Classroom discussions are a struggle for people to participate in because people get interrupted and lose their opportunity to speak. With many people seeking a good grade, they take every opportunity they are given which leads to interruptions. I personally have experienced this numerous times while discussing in class. For example, during a discussion las semester I started to talk but immediately got interrupted. This happened throughout the discussion and I lost my opportunity to share my thoughts. As a result I ended up receiving a grade that I didn't want. I think it would be best if we did small group discussions or even this type of discussion we are doing now because there are less chances for people to be interrupted. Clearly, students struggle with discussions because they get interrupted and lose their opportunity to speak.

Classroom discussions are hard to participate in because they can be extremely intimidating. Many people have a strong voice and opinion, which can make it extremely difficult to voice your opinion. Personally I have not done well in these class discussions because I am intimidated by my peers. I am afraid to have people judge what I have to say and I so not want to offend anyone. Some of my peers have really good points, which makes the discussion that much harder.I n a class discussion it is important to be aware of students like me who might not have as strong of opinions.

I think the government should definitely require parents to get their kids vaccinated. It affects their health throughout their entire life because they are more prone to getting an illness. Also, it affects the people around them too. Getting vaccinated doesn't always work so unvaccinated kids can easily get others sick.

I believe us teenagers don't talk very much in discussions because we are afraid of what others might think of our comment. That's true for everything like what we wear, how we look, etc etc. Also, we might not talk that much because of the topic. Even if we're required to do it, we might not put in our best effort if we aren't interested in the topic.

I believe kids must be vaccinated. Because who knows how many kids died, because their parents didn't vaccinate them. I once had a friend that lived in des moines. He had been found that have cancer, and he luckliy survived it. But soon died a few months later, because he caught measles, which could've been prevented if his parents vaccinated him.

If I had to give up one thing in my life I would try to eliminate stress. Stress gives me anxiety and makes me shut down sometimes. With all the stuff piled on it can sometimes be hard to manage everything. If we reduced or got rid of stress I think that would improve peoples mental state, and mood as a whole

If there is one thing I would give up in my life, it would be injuries. Injuries are taking athletes out of the sports they love to play and causing them to lose skill from they time they spent being out. One of my friends tore her ACL last year and couldn't play for many months. She was very upset because she enjoyed playing soccer and was very talented. Taking the time off also caused her to lose her skills so when she started playing again she had to start going over the basics again. Clearly, it would be nice to remove injuries from our lives because it takes people out of the sports they love most and causes them to lose the skills they once had.

If I could give up one thing it would have to be my negative attitude. Too many times my negative attitude about a situation only things worse. For example, I did not want to have to take out the trash this week since I did it last week. My negative attitude made that situation worse because I threw a pity party and I got in even more trouble. If I would have just made the best of the situation and took out the trash without my attitude, my mom and my argument could have been avoided.

In discussions I generally have a hard time finding things to say, either because its already been said or it won't add anything to the discussion. In the discussion about social media that talked about anxiety and depression, I didn't have any personal evidence or even facts because it isn't a topic I know much about. Generally, anything I want to say has already been said and mindlessly agreeing adds nothing to the conversation.

A lot of students struggle with classroom discussions because they are afraid of being judged. There was only one time for me where I didn't say something because I didn't want to offend people. In some cases kids just dont do the prep work so as a result they dont really have an opinion or know anything about the topic being discussed. Also some people just don't care. Some kids just don't do the work and they don't care about the topic either.

I would give up unhealthy habits. I try my hardest most of the time to work out and always be active. Sometimes I still end up having unhealthy habits that could prevent me from continuing to stay healthy in the future. If I could give them up for good it would only give positive benefits to my life.

Something that I wish I could get rid of is stress in high school. I have a problem  with volleyball because of pressure that has been put on me for next. Through the year I have figured that i play a big role and I am held to high expectation. Because of this I have felt extreme pressure and looked down upon if I don't perform well or if I don't show up to something. I believe that next year everything will be okay and that I just need to stick through it and I know that once volleyball is over, everything will be okay.

I have asthma and it makes it hard to breathe sometimes. As a runner it really sucks to have asthma or as an athlete in general. Breathing is really important in the sports I do like track, swimming, and cross country. Ive gone to the hospital twice after having asthma attacks. One time I was in the hospital for over a week. I would be really nice to be able to breathe normally without any restriction.

With the many diseases and illnesses resurfacing today governments should require parents to vaccinate their children. The sole purpose for vaccinations is to ensure that illness do not make a comeback and can protect those around the world. When parents take away this option for their children who can get the vaccine, it puts those who medically can not receive the vaccine at risk for the disease/illness. Putting this in the hands of the government will only ensure the positive progression of the health of those in the United States.

To build a stronger community and not be so scared to share about anything is to stop judging people. I think that if people would stop fearing of speaking just because they may view or think differently then you do, shouldn't stop them from speaking their point of view. I sometimes think that people on going to judge me on what I say, but I think that I don't really care and say it anyways. Speaking out more can bring people closer in a community and could find people who share the same view points that you do.

If we didn't get tired or need to sleep we could work longer and athletes could practice longer. When I am at tennis practice I find that after an hour of playing I am quite tired. If I wasn't able to get tired I could play longer. As high school students we are often given a large work load wouldn't it be nice not to get tired and be able to work on it more?

If I could get rid of one thing in my life it would be overthinking. Overthinking causes more problems than it does benefits. I do understand that it allows me to be extra cautious about my decisions but it also causes unnecessary stress and consumption of my thoughts. Overall, life would be a lot more laid back and relaxing without thinking about every move I am going to make or that actually
happens.

If I had the power to completely get rid of something from life, I would give up self doubt in a heart beat. When it comes down to it, the people who are the most successful in life are usually the same ones who are confident in the things they do. So I figure if self doubt is completely out of the picture, what kinds of things could I accomplish? People who are artistic, wouldn't be afraid to promote or experiment with their work because they wouldn't talk themselves out of trying. Someones self doubt is especially inevitable when negative comments or insecurities are pointed out. These things effect people in more ways than can be seen.

The government should require parents to vaccinate their children because it not only protects your child but it will protect others in the future. Forcing parents to vaccinate their children takes away their choice and what they want for their child but it’s more important to try to kill or prevent deadly diseases that can harm more people in the future.

Classroom discussions have been a struggle for some students because everybody is just competing for a good grade. With everyone trying to get a good grade there is a lot of interrupting and talking over others so it makes it difficult for some students to contribute to the conversation and get the option to share their opinions and ideas on the subject.

# data[].attributes.body
Classroom discussions have been a struggle in past because some topics do not hold the same interest or knowledge for every individual in the room. The variety of personalities in classrooms may also contribute to this. Some students may be more outgoing, shy, and anxious than others making it difficult to get everyone engaged. These factors combined with the natural flow of the conversation can make it hard to have a coherent class discussion.
