Global Issues

7 01 2009
In class we are exploring world issues and learning why they are wrong. I chose 2 topics, child abuse and animal cruelty. I think that these were good topics to choose because they are somethings that needs to be changed.

I think that we should subscribe to these websites I found. They talk about Child Abuse. A child abuse survivor talks about what happened in her childhood and she makes you think really hard about the issue.

The other blog is a great blog  about child abuse around the world and the news on it. They are both great places to learn about child abuse. They will teach us a lot and I think that we should subscribe to them. I believe they will open our eyes more and we can feel what these kids are going through. Some of these kids are our age and yet, younger. I found a poem on the web about child abuse. You have probably heard of it before, yet everytime I read it I feel so sad. I have a video for you to watch.

I hope that people understand the need to stop this, and I hope that we subscribe to these wonderful sites that explain so much.

The other issue I found was Animal Cruelty. I went to one of the websites and saw a video that broke my heart. Industries in China torture these animals, then skin them alive. Do you think that is fair at all? Imagine being that animal, and having your skin peeled off you.. while you are alive. Imagine the pain these poor animals go through. I would absolutely hate it.

I found  these 2 websites that make you think really hard, and watching the video make me feel so sad. We should subscribe to these websites because they are made for good meaning, they teach us that what they are doing is wrong. They open our eyes to the issue. I understand it much more now, and I know it is not right. These websites show that it is wrong, and we should stop it. I think that they are very good websites and I believe they would do our classroom well. If you watch the video on the websites, you will be sickened by what is going on. Believe me, it is not a pretty sight.

Let’s subscribe to these sites, we will learn so much.

Ohmygosh, that was so sad! I suddenly have the desire to rip that little girl’s dad’s head off. If I ever got my hands on him, he’d wish that he’d never been born!
