Not everyone realizes all the issues that are going on this world, and no i'm not referring to the Japan crisis although that is a horrible thing that nobody should need to go through or experience.
Teen pregnancy is becoming a HUGE issue especially here in America. Miley stayed home yesterday because she wasn't feeling well and we ended up laying in bed watching "Teen Mom". What these girls are going through is extremely tough and our heart goes out to them. Being a young mother isn't easy. I was young when I had my first two kids, although I wasn't 16/17. At that age I don't feel that you are really ready to be a mom but sometimes it causes you to grow up and be responsible and other times it can really hurt you. As a young mom you don't have all the answers and are still so young yourself and being a mom impacts your life in such a huge way. I give credit to all of the teenagers, male and female, who are stepping up to raise their children though. If it is in God's plan it will happen, although more parents need to inform their children about the issue in my opinion and the kids need to be aware of the consequences and try and prevent it.
Bullying, will it ever end? I don't think it will ever end completely, but we have to try. Kids will be kids but there has to be a limit. My kids were bullied and are still bullied today, and as a parent it is very sad and hard to watch your kids go through. Nobody likes to be picked on or labeled so why do we do it to others? If you don't like someone or something someone does just don't associate with them. It's as simple as that.
Obesity is another issue and I know I do what I can to make sure that my family stays active and that we eat healthy. I'm not saying that we don't eat junk food but we try not to eat it constantly. There are many ways to stay active and options for eating healthy and it really does improve your health which is something everyone should strive for.
Well my hands are starting to hurt from being on the computer all day and typing so much on here and so fast so i'm going to go spend some quality time with my family! I hope you think about some of these issues and what you can to do to change your life or someone else's. :)
