    It is heartbreaking when you know how kids can suffer. According to some investigations the majority of kids that are kidnap get kidnap by someone they know. These are only 15 stories of kids that were kidnap and is sad because there are thousands of kids that are killed after they being kidnap.

    This article is incredible and devastating at the same time. It's heartbreaking that these people had to go through what they did, but it's so amazing to see how their instincts and the help of others were able to get them out of such horrifying situations.

    The stories of the children being kidnapped were shocking. Just to think that many of those kids that are abducted are usually taken by people they know. It was good to read on some stories where kids could still get through what they went through and marry and have children of their own.

    Wow, these stories are so sad. I can not even begin to imagine what it must have been like. It makes me happy that these 15 kids made it through those horrible situations and are able to talk about it today. Although those tough situations make you a stronger person, these kids were able to have families of their own and that is a good thing. It is even more sad to know that there are thousands of other kids out there going through the same thing if not worse at this very instant.

    Reading stories like this just make you cringe. It's crazy to think that this is a major issue in our day. It's good to read and see how they live after they go through this traumatic experience.

    A scientist in New Jersey found a way to combine the traits of two mothers into one egg, which is called cytoplasmic transfer. It is believed that 15 adolescents are currently the product of that finding. This is frightening because it poses a threat to the human genome.

    This has statements of people whom are angered at the age limit restriction Obama set on the morning after pill. It's stated that it's safe to use for women under 15. The women's group think younger teens should have the right to be able to use it.

    Democratic presidential nominees Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders are both fighting for stronger paid leave laws, including paid vacation and paid maternity leave. This will be helpful in keeping women in the workforce.
  • arielyokley on 11 Sep 16
     
    I'm interested in this topic too. I feel that organizations who offer this benefit will see the return from the parent when they return to work. I've seen some new mothers return to work when they are not ready, and they end up having decreased performance, or end up looking for new work a few weeks later so they can be with their new baby more. This creates more cost for the company than paid leave would have.

    Children with special needs in China are discriminated against while trying to get an education. These children with learning disabilities are not accommodated while trying to join their peers that may not have any disability, in school. Families are forced to send their children away to schools that are separated from the rest of the public.

    Education is such an important topic. The fact that we are required to attend school up until 15 or 16 years old grants a closer look as to what we are even being taught.

    This article focuses on the food shortage in Africa. Unfortunately, this is affecting many, many adults and children in many countries in Africa. The article advises that the main cause of this food shortage seems to be the drought in these countries. Now I think that if the governments of these countries had some help to get it together, this could really help the people. Some of the countries are also raising the prices of their food, making it harder to buy-- worsening the problem.

    Many insurance companies- like Aetna, are concerned that the low premiums with Obamacare are too costly. Aetna will still provide individual policies outside the realm of Obamacare but will not participate in federal government subsidies.

    It is pretty interesting on how Obamacare is beginning to cause problems for insurance companies. This is definitely going to affect families greatly in the coming future.
