I have watched the news and noticed a lot of problems like racism, child abuse, and bullying. These social issues are big problems because these can major consequences. Such as gays who get bullied are committing suicide. Also people being racist to other people and some die because they don't like being made fun of. These are big problems.
One issue I heard was that gay teens and adults are committing suicide because they are getting bullying on because they are different. One person committed suicide because some stupid people put a camera in his room and made fun of him because he is gay. Bullying is becoming a big social issue that can cause the loss of life. The bullies do it for fun. They think that making fun of other people is fun but it is not. I hate it when people pick on people. Why can't everyone get along and there won't be any bullying? Well that is not reality.
Another issue that I heard is that there is a kid who gets beat up by his family. He doesn't want to go back and rather go to a foster home. When the reporters went to talk to his family they answered with violence. The kid told the reporters that they hit him with sticks and other painful stuff. I think it is very wrong for child abuse. It is not the child's fault he/she made a mistake. People should teach them through kindness not hitting them with sticks. I know how it feels to be hit by a stick because I got hit by sticks plenty of times.
This experience was very helpful because I became more aware of what's going around the world and how tough some people's life's are. Now watching the news is more interesting and helpful. It gives me more info about the world and the effects of social issues. You should be more aware for social issues.
