    Regardless of where you end up on this issue, it is good to see young people taking part in government for our own community.

    I can't believe they say were too young to understand. Just because were in high school we too young. its not right.
  •  
    I am proud of Emily for standing up for what she wanted. Not many people would be brave enough to do something like that..
  •  
    i think that its really brave of emily to stand up for what she wants and thinks that is the best. Not a lot of people would do it. But she is standing up for others and her opinion.
  •  
    I understand where he is coming from saying high schoolers are too young to understand this. This topic is all about money, where it is coming from, how much money is needed, how much they will get from it. We do not know what goes on behind the scenes of this deals. Maybe instead of saying we are too young he should of said we are uninformed.
  •  
    I like what Brice said, "we are just uninformed."
  •  
    I hate to say it but i have this intense urge to slap City Council member Matt Walsh...what because we are young we automatically don't understand? More like we have more on our minds then politics and gaining support by being popular with business owners.
  •  
    we have the right to say what we need to say. People have the right to say that they should not be in a public place or anywhere.
  •  
    I also think its good that students are trying to make good points on why they shouldnt own the MAC. There taking a part in this and trying to stop it. But will it help? We will see later on....
  •  
    If he has enough gumption to tell Emily that he is disappointed in her for collecting signatures from uninformed student then he should have enough knowledge to know that we won't know whats going on if we aren't educated on this topic and that it is the generations above us job to educate us and pass on what they have learned to the younger generation. So if he is disappointed in Emily then he should also be disappointed in himself for not doing his job.

Are you better off than mom and dad? - 9 views

  •  
    people these days.
  •  
    I think we are better of some ways then our parents were. However, things nowadays are far more complicated then they were back then. I know that now men are earning less then women are compared to what their parents were..but I think this is simply because men had started out with higher wages, I mean women weren't allowed to work for quite some time, and then when we were finally given a chance to work, our wages were pitiful...we've come a long way.

The girl who silenced the world - 12 views

  •  
    This is the speech of Severn Suzuki, at the time a 12 year old girl who stood up in front of the UN to give voice to those who didn't have one. Read the speech and watch the video at home if you can. It's true and motivating, but it's sad that we haven't seen a change yet.

Kidnapped 14-year-old Filipino-American is free - 1 views

    These stories are sick, how could you kidnap a kid on account of a nation, let alone someone who is unrelated to the situation. But at least he escaped and now back home with his family.

Gay Teen Speaks Out - 3 views

  •  
    Thanks for posting this story. Sometimes issues like bullying and discrimination are hard to personify without hearing how the victims are impacted. I think there was some level of attention at our school with the "give it a ponder" lessons. Do you think our school needs to do more to address bullying (physical or cyber)? Any suggestions?

    Adoption
  •  
    is that a felony or a misdemeanor?
  •  
    It's not really like adoption because you don't paid for giving up your child. I suppose it could be closer to surrogacy because you pay someone a lot of money to carry a baby for you and they give it to you in return.
  •  
    What a crazy lady. She should've just given it up for adoption, at least.
  •  
    People need to be more responsible with their children.. This is absolutely ridiculous! Don't have children if you don't want to take care of them!
  •  
    I've always wanted a pet child...
  •  
    Wow, this is horrible! Just imagine the affects that this will have on the child when hes old enough to understand that his own mother tried to sell him when he was just a baby!
  •  
    Shows how desperate people are these days..
  •  
    7000 wouldn't even cover the costs of child birth. Come on profit margin...

    These types of stories make you question if the age old rivalry of cats vs dogs is really true or just something made up by humans for entertainment
  •

Sandusky Arrested again - 5 views

    SICKO
  •  
    MY GOD. why cant they leave him in prison for once. He cant get away with it anymore so what is their problem with putting him in prison for the rest of his life???
  •  
    for a man his age, rehabilitation will be near impossible. you cant teach an old dog new tricks. If let out he will continue to molest young boys. The only solution, is life in prison.

mom shoots kids and kills herself over.. - 5 views

  •  
    When people don't get the things they need they can get desperate, but it should never get to the point of killing over it. If you can't take care of you kids than you should eather get help or get rid of the kids to someone that can help.

Greys Anatomy Actually Saves Someone's Life - 11 views

    Thats really cool to know something like greys anatomy actually saved somebody's life

    Who would have thought a drama filled TV show like Greys Anatomy, could save someones life
  •  
    That is sweet, who would have thought you could learn life saving techniques from watching television.
  •  
    This is crazy, I've done a lot of research projects on discrimination and violence in the media and it shows bad influences on kids. This is good, it shows that some kids are looking at shows differently.
