    This kind of article should be spread around to help decrease and get rid of bullies. Many just think that it's only teasing but they don't know that can stay with you forever. This article shows that we do stay with lasting affects when bullied.

    Restorative Justice is fine when you have a student who is willing to put forth the change and in turn is a positive role-model for their peers. Sometimes, it's just a pat on the back and the student is left to deal with the challenges of being in a school where bullying is tolerated by their peers. Sometimes these pre-teens and teens have some serious mental issues that need to be addressed outside of school. It infuriates me that the innocent, kind and quiet kids, become targets for these kids. Bullying is a power play by some very manipulative children. I vote for serious consequences on bullies. Kick them out of school period! 1st offence, your counseled, 2nd offence there is the door!

    This article should be exposed to anyone who has been bullied or bullied anyone.

    It is so sad that someone else's actions can forever alter your mental state or even end your life.

Of the 1%, by the 1%, for the 1% | Vanity Fair - 0 views

  •  
    The gap between the 1% and the rest of the world is growing. The opinion that those that are in the top 1% have earned, and continue to earn that type of income. The reality is that research has proven this is not the case. Research has also proven that those who are not born to the upper class do not have nearly the same opportunities to succeed in life. The system is corrupt. The rich are growing richer off the work of the poor, who are becoming impoverished.

Trump Administration Restricts News from Federal Scientists at USDA, EPA - 1 views

  •  
    Pres. Donald Trump is now restricting scientist's from sharing their research. Officials at the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) have both let their staff know that they can not discuss research done by the agency or any departmental restrictions with anyone outside of the agency. This includes talking to the news, releasing photos, posting on social media, and more.
  •  
    it is frightening to me that our new administration and President are trying to silence science based departments. The taxpayer funds the research that goes on, and therefore has a right to know the outcomes of what they are funding. Gagging scientists because you do not like or agree with what they are saying is childish and has no place in our government.

Expanding Citizenship: Immigrants and the Vote - 1 views

  •  
    A touchy subject but one that has been increasingly more important in the United States, should illegal immigrants be able to vote? The research shows that that their votes play a major role in poles. I think that it's important for people to vote and have a say, but should everyone who comes into the U.S. be allowed to have such a say if not a citizen? Would Americans have that same right in their home country?
  •  
    I am an immigrant myself, i migrated here legally, i pay my taxes, receive no tax breaks even while i make little money, i do not have the ability to vote, and i have done the process through and through, without breaking the law. So i ask, why if i can't vote, should someone who has dodged taxes, came here illegally, and broken the laws of this generous country, have the ability to vote where i cannot?

The Simple Truth about the Gender Pay Gap (Spring 2016) - 0 views

  •  
    This article provides the statistics of women and men's pay and how they differ. Women are paid .79 cents to every man's dollar in America.
  •  
    This is a very reliable source for researching the gender pay gap. It's great that it is up to date. That .21 cents matters.
  •  
    This is very wrong for companies to do. Character is what determines work ethic not who you are physically. its all about the motivation of an individual.
