    Bullying exists everywhere! I like this article because it provides ways for an anti-bullying environment. At some point in time everyone has whiteness someone being bullied, has been bullied personally, or has been the bully. Its a tragic subject that can lead individuals to suicidal attempts and depression. How long will it take before people realize this matter is crucial especially in educational environments, social media, and even in politics.
  •  
    I just found out that my wife is pregnant a week ago and this is one of my greatest concerns as a soon to be parent. No one should have to go to school and be open to abuse. Great article and I appreciated the ways that it states to make safe environments.
  •  
    Bullying.....we always hear the word bullying and this is one of the most scary situation in the world. Million of people have killed themselves because of bullying. we have to stop bullying.
  •  
    This is such a common topic and has been for so many years. Bullying has been around for so long and now that social media is extremely popular it seems to make it worse. We have to do all we can to prevent this due to so many students committing suicide because of such extreme bullying.
  •  
    As a parent of a bullying victim, I feel there is much that can be fixed when dealing with this issue. the only thing you can do as a parent is talk to the administration and after that, your hands are tied. They are the ones that talk to the student and the student's parent. The only notification you get is that they had a meeting. In the meantime, your child is being retaliated against, their self-esteem continues to deteriorate and their schoolwork suffers. I wish there could be a more proactive approach. There came a time that I didn't get any communication until I sent an email to the entire school staff, Principal, and Superintendent.
  •  
    Its definitely an issue that far too often is overlooked. I am not a parent, and can only imagine how parents feel when their son or daughter is a victim of bullying. The issue definitely needs to be addressed, no one should have to attend school worried or concerned about how their day is going to go. It is very saddening, and disheartening.
  •  
    I feel like bullying has become more and more of an issue over the years. It is sad to see what is going on and I would like to see more schools implement programs to stop it.
  •  
    Bullying as gotten bigger over the years especially dealing with how big social media is getting. I wish school and adults would help stop this issue because it is always overlooked.

Sex Trafficking - 1 views

  •  
    This website is from the sex trafficking national hotline. It defines what sex trafficking means, and provides data to the issue here in the United States. It provides us with resources to help stop sex trafficking if you or someone you know is in danger.

  •  
    This is definitely a good website for sex trafficking and provides a lot of data to make people more aware of it.
  •  
    That's awesome you're finding organizations that help human trafficking while going through the research process. I'm interested in this topic as well and spreading awareness is very important!
  •  
    Still undecided about my topic but I am leaning more toward sex trafficking so this website will be significant in my research. It's wonderful that they have sites out here that clearly show a phone number immediately when they get on the site. You never know how much this could help someone!
  •  
    This topic is one that we can all agree needs to be stopped. Its awesome that the site offers advice on how to get involved available in many different languages to read.

Bullying - 2 views

  •  
    School bullying prevention tips. The website includes expanded information on cyber bullying, how to assess situations, and how to get involved. Unfortunately, bullying has evolved into a community involved issue and not just a parenting issue.

    This is a topic that I feel strongly about. I always felt sick to my stomach seeing any type of bullying while I was growing up going to school. I believe that the consequences to students who bully, need to harsher than they are.
  •  
    My wife is a kindergarten teacher and sees "bully" characteristics in her students at such a young age. It is an ongoing issue that I feel most schools disregard even though they have "anti-bullying" rules. It is a scary issue as it not only negatively affects students' academics and school attendance, but also their quality of life. There is also the issue of cyberbullying which allows the bullies to hide their identity and messages being sent via the Internet.
  •  
    I like that this article gives almost a list of what to look for and how to intervene. My wife teaches fifth grade at a public school and every time I walk down the halls I see some form of bullying but am unsure what to do. I usually say something to the kids, but then always wonder if I am overstepping my role because I'm not a teacher or the other student's parent. Also, I ask myself "could I get in trouble if I had to intervene?".
  •  
    Bullying has became a bigger issue than people realize it is, it is sad to see kids get hurt. I like how it gives a list and how to deal with the matter for the children.
  •  
    There are always anti-bullying rules, but how effective are they when students feel they can't come forward? I think there should be more focus on teaching students how to treat each other and that they should intervene if they see someone being harrassed.
  •  
    At the end of the day, bullying is going to keep going until there are more kids stopping it than surrounding the first whipping their phones out to record. Everyone knows deep down that being a bully isn't fun, but who is going to stop that bully? Who is going to make him feel like the dumb one for picking on someone younger than him? That is how you stop bullying.
  •  
    This site has a ton of information on bullying and how to deal with it. Preventing bullying is a top thing in our country and this site gives some good information on every aspect.

