Simile

Checks and balances are like a rubber band, if someone tries to gain to much power or control the other branches will pull them  back.
Separation of powers is like parents, they have the authority to control their own children, but do not have any authority over others children.

  1. The rubber band simile is good. Maybe it could be added that if one side gets too much power there is a potential for the rubber band to snap, meaning there could be turmoil in the country.
