The comments should discuss one strength and one piece of advice for improvement. en-us 2021-03-25 05:32:26 UTC 2025-11-26 14:27:04 UTC hello@padlet.com A community without support is like a car with no engine, it won't go anywhere. Being around such negativity in the community traumatizes you, to a point where you don't feel safe. It’s hard to build healthy relationships because people look at you like an enemy. Without teamwork our community won’t get stronger or better, but if you do you're part you should be okay. If everyone in the community would work together on cleaning up, stop killing, or even just be nice. https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354170997 2021-03-25 17:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354170997 “Only 42% of people in rural areas wore a mask always or most of the time while close to people outside their household” (Key). Even though rural towns are fewer in number, they are still at risk and putting others at risk. Not wearing a mask in public can be a big issue since it can increase the amount of time we are in a quarantine state and it also increases the amount of people that are being exposed. Something we can do to spread awareness and influence others to wear a mask by listening to them on why they don’t wear one and try to change their decisions in a considerate way. 10040241 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354173777 2021-03-25 17:37:28 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354173777 How does social media affect mental health? Social media can make you think you need to look a certain way for people to like you, it can make you feel lonely, isolated, and can even cause depression. You have this feeling that you have to have the same opinion as everyone else because if you don’t then you immediately get hated on about everything. If these problems aren’t fixed the mental health of millions of people is just going to get worse. The solutions should be to change all of these standards, to spread awareness about what is happening. 10037311 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354174897 2021-03-25 17:37:42 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354174897 Should teachers be responsible for making the lives of their students less stressful? Students are under immense pressure and stress when having to deal with school and homework. Students have to deal with a lot such as school, homework, social life, home life, and work. At its worst all of these responsibilities turn into stress, that leads to kids being moody and affects them mentally and sometimes physically. Without helping kids deal with this stress it will cause them to hold it in and not express what they feel. Because So many Young kids are affected by stress, Teachers and parents should pay more attention to their kids and help them deal with it whether it be through giving less responsibilities or helping them express themselves. 10037291 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354181732 2021-03-25 17:38:55 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354181732 10051642 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354182796 About 33 % of people report feeling extreme stress and 73 % of people have stress that impacts them daily. Although it’s highly treatable, only 36.9% of people recieve treatment. Their mental health is more likely to suffer if this isn’t dealt with and can lead to depression or anxiety. Not only mental health but physical health can take a toll, such as increase in heart attack, strock, and hypertension. Because many health factors are a risk, it is essential to practice mindfulness, consider supplements, and get rid of anything that can keep causing stress.

I have and over something that wasn't even worth it. Lying to parents can cause not only arguments but also trust issues with each other. Arguments can lead to distancing yourself from your family which is something you don’t want. You want to always have trust with you and your parents because you should be able to tell them everything. Lying caused by conflicts with parents is a thing that happens sometimes but you just need to be reasonable with them and trust them. 1003986 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354189849 2021-03-25 17:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354189849 10010582 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354207347 Have you ever thought about the lifespan of our planet? Everyday, we live our lives, not knowing that we are speeding up the planet's aging process through environmental pollution.  The three common types of pollution are air pollution, water pollution, and land pollution. Overtime, simple acts like taking out the trash, driving to the store, or even maybe taking a seat by a fire, takes a toll on the Earth by slowly damaging our home day by day.  Since our planet already has to deal with our human being shenanigans, we should do what we can to help clean up and take better care of our planet.]]> 2021-03-25 17:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354207347 Can social media destroy your mental health and cause depression? Although many use social media as a platform to connect with others around the world, social media can be very dangerous to children and young teenagers. Social media is highly linked in increasing mental health problems which include anxiety and depression. All these countless hours that are spent on social media leads to addiction, comparing yourself to others, loss of sleep, and laziness. A good way to promote this world wide issue is getting this situation out there and having public speakers who have experienced the harm social media can do, speak out to children and young teenagers. 1003723 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354228015 2021-03-25 17:47:27 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354228015 Stress and anxiety are common experiences for most people. In fact, 70% of adults in the United States say they feel stress or anxiety daily (Healthline.com). Life is full of struggles, deadlines, and frustrations. For some people, stress is part of their life. Stress can be harmful or helpful. Stress can cause memory problems, aches and pains, and eating more or less. Stress can help motivate you to complete a task under pressure and meet the deadline. Although stress and anxiety may arise in your workplace and personal life, there are many simple ways to reduce the pressure you feel. 102304 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354238613 2021-03-25 17:49:24 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354238613 Due to the covid-19 outbreak students from many schools have been receiving failing grades. It is so bad that some students might not be able to graduate. Since distance learning started students have not been learning the same way as if they were in a classroom. Students are not logging in to their classes causing them to fall behind on their work. They also are not paying attention to the lesson and are getting low scores on tests. Some students just are lacking motivation and self discipline. School staff should come up with creative ideas to help motivate the students to do better in school. Students should also do their part to try to get their work done so that they can move onto the next grade level or graduate. 