    Definitely a common thing I've seen in the fitness industry. People can sometimes get so wrapped up in trying to be lean and fit that they go about it in the wrong ways. They literally workout to the point of exhaustion and then barely refuel their bodies with the necessary nutrients. Which causes more harm than good.
  •  
    Eating disorders are a tragedy, and a sickness. It is definitely evident in this country, more so than where I come form in Canada, as image is more important in America according to studies, appearance can take someone further than education, which is truly sad. Which leads to more people being self conscious, and more eating disorders.
  •  
    Eating disorders affect a great deal of American teenagers and young adults, and a big reason is because society sets standards as to what a male or female's ideal body should look like. Rather than trying to live up to society's standards, people should try to live up to a standard of health for their own bodies.
  •  
    This social issue has been around for many years and it is still a huge issue in the world. I like this article due to the fact that it gives you information on the disorders such as treatments, signs and statistics. All people should be educated on the subject.
  •  
    I think that this situation is sort of a "hush hush" situation so I think it is great that people are talking out about it. If more people talk about it, then maybe people that are suffering from situations like this can be open about it and about getting help. I also think that people opening up about it, will open up societies eyes and realize that people are suffering from this mostly because of the pressure people have to look how society wants.
  •  
    People are so wrapped up on having the perfect body that they fail to realize their hurting themselves. Eating disorders are very tragic, but are also very common these days. We start to think that just because one plan worked for someone else it will work for everyone. The truth is, everyone's body is different and reacts differently too.

Refugees | USCIS - 1 views

  •  
    A clear look into what it takes to be considered a refugee, and educating on what it takes to apply for refugee status. Opens a platform of discussion into refugee reform.
  • ...1 more comment...
  •  
    Do you believe that it takes a specific criteria in order to be a refugee? And what are your views on this if a specific criteria isn't met?
  •  
    I know we should be helping each other out but accepting a lot of refugees all at a time will cause a lot of potential problems. Not that I do not think humanity plays a big role in this but social and educational issues are what we should be also considering. Can we promise to afford them their living standard? Can we provide each of them with a decent job while the people in the country itself are still unemployed?
  •  
    I think that is a great question. Studies show that children or youth refugees are woefully unsuccessful unless their parents are gainfully employed, educated, and many other incredulous factors. Allowing refugees into the country is a completely separate topic than building an entire social infrastructure funded by American taxpayer funds. In order for these refugees to be successful the government is spending millions of dollars per family, and tens of millions per family unit after five years of residence. I am of the opinion we need a complete overhaul of the existing system. I can simply not encourage immigrants to come to my homeland when my kinsmen are dying at astonishing rates at the hands of mental disorders, suicide, poverty, and a host of other contributors. We could be investing those funds into saving Americans, not providing for foreigners.

    Reading this this article i learn that child trafficking and sexual exploitation in the United States have a really high number of victims. This is a very dangerous business how they called it. Thousand of people will continued suffering because of this crime.
  •  
    This article is so heartbreaking, yet it's so important for the public to be informed on this topic. The fact that most of the child pornography comes from the United States is disgusting and hard to acknowledge, but it's an important fact to understand. So many children are exploited every year, and hopefully, the more people realize this and educate and involve themselves on the subject, the likelihood of children being trafficked and exploited will decrease.
  •  
    This is a very eye opening article. It is tragic to know the United States is the main consumer of child pornography. How can this be so pervasive in our society? What can be done to stop the trafficking of such lurid content? A top priority for our government should be to eradicate child pornography in the U.S.
  •  
    This article is very eye opening to me. We often see children in other countries suffering and we want to find a way to help then. Reading this article I discovered that the united states is the number one consumer and producer for child abuse. This article makes me very aware of the negative things americans do that I was blinded to.
  •  
    I knew sex trafficking is pretty much everywhere to date, but I had no idea that the United States accounts for 50% of it. This article is so sad to read because of the reality of it. There definitely needs to be a solution to all of this, you would think that with today's technology and such that we could figure out how to stop this once and for all.
  •  
    This is a topic that, despite its importance, remains unspoken, which is utterly tragic. It was shocking to read that the United States creates the majority of child pornography seeing as nothing is being done despite having so much power. Although this topic is difficult to discuss due to its ubiquitous and unsettling nature, it needs to be addressed and acted upon in order to be capable of abolishing it. As a country, the United States ought to openly discuss this topic and utilize its unity to end the exploitation of children.
