Picture this, an 8 year old  wants to play with other classmates on the playground. Going there expecting a good time, she gets bombarded with horrible comments about her body. From an all too early age, this eight year old girl withdraws entirely from trying to play on the playground. She’s anxious for recess time, a time when all kids should be excited: she is in fear. She questions her body and begins to believe those cruel words. This is a true story, though it does not stand alone, everyday people experience instances of bullying that change their lives and how they look at themselves forever.  In fact, 49% of children in grades four to 12 have been bullied by other students at school level at least once. My overall message is stop bullying no one deserve to feel worthless.

He threatened to share a picture she didn’t want anyone to see. Filled with panic, she didn’t know what to do. The photo was released to her school, her friends. She was forced to switch schools, only to get caught into drama. She was outnumbered. Insults were shouted and punches were thrown. She was forced to move again. People said mean things at school. People said mean things online. She felt hopeless. She felt alone. Everywhere she went, he was always able to find her through social media. She could not escape. October 12, 2012, about 6:00 p.m, she was found dead in her home. Those acts of bullying caused Amanda Todd to take her own life at the age of 15.

The effects of stigma on mental illness and disabilities

Imagine you are a person who requires a wheelchair as transportation and everyone looks at you differently for it. Imagine being underestimated constantly because of the way you look or accommodations you may need. You reach for something on the shelf, knowing you have the power to get it, but someone assumes you are helpless and reaches above you to grab the item you want. These are the perceptions placed on handicap-able people each day; These are stigmas. Stigma is a mark of disgrace associated with a particular circumstance, quality, or person. 61 million adults in the United States live with a disability (https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/disabilityandhealth/infographic-disability-impacts-all.html#:~:text=61%20million%20adults%20in%20the,is%20highest%20in%20the%20South.) and nearly half of Americans have a mental illness at some point in their lives¨ (https://div12.org/what-makes-mental-illness-stigma-so-hard-to-change-and-also-to-study/.) Why is there so much stigma surrounding disability and mental illness?

How does that stigma affect a person’s life?  What can we do to help stop stigma?  Why can’t individuals be more sensitive to difference? ¨Stigma and discrimination can make someone’s mental health problems worse, and delay or stop them getting help. Social isolation, poor housing, unemployment and poverty are all linked to mental ill health. So stigma and discrimination can trap people in a cycle of illness.¨ it explains the problem and states why it matters. (https://www.mentalhealth.org.uk/a-to-z/s/stigma-and-discrimination)

Covid-19 Skyrocketing all over the United Kingdom!

# data[].attributes.body
Britain is troubled with Covid-19, Cases popping up left right and center, serious quarantining, and anti vaccinations fight back. Let's talk about covid but covid in somewhere that's not the United States, we're talking about the United kingdom. A place full of kings and queens… and covid.

The United Kingdom or Britain  is number five on the list of countries with the most covid cases, with a whopping 66,634 cases and 72,458 weekly from our latest February 8th of 2022. Anti-Vaccinators protest against the vaccine “it contains tiny robots that control your brain” , says one of the anti-vaccinators. We decided to check what the public thought of the vaccine. We had Ms. Shannon Colonna with us to explain her opinion on the Vaccine “I already have the vaccine and I’m boosted. I would definitely recommend getting the vaccine. People don’t want to get the vaccine because they don’t know what's entering their bodies.” The UK is hating this shutdown. It's starting to come if you can’t beat them, join them.

On January 4, 2022, mass shutdowns occurred all over the United Kingdom due to high rise of the Covid-19 variant “Omicron”. After getting hit hard when Covid first started back in March 2020 in the Uk, the Covid-19 variant, Omicron, has hit the country harder. The UK has had over 14,732,594 reported cases and over 150,609 deaths. This month of January 2022 has the United Kingdom in panic with how many cases there are. Each day sources say there are 155,868 cases. Britain's Pfizer CEO gave instructions to all of the UK on how to stay safe, “If we want to get rid of Covid-19 you have to get both vaccinations, the booster, the antibodies, and keep your mask on over your nose”. With these Levels of Covid-19 Cases in the UK it puts a big Danger sign  on the Country, do NOT travel to the UK right now. Less Exposure means less cases.

Many people discard the Vaccine due to problems That they had. One person said “the Second vaccine is what's killing people these days and that's why we don’t need it” CDC doesn't know what to say. As the UK goes more into ruin with this, its mainly Anti Vaccinators that are in trouble and are the main ones spreading covid everywhere. Some say that the UK isn't the best place to live. As studies have shown Covid is spread through contact, like breathing, coughing, or sneezing.

As numbers rise people are confused about what to do next. With Anti Vaccers and covid cases running rampant. The UK is forced to go into another shutdown and they're forced to go into another shut down till further notice. If people don't get vaccinated then covid will continue on. it's starting to come to the point where if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.

As stated earlier The UK’s Pfizer CEO says “If we want to get rid of Covid-19 you have to get both vaccinations, the booster, the antibodies, and keep your mask on over your nose.” WHO (World Health Organization) is also trying to help the situation along. As we know now, Covid is getting higher and higher in that country. Beyond the availability of vaccinations, organizations also offer aid to those struggling due to Covid. For example, Covid:Aid, CAF, NCVO, Mind: Home, ext.

It keeps Jared from doing the things he loves and enjoys. Central Middle School student Jared Bogart exclaimed he gets 3-4 pieces of homework every day. Students are getting around 1-3 hours of homework every school day. That is after 6-7 hours of school. Students have to complete their homework on a daily basis or their grades will drop by a ton and they will not be able to get into college after that. Many students including Jared want to follow their dreams but instead, homework makes them complete tasks for a grade in which they need to get to college. Many students want to go to college because then they can’t get many jobs and the dream is lost. But homework can also be good. Constant repetitive work on a subject can help you. It increases your knowledge of the subject and you can perform well in that subject. We all have heard the term “Practice makes Perfect"
