get. And, seemingly, by the time we are early adults most of us think we should be getting some happiness. As it turns out, happiness is less something you get, and more something you experience. Instead of getting, it seems to be a state that some have and some experience. Pick one of the following: Income, Health, Age, Gender, Parenthood, Intelligence, Attractiveness, Work, Religiosity, Genetics, or Friendship. In one cogent paragraph (no less than 400 words), explain whether your chosen variable is a low, moderate, or high predictor of happiness. This should be empirically (research) based. Are people with children more likely to be happy than those without? Is age a good predictor of happiness? Pick the variable that interests you. Some of the research might surprise you!

a complex sentence consists of an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.  

to write complex sentences, we must use subordinating conjunctions.  

all the complex sentences begin with a subordinating conjunction and when it occurs, a comma must be place at the end of the dependent clause. on the contrary, if the sentence begins with an independent clause, then no comma is used.
