    This article criticizes the concept of political correctness preventing higher thinking in academia. The author is a survivor of rape and discusses how using trigger warnings can be helpful in a classroom setting and does not minimize the learning experience. The author provides an anecdote, as well as an example of a 'get to know you' worksheet she uses at the University she teaches at.

    I really like the use of "trigger words" in education. I don't think it matters if it is used in college or in K12. The whole point is to alert you to a possible trauma causing conversation or topic that could come up in class that could make someone uncomfortable. Unfortunately there are so many triggers in the world today that you could never call out all of them. The teacher made reference to an apple. Who would think that was a trigger? Not I.

    Here is the integration plan that outlines the opening of training to women into the Navy SEALs. Leaders warn that this grueling training regimen may yield vary few passing results, as it already has a high attrition rate for males.

    One Texas school has made headlines in recent weeks with a sign on school grounds warning that its teachers are armed. People don't want teachers to be armed its not a good intention to have them in front of children.

    This article states generic information on the different types of abuse then leads into specifics.It displays facts, warnings, and signs of a domestic violence in relations. Becoming to controlling, demanding, and jealous are a few examples they specify. Any type of abuse may not show early on, but become more clear as the relationship progresses.

    I have witnessed domestic violence first hand and the devastation it causes. It isn't always physical abuse either. A lot of times it is verbal and manipulative. It is very sad that insecurities and mental issues have such a devastating effect.

    Domestic violence can be physically, sexually and mentally. Many people now days want to have control of the relationship. When a person is starting to be possessive and controlling is a sign that you are going to be miserable with that person. People are free to do whatever they want to do, think how they want to think. we have to take action. No more domestic violence.

    I would like to see more of a punishment for cases involving abuse. So many cases slip through, or are not made a priority due to it being such a common issue. It is tragic to think someone can get away with victimizing family members, partners, or even strangers. I also believe substance abuse plays a huge role in why people want to have the upper-hand on others.

    This is an issue that should not be happening in the world today. It is important that we focus on controlling situations such as this so they stop being so common.

    People need to be more aware of signs that could possibly be domestic violence. I also think that we should learn more about it as children in school, and even offer ways for young ones to seek help if they're afraid.

    I find it very sad that suicide is the third-leading cause of death for teens and young adults. This article is very clear on what signs to watch for, how to address the person if you do see signs and how to get them help. I feel that after reading this article I will feel more comfortable speaking up in a situation if needed. I hope you guys read this and share it with friends and family.

    D'Arcy Lyness, PhD is the editing body of this article. These are the types of sources you want to use in a paper surely! http://kidshealth.org/media/khexperts/lyness.html This is a link to her accomplishments in field. I believe she is very qualified and this article is highly reputable. However I would like to see some statistics that support some of the claims in the article. I spent about 10 minutes reviewing the information in this article and have found some conflicting information(s). https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/pdf/suicide-datasheet-a.pdf Above is a snap-sheet posted by the CDC summarizing suicide in 2015. The article I am responding to is dated August 15th. In both places the leading cause factor is different. The CDC claims that in ages 15-34 that suicide is the second largest contributing factor to teenage death. The internet is sleezy. I don't know what to believe anymore.

    This is a great article that goes into depth about what causes suicide, what to look out for, etc. Some parents are kind of in the dark about this type of stuff, so it's awesome that such a source exists for parents before it is too late. It makes me sad that it is the third-leading cause of death. A permanent solution to a temporary problem..

    I agree 101% how terrible it is that this is the third leading cause of death. Life should not be about spending your time planning on how it will end. I am now happy though that I have the right tools to know how to deal with this type of social justice.
