"I think that semester tests are necessary, just so that the school can get a sense of what you retained. I feel like projects would also be a good alternative to semester tests since they aren't as much pressure per se. I feel like semester tests…"

"I think that paparazzi should be banned unless they are on a red carpet. On regular days, I do not think it is ok to follow famous people, their family, and their children around. I think it is an invasion of privacy. It doesn't matter how famous…"

"We should have an open campus, I think it is ridiculous that it was changed. I feel like the school should trust high school students enough to return to school when they need to be back. Almost every student is responsible, we barely ever have…"

"I think that the 14 years of school is reasonable. The early years are when we learn to read, write, communicate properly, do basic math, care for ourselves properly, etc. Then, we get into the more complicated parts of these topics. High school is…"

"I don't think that Photoshop should be banned, but it should be used with caution. The internet has made so many people, especially teenage girls, insecure. It is important not to change your body in Photoshop. I feel like social media should…"

"I think that taking a gap year is a really good idea, especially if you are paying out of pocket for your own education. It gives you time to save up more money. It also gives students a longer break before going into their preferred education.…"

"I knew of parts of the Watergate scandal, but not all of it. It was really nice to get educated on this topic, especially because topics like this usually aren't brought up by the forum. I didn't really have an opinion on Nixion before, but my…"

"I think that it can be useful when it comes to loneliness, but other than that, it is honestly kind of creepy. There have been a lot of people reporting creepy things that their ai has been saying, doing, etc. I like my ai and it hasn't done…"

"I beleive that women should be able to choose if they want something growing inside of them. If you see it as murder, that's your opinion. In my opinion, it is not. "

"That's the thing, you morally think it's wrong and I think it is fine. Your opinion is based on the Bible, and that's ok because we are in the USA where you are allowed to be what religion you want. But once again, not everyone believes in the…"

"So taking away a mother who wants to continue to be there for her children, instead of letting herself die for a baby is greedy? "

"I understand where you are coming from, but you have to realize nobody is excited or happy to get an abortion. As a woman, I would NEVER want to bring a daughter into this country without reproductive healthcare being around. It is important for so…"

"I think that schools should help students' mental health a lot more than what they are doing right now. As a person who suffers from depression and anxiety, it can be easy for me to get overwhelmed. I love meditation and I think it would be really…"

"I think that the pill should be legal. There are many reasons why women get abortions, I think people need to mind their business and let people do what they want with their bodies. A lot of people are pro-life because of religion, I don't think it…"

"I wear AirPods a lot of the day, in fact, I'm wearing mine right now. I don't think they are damaging my ears. Now, if I have the music WAY too loud, sometimes I feel a little pain, but damage, none. I think that AirPods are safe for your ears, just…"

"I personally know people with childhood trauma. I feel like the best thing people can do after going through a traumatic event, is to get mental help. Therapy is very good for people that have PTSD, depression, anxiety, etc. The whole point of…"

"I feel like the only solution to this problem is gun control. The 2nd amendment protects our right as US citizens to bare arms, but you have to think, how powerful were guns 200 years ago? I believe we have the right as citizens to own guns, but it…"

"I have lived in both bigger cities and the country. The country is definitely more peaceful and clean, but the city is so much fun. I enjoy the chaos that comes with living in the city. I also like how close you are to stores, entertainment, big…"

"I feel like this bill should not be passed. There really is no way to actually enforce this law without our government invading teens' privacy, which is what they are trying to "protect" us from. I understand to an extent where they are coming from,…"

"I personally think that being an only child is better. I was an only child for a while and I wish I could go back to being one. I think that being an only child allows you to have all of your parent's attention and allows your family to do more. It…"

"I don't think it should be required to graduate, but I do think it is good to do. I feel like learning a language is very beneficial, especially with the diversity in our country. We have a mass amount of immigrants and being able to communicate…"

"I feel like having a sports psychologist would be very beneficial for athletes. I know that the pressure that comes with being an athlete on TV is probably terrifying. I bet that many athletes feel pressure to try and be the best. Getting overworked…"

"I think that seatbelts should be required for everyone, especially teens. They can get a cover or pad to help if someone is uncomfortable. There is no reason someone should not wear a seatbelt because it's uncomfortable. People die all the time due…"

"I feel like MAID should be allowed for the people that really want it. If a person is suffering or in pain, they should be able to have an option, especially if they are terminal. I think it is unethical in certain situations. If you are suicidal, I…"

