Facebook has turned out to be the number 1 reason for break ups according to researchers. That may seem surprising to some but once you think about it it’s really not. There are conversations all over Facebook that start drama between couples. Sometimes it’s because of exes or because of girls or guys who don’t like the relationship. It has become an internet problem throughout the world.
I think that it’s ridiculous at how many people actually cause those problems. Just leave the couple alone. I know many people who broke up because of Facebook and I don’t think it’s fair to them because they were probably so close and one status or one comment could change everything. I feel so bad for those couples. They always say it’s for the best but it’s not because just a couple days ago we said how much in love you were in with the other person. One website shouldn’t change everything. You know you still have feelings for the person so just let it go.
People should just stay out of other couples business and get a life of their own. You don’t want people try to ruin your relationships so don’t ruin theirs. I think some of these comments and status could also be considered cyber bullying which is illegal in Delaware so why even get in that much trouble anyway. It’s just not worth it.

Reality TV and Over-Exaggerating Parents!!!
Almost every teenager watches reality TV shows. Adults always say that these shows are brainwashing us. Are they just over-exaggerating? I mean they try to look out for the best for us but banning us from watching some of our favorite shows is a little too much.
I think they are taking this too seriously sometimes. Not all shows are horrible. Some shows teach life lessons to young teens and they sometimes send out messages as to what we should do and what we shouldn’t do for the world and for ourselves. Some of the shows show what people are doing in the world or about different lifestyles.
I also agree with parents when they do over-exaggerate when its shows not appropriate for young kids. I think that some shows are rated a little too low for what they actually should be rated. Even though they beep words out, we still know what they are saying. They mind as well just not beep them out. Although if parents do want to catch their kids watching a show they told them not to and they start hearing the beeps, it’s a great way to know that the child shouldn’t be watching that. Sometimes parents do what’s best for us and don’t want us to get in trouble later into the future.
I think that parents are just trying to keep us safe. Kids just need to stop talking back if they know it’s not appropriate. If your parents tell you not to watch something because they think its inappropriate just let them know that it’s not and it’s about something normal and safe and won’t have an affect over your life.

You're Being Watched
Just think, every time you log onto the computer someone is watching you. Your every move is being watched by some Red Clay consultant. You really don’t have any privacy what so ever when you log into the school computers. So when you play a game, they can see what game you’re playing. When you type something, they can see what you typed. Is it ethical for them to do that?
I think that they shouldn’t be able to do that. I t kind of invades our privacy as students. The people who watch us we probably don’t even know. It kind of freaks me out knowing that every move I do is being watched even though the people who are watching me barely know me. I still would be kind of freaked out even if my family or friends were watching what I do.
I think it is okay for them to that as well. Students shouldn’t really have anything to watch or anything that would get them into trouble. Another reason is if a person writes about how they’re going to beat someone up or they’re going to kill themselves then Red Clay should then step in and stop that person. That is a reason why I feel safe in school.

Abortion is not the Answer!
Young teens have been getting pregnant all of the country and their first instinct is abortion. There friends and parents say they’re supportive, but are they really? People around the country have been talking about it. People argue over well its right or not and the arguments sometimes get out of hand. Is it really that bad?
I think abortion is a bad idea. The way I think of it is that you’re killing a baby inside of you. The baby is human life and you’re killing it. I think that too many people think its okay. I think that shouldn’t even be on the list of choices. If you couldn’t handle the parenting then you shouldn’t have gotten pregnant then. There is always adoption there are plenty of people in the world who would love to adopt a child.
In conclusion, I think that abortion is the most horrible thing. I feel if you can’t handle it then give up for adoption or ask for help from family members or friends. There should always be someone who will stick by your side and always remember that.

Violence is on the Loose!!
The United States has been named the number one country with the most people who have a possession of a gun. There are 90 people with a gun out of 100. The second country with the most is India. In every 100 people, there are 4 people who own a gun. The question is: Are we as or more violent than other foreign countries?
I think our country is very violent. On the news, they announce about 10 people dead everyday. I think this is a big crisis for our country. Some of the reasons for these murders are sometimes caused by riots or protests. As Americans, we do have a right to protest and say whatever we want. This may cause problems with violence and deaths. Some of these protests involve gay rights and people who think they deserve rights don’t try to mess up every possible chance from discouraging them from protesting.
As for other countries, they don’t seem as violent as our country. I don’t think any country can really compare. I think it’s because we are so used to violence in the world that when there something violent happening in another country we kind of avoid it and we’ve been there and done that. Either way I think we’re the most violent country in the world.

Time for Homework
Everyday teachers give homework, but why? Is it really worth our time as teens? Half or maybe more than half of students probably hate homework with a passion. Do students really need homework? Teachers tell their students that it’s the best way for them to practice and expand their education. I sort of agree. I have an opinion for both sides of this issue.
I think that homework is a great thing. Homework can help you practice the basics of what you learned that day. I think that as students we can become more aware of what we learned and how we’re going to use that as we get older. People complain about homework all the time. It’s really not that bad if you manage your time right. I sometimes wish there was more.
I can understand why some people hate homework. There is always an up and down to every situation. The downs are pretty consistent. Students usually say they have sports or they have dance and they won’t get home until late. That wouldn’t leave enough time to get a good night sleep. I guess it’s a logical reason but I do sports too and I get my homework done in good enough time to get a good night sleep.
What I’m saying is that homework is a good thing. It’s a key to learning and expanding your knowledge. It’s really not worth complaining. Just always do your homework.