Whale Wars How Sea Shepherd Works - 0 views

  •  
    When Paul Watson says that he and other members of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society risk their lives to save whales, he isn't joking. Every winter, the Sea Shepherd staff and crew set sail to the treacherous Southern Ocean to stop Japanese whalers from catching and killing nature's largest mammals.
  •  
    I used to love watching their show on discovery channel. I agree they do risk lives every time they go out to stop the Japanese whalers. I do feel that the conservation of whales is important to our environment. I went whale watching in San Diego over the summer and they are magnification animals.

People should not be forced to retire at 65 - 0 views

  •  
    This website argues that people should not be forced to retire at 65. The website goes into detail about age concerns and how if the government were to tell people to stop working at the age of 65, that it would breach, at least for the European Court, equality requirements. This website also argues how it could be considered as a discrimination of some sort. 
  •  
    Retirement is a huge controversy subject. The age, rules, and regulations of retirement. SSI income and much more. This articles helps identify a lot of questions about it, but still why have such a higher age of retirement!

Drinking and Driving - 3 views

  •  
    Making the right decision some time means safe life's. Drinking and driving is one of the big mistakes that people make during their life's.
  • ...2 more comments...
  •  
    Drinking and driving is very common in today's society. I like this article because not only does it provide facts about faculties, but also provided a visual emotional touch while reading. People are effected everyday due to someone driving under the influence or while intoxicated. It's good we have things like Uber, taxi's, and buses that help lead away from driving drunk, which in return will lead to safer roads.
  •  
    It's still upsetting to me how much of a problem this is in society. It's not anything new yet it still hasn't been stopped and that needs to change.
  •  
    Drinking and driving is not only wrong, but its completely selfish. You are not only putting your life in danger, but you are also putting others in danger. There are many different routes you can take rather than just getting into your car intoxicated.
  •  
    Ugh, I hate that no matter how many times you can say to someone "please call me and ill pick you up" and they still choose to drive themselves home because they do not want to "bother" you. This is such a big issue in our society that everyone needs to learn to stop doing. I feel that Uber is helping in some way lately though!

There's been a lot in the news lately about deliberate cruelty to animals. It's heartbreaking to see the things people think it's okay to do to another living creature.
  • ...3 more comments...
  •  
    How could someone hurt an animal? I don't understand why people are so cruel. It's terrible that they are overlooked. Animals need to be taken care of just like humans.
  •  
    Reading articles about animal cruelty make me extremely sad. Things like this should not be a problem yet it happens all the time.
  •  
    Anything that brings up animal abuse it extremely upsetting to me. Things like this needs to be stopped it should not even be an issue.
  •  
    I do not agree with animal abuse.
  •  
    Animal cruelty needs to be stopped. It is so horrible to see what abuse animals go through.

Supreme Court Must Protect The Individual Right To Marry, Not Limit Individual Rights - 0 views

  •  
    Applied to marriage, assuming what's not true, that marriage between two men offends me, it's not the government's role on any level to protect me from being offended. Whatever one thinks of marriage between two men or two women, the argument that such a union negatively impacts those who aren't gay, or those who blanch at marriage between gay people is not compelling. Here's hoping we don't stop at marriage in expanding individual rights, rights that are natural, and that should exist free of political or voter influence.

    Here is another article about censorship online - more specifically censorship in online forums. Often times when there are rules set up to protect the users from bullying, they prevent the victims from speaking out more than they stop bullies from tormenting other users.