"I think that dressing rooms would really help malls. Since COVID, a lot of them have been closed. It is really frustrating having to buy something you can't try on in-store. I feel like that is causing people to buy online since you can't try the…"

"I think that he would go through with the war. When you are in NATO and another NATO-affiliated country is attacked, you protect them. That is really the whole point of NATO. I feel like the war shouldn't even be going on. I feel like war is so…"

"I think that what happened was awful. She was definitely mentally ill, to even think about doing this to other people. Since she went to that school, I would assume that maybe something bad happened to her while she was there. That doesn't make it…"

"I did not know about the impact of palm oil on rainforests. It makes me sad that they purposely kill our rainforests for a type of oil. I feel like it is essential for companies to use alternatives so that we can help our environment. Rainforests…"

"I feel like they shouldn't be banned from sports, but not go against biologically male or female people. You know when there is a dual meet and they have males and females in the same race, but they aren't going against each other? I propose…"

"I feel like we should have school out early every Wednesday. I feel it would be beneficial to get out and relax a little bit early. It would be a little pick-me-up in the middle of the week to help students get through. I like our current schedule…"

"I feel like there should be an age for energy drinks. I understand that they are a good pick-me-up in the morning, but they are bad for you. I feel like teenagers having to rely on some sort of caffeinated drink to get through the day is so sad. I…"

"I personally think that Trump is guilty. In New York, it is illegal to pay someone hush money, due to it being a form of blackmail and/or bribery. I feel like he probably did try to interfere with the elections, but there are also allegations of…"

"I do think that fast fashion is a big problem. I feel like people should be prioritizing buying high-quality clothing that they can keep for a long time. I also think that thrifting and secondhand stores are good alternatives to fast fashion. I…"

"I agree, finding ways to be more sustainable would be beneficial. Innocent animals will die and humans will be affected in awful ways. I feel like the Willow Project should not have been passed. There are more sustainable ways to make fuel, like…"

"I agree, this is very horrible and cruel. The animals are going to get their environment completely messed up. The Native people in the area are going to be negatively affected. I feel like it shouldn't have been passed and it is very stupid that it…"

"I agree with you. I feel like politicians are not paying attention to climate change enough. I feel like drilling is very harmful to our environment. It isn't worth it when there are other ways to make fuel, that don't harm our environment as badly.…"

"I agree with you. Alaska's natural habitat is going to be severely affected because of this project. The people and animals in this area are going to be negatively impacted. It will kill animals, their habitats, and their migration. It will hurt the…"

"I agree, I feel like we are definitely killing our planet. The people and animals in the area are already going to be affected severely. But think about how it will affect all of us. Metric TONS of greenhouse gases will be going into our atmosphere.…"

"I completely agree with you. Not only will this affect people and animals now, but our future! Our Earth is already on a steady decline. There is so much drilling and mining already. Why do we need more? To make life easier for us? That isn't worth…"

"I agree, there are definitely good and bad aspects to this project. It would definitely benefit our economy, but it would hurt so many people and animals. I feel protecting people and animals is far more important than natural resources. The…"

"I feel like taking care of living humans and animals is more important than our economy. We are talking about living people, that feel pain, and that will be affected forever. The negatives outweigh the positives. I completely agree with you when it…"

"I agree that our economy is down, what people have to pay for gas is crazy. I am not as much worried about the future effects as I am about what is gonna happen now. The Native Americans in the area are going to encounter horrible respiratory…"

"I agree, there are definitely positives to the bill. We would get more oil to make fuel but do the positives outweigh the negatives? I don't think so. The respiratory health of the Native Americans in the area is at risk. Animals and their…"

"I completely agree with you. I am concerned about the future effects it will have on our planet, but mostly I am worried about the people and animals. The respiratory health of the Native people will be harmed and it will hurt animals and their…"

"I don't think that being vegan is pointless, especially for people allergic to animal products. I feel like it is none of my business if someone chooses to be vegan. Veganism lines up with certain people's morals. Just because you don't have the…"

"I feel like technology at school is very important. It is beneficial to have assignments online, especially if you are sick or on vacation. It is easier to make things up. I also think that technology in school is important because of all the…"

"I feel like transgender care is important, but we also don't know how much it can affect people in the future. I believe that if a transgender kid and their parents choose to make these life-altering decisions at a young age, that is their decision.…"

"I think that vaping should be banned. There isn't enough research to determine how detrimental vaping is, but I feel like it is worse than cigarettes. It is also awful how many teenagers are vaping. I feel like cigarettes and vaping should be…"