Texting While Driving
A lot of people have been in dying car accidents lately. People have also gone through depression or they are sad all the time because some they loved died in a car accident. The reasons you ask seem very consistent. One of those reasons is the people are texting while driving and cause an accident. It is probably one of the biggest issues that that the country is having problems with.
I think that people should ban texting while driving or enforce a new law to prevent people from doing it. I know a couple people who were involved in accidents like this and it’s not easy to go through. Seeing articles in the newspaper that have to do with this issue make me realize how much people are so careless these days. I think that we should head this era of killings and start really caring.
My favorite saying I heard is ‘Text while driving if you want to go to heaven.” This means that texting while driving is a very dangerous situation and if you want to die then go right ahead and text. Just know that if you don’t kill yourself you might kill someone else who didn’t deserve to die.

Teen Jobs
Teens all over the country are pressured by their parents to get jobs. It is a very stressful thing for most teens. In this economy, there are pretty much no more jobs available. People are losing their jobs constantly almost everyday. Teens might think that it would be too much to handle. I don’t blame them but I also don’t blame the parents for pressuring their children to get jobs.
I think that there are many reasons why teens don’t need to get jobs. One of the reasons is that there has been a lot of school work lately. Trying to keep up with classes while keeping up with your work schedule can get difficult. Also, if your part of any extracurricular activities likes a sport you don’t want to let your team down when you have to work all the time. I don’t think I would be able to keep up with all those things.
I think that teens should get jobs for the following reasons. Some parents can’t afford to send their kids to college. So they might tell their kids if they want to go to college they better work really hard and get a job so you can go to college. Having a job can also make a person become better rounded. They could look like to different colleges that they can work hard enough and maybe they should accept them. Those reasons are why I think I’m going to get a job.
Jobs are very important to teens and more teens should be involved in getting a job. I think it would make them look more professional and they would have good experience when they go on job interviews. Get a job but also stay in school.

Ching! Ching!
Athlete’s pay is outrageous these days. Some players for NBA, NFL, and the MLB get almost around $1 million dollars a year or even more. That’s a lot of money. Some of the players have been playing since they were age 5 through high school and into college and now their playing in the big leagues. During those early years most of the kids would say they did their sport because it’s fun. Then why do they get paid if its something they think is fun? They should be that they get to play a sport they love and not ask for any money doing it.
I think that the pay is getting ridiculous. I play sports and I don’t want money for it. The experience I get from playing these sports is amazing and that’s all I want is to learn something from being on a team and working on life goals. I think that the athletes should get another job and play sports for a side thing for fun, with no pay. They are pretty much rubbing all their rich and in our face when they score a goal, get a touchdown, or get a homerun because they just received $1,000 for helping the team and for something they should do anyway in a game.

Paparazzi
The paparazzi has been following actors, singers, and victims of the media. We’ve seen them in magazines and in newspapers. From Britney Spears to Paris Hilton have been victims. They’ve been seen doing some embarrassing things in their lifetime. The paparazzi are the reason for these stories and headlines. Some of these victims just think that they are plain annoying and they need to find another job. The stars can’t enjoy their private life because the paparazzi make their lives miserable. Why can’t the paparazzi just leave them alone?
I think that the paparazzi are just plain annoying. The same headlines about the same people always seem to show up. I don’t need to know that Britney Spears shaved her head and wears pink wigs every time I buy a magazine. I don’t want to have to read about the same person over and over again over the same story it’s just annoying. I mean I like true facts about people if their getting married or they did something good in the world. Hearing about someone’s hardships in life is just depressing. I think the paparazzi should just get lives.

A Country in a Crisis
The USA government has made yet another ridiculous law. Each family is not allowed to have no more than 2 kids per family. They think that the country is too over-populated because of the immigrants that keep coming over from other countries. If you family has more than 2 kids the 2 youngest kids of the family have to find a place of their own or they are going to be an orphan in another country. This sounds a lot like the problems that are happening in China except in China you can only have one 1 kid unless you pay a fine then you can have more children. The difference between these situations is and the situations in China are that the citizens of the USA aren’t allowed to have no more than 2 kids at all they’re not even allowed to pay a fine. It’s only 2 kids and that’s it.
I have a strong opinion on this topic. I don’t like what the government is doing. If they’re worried about the population then they need to stop the immigrants from coming over or not to except them. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are going to be a lot of boycotts. The government better watch out because this could get ugly.

The Left-Handed Big Mac
McDonald’s published a full page advertisement in USA Today announcing the introduction of a new item to their menu: a "Left-Handed Big Mac" specially designed for the 32 million left-handed Americans. According to the advertisement, the new whopper included the same ingredients as the original Big Mac (lettuce, tomato, hamburger patty, etc.), but all the condiments were rotated 180 degrees for the benefit of their left-handed customers. The following day Burger King issued a follow-up release revealing that although the Left-Handed Big Mac was a hoax, thousands of customers had gone into restaurants to request the new sandwich. Simultaneously, according to the press release, "many others requested their own 'right handed' version."
I prefer the right handed Big Mac. Although, I’m not really am I a fan of McDonald’s, I think this is a great idea. Those people who are left handed probably feel left out so I think this is a great way for people in our society who are left handed don’t feel left out anymore.

SWAN ATTACK!!!!
Scientists have been researching the reasons for the H1N1 flu for the past year. While they were researching, one of the scientists decided to make sure that they would be ready for other flu’s that come up the road. Well while they were coming up with these vaccines they considered a swan part of the bird flu, but that was a big mistake.
People in South America have been dying of Swan Flu within seconds of each other. This has been the deadliest flu in the world to date. The swans have been migrating up towards North America since the summer is coming and they want to be warm but not near the equator. Obama wants to put cages all around the U.S.A so the swans can not come in. “Scientists do not have enough time to put a vaccine together. We need to something about this and fast,” the president said outside his white home.
Many of you should be afraid if you catch this flu, you could die within minutes. I would shut your windows, close all doors, and never come outside again.
