I understand that these people are struggling of an alcohol problem in there tribe. And there Children should not suffer just like there parents are. This makes me frustrated that this U.S is not doing anything to help these people.

I feel a connection to this because my family lives on a reservation in arizona and i see some of the same issues. They get free water and money from the goverment for each household but, they continue to use it in ways that are only depleting the number of residents living there because of the amount of deaths caused by drunk driving.

I understand that Pine  Ridge is a native reservation that was given to them by the government.
I feel bad for the kids that drop out of school. one reason is because most of the money they get goes to alcohol and not to them

# data[].attributes.body
Pine Ridge is in need of change in there culture for instance people need to stop drinking while there giving birth because it is pretty pathetic that 1 in 4 children are born with fetal alcohol shyam or effects. I think that if 80% of residents are unemployed they shouldn't be allowed to live there because they aren't contributing to anything.

pine ridge seems like a very unplesent place

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that they have been struggling for so long, and nobody is taking the leadership to do something about it. I fell like this is a sad place to grow up in and the people that are there before the kids its there fault.

1. I understand that Pine Ridge is a place where a lot of things like alcohol, drugs, and join gangs, also make Pine Ridge a bad place. Gangs always cause trouble and people get hurt.

I think that Pine Ridge is a bad place for the people that live there, it has a bad community, it's not really wealthy and people waste their money to buy alcohol, and drugs. That is not a good thing to do because it hurts people, and babies are also sometimes born with feter alcohol syndrome. A lot of people commit suicide, a lot of people kill, and there is a high death rate.

# data[].attributes.body
Pine ridge is a place that is special, but even though there is so negative statistics about this place, they all were at least given a piece of land by the US government, which in that case is a good thing for the LaKotas, so that they can maintain their culture, religion, and lifestyle.  But man, the statistics make me want to punch a wall because they are so negative and so unamusing.  I don like that people spend $80M JUST FOR ALCOHOL (well mostly alcohol). I am so triggered by the fact that they spend their money on something that is truly unneeded for their community.

1)I understand that Pine Ridge does not seem like a good place to live in, Also that people there drink tons of alchohol. Also I understand that Pine Ridge uses the 80 millon dollars they get for not good reasons.
2)How I feel about Pine Ridge is I don't really like it.It does not seem like a good place.

1. I understand that Pine Ridge is a place where there are alot of people who make alot of bad decitions like alchole, drugs, and gangs.

2. This makes me feel greatful for my life and family, since I was able to grow up in a great comunitty and live a healthy life.

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that pine ridge is a very underdeveloped reservation and takes advantage of the resources that they do get. I also am observing from the information I have been given that the reservation has a very recent history of having health issues.

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that Pine Ridge is a place that has a lot of alcohol and a lot of drug addicts. I think that it would be very sad to live in a place like Pine Ridge.

# data[].attributes.body
What I understand about pine ridge is that it's not the best place for anyone. Even the people who live there are in terrible condition with what's going on.

I really dislike how all of their money that the government gave them is being used on something as stupid as liquor. Also the fact that 70% of the people there drop out??? It's so stupid and horrible that, that much percent of people think that's the best thing to do. Pine Ridge isn't in any shape or form doing what's good for them

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that it may not be the safest place and that the people there take advantage of the land that has been set aside for them.

I feel that they should have that privilege taken away. They need to learn that they should not take it for granted. It should be taken away and once they learn, then maybe they can have Pine Ridge back. I feel bad for them, that the people who choose not to make decisions like this have to suffer at times.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I understand that people make poor choices about their health.
2. I dislike about what poor choice they did to themselves and affecting them everyday with your health. I also dislike how they are treating their health poorly which could affect the next generation.

# data[].attributes.body
1. I understand that Pine Ridge has major health issues with diabetes, addiction to drugs and addiction ti alcohol. All of this causes the death rate to be higher than the national average and that it also can cause fetal alcohol syndrome.

2. I feel that Pine Ridge officials should be banning alcohol and having a major punishment if anyone is caught with alcohol or drugs. I also don't like that they are using all of the money they recieve on alcohol; they should be using it to benefit their area and not on something that is causing them so much trouble.

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that Pine ridge is a very poor and bad place to live.

I feel happy that I don't have to experience what they have to go through but I also feel bad because we should be helping these people

# data[].attributes.body
What I understood about Pine Ridge was, that it had a lot of unemployed people and people drank a lot of beer. I feel disgusted,because all the adults and even kids are becoming alcoholics and young kids are getting beaten and killed it should be a better plac

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that pine Ridge is not doing so well that people are drinking lots and lots of beer that type of stuff and young kids are becoming gang members and killing people which then lots of babies are getting lost and there is not much income coming to families. I feel like this is sad and terrible how it has came to this because it is not right at all for this to happen and how many infants are dieing because the parents won't stop drinking which has made Pine Ridge a bad place and it just frustrates me that this has to happen to many inisint little childern to turn out this way.

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that it is and would be a dangerous and terrible place to live, the children being born alcoholics, the youth joining gangs, the suicide rate being much higher than it should ever be, the life expectancy being around 20-30 years shorter than the US average, 80% of people are unemployed, dropout rate is very high, and even with the $80 million they receive from the US government every year. I think that the Pine Ridge reservation is a disaster waiting to happen and that the Government should revoke the land until the adults of Pine Ridge can get it back together and make it a functional part of society.

# data[].attributes.body
1)It's not a place that is safe,helpful.It is very dangerous and even deathly.
2)I feel disgusted,kids should not have to start killing and drinking at the youngest age possible.People shouldn't have to worry about going out and having to behind them every second of everyday.As well as spending 80 million dollars on alcohol each year.

# data[].attributes.body
I understand that Pine Ridge is a place that most people even if they are under the correct age are drinking alcohol, doing drugs, and are participating in gang violence. I feel that Pine Ridge is a bad dangerous place, and needs harder enforced laws.