102375 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354258056 2021-03-25 17:53:03 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354258056 10031821 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354260596 "A bad relationship can do that, can make you doubt everything good you ever felt about yourself." - Husein Nishah. The quote shows an unhealthy relationship can bring people into a bad mindset. In the beginning, these relationships can happen at any time in the world. Next, having a long-exposure to the relationship can lead to mental or physical harm to the victim. This information can help people to avoid or fix this relationship for their health. Toxic relationships can leave the victims with low esteem, depression, or ignoring their personal needs. The way to help is to find support with others and don't allow the victims to become stuck in the past. ]]> 2021-03-25 17:53:33 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354260596 Has your child ever fallen asleep at a really weird time? Does it seem like their sleep schedule is really off? Well the problem might be that school is really stressful and they have to wake up early and start school work for a majority of the day. This tires out the students for the remainder of the day so they often mess up their sleep schedule. We should lessen the workload on students, so schools don’t put that much stress on students to do all of their work that is assigned for each class. This can also mentally drain kids because of the stress and overwhelming emotions some kids can experience from a lot of work or ruining their sleep schedule. Because schools are putting a ton of stress on kids mentally, they should avoid making students stress out about doing an excessive amount of school work when they get home or finish school.The schools should care more about how a lot of work can affect kids in different ways and how this can be detrimental to their sleep or mental health. 10053831 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354291053 2021-03-25 17:59:23 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354291053 Are you fat and living in the suburbs? Well, look at your sidewalks, that may be the issue… Well obviously it’s not that simple and there is more to it. The predatory land buying of big home builders like Lennar Corp suburbanites faces higher rates of obesity, pollution, and overall life inefficiency compared to cities and rural communities. With pollution, suburban homes are often built on carbon sponges like swamps, which is better for the environment than lawn. With sidewalks and obesity, have you ever noticed sidewalks getting thinner around the newer houses in town? This is to try and get more money from bigger and less efficient houses. Then the car situation, bigger homes allow for more cars which cause more pollution that is barely absorbed by the lawns. This is a horrible thing, millions of Americans are living in poorer conditions due to the greed of home construction companies, this should not be tolerated and the people should fight back. https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354403936 2021-03-25 18:21:35 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354403936 What were your memories of being a student? Did you remember the amount of fun you had , or did you recall the endless hours of work that you did over the weekend to get the one assignment in on time? Whether or not you have an answer to this isn't important. What's important is the realization of the amount of work students do in school. The amount of work given can even affect a students life in the long run. So here is a way that the education system and students can come together to interact in a healthier way. 10003272 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354804805 2021-03-25 19:56:42 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354804805 Around 50% of the population experiences mental illness in their lifetime. Despite its prevalence in our society, mental illness carries stigma. From the workplace to our own families, mental health is a topic many shy away from. Consequently, treatment is avoided for fear of appearing weak and vulnerable. This is not conducive to healthy individuals. Facing and dismantling these harmful stigmas is the only course of action to a healthier society. 10002662 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354806195 2021-03-25 19:57:06 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354806195 ¨Do not speak badly of yourself. For the Warrior within you hears your words and is lessened by them.¨ (David Gemmell) The words you intoxicate yourself to believe can affect your inner mentality and it will slowly start to break you down. Adolescence and young adults have to deal with the constant feeling of insecurity and maybe even embarrassment for certain aspects they roughly critique themselves on. Certain social media apps can greatly affect the way you see yourself from what is being spread throughout the media. These constant self put-downs can lead to anxiety, depression, and or social problems. Since this can ruin the confidence of these young adults and teens especially, they should spend less time on social media because it's unhealthy. 10002563 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354809730 2021-03-25 19:58:08 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354809730 10029134 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354810244 Is your relationship healthy?  If you said no, there are a few things that could lead you to a healthier relationship.  In a relationship communication and indepence should be a priority.  Communication allows you to speak on how you feel and independence allows you to have a life outside this relationship without losing yourself in it.  Because lack of communication causes a build up of hurt feelings, both partners should express their feelings thoroughly just like they should have their own time away from their relationship to build on other relationships.

Or have you ever wished your life was the exact same as someone on social media? Many people often feel like this. People feel the need to be as perfect as someone they see on social media. This need can be very harmful not only because it affects your self esteem, but in the process, you are neglecting your true values and beliefs. Due to the harmful causes of wanting to be like someone else, you should really take into consideration that your values are more important, and sometimes what you see on social media is not entirely true. 1001877 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354810379 2021-03-25 19:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354810379 “Sports were a big part of my life,and it truly shaped me and the values and morals I have from that,... It’s a good tribute to what I took away from high school sports.”(Brad Duke. Student athletes shouldn’t have to choose between if they want to play sports or not because of school work. Students should be able to balance school and sports appropriately. So, if there are sports at school, there should be a healthy balance of school work. 10047571 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354810725 2021-03-25 19:58:25 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354810725 Have you ever wondered the affects put upon adolescents due to mental illness? Today 1 in 5 young people suffer from mental illnesses, estimating that to be around 20% of our world population. These mental illnesses can cause a wide variety of emotional symptoms that negatively affect adolescents. Although these mental illnesses are a massive problem, only 4% of the total healthcare budget is offered and spent on our mental health. Parents and communities should come together to propose a higher spending budget for mental health, because afterall it may or may not save a kid's life. 10002112 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354811624 2021-03-25 19:58:41 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354811624 501387 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354812267 "A community that excludes even one member is no community at all." said by anonymous. This statement gives an understanding on how a community should not be. Communities are meant to bring people together in order to support and care for one another. However, some people are left out and left to face the traumatization of being alone. They're left alone because they don't "match" with others. This will cause them to feel little of themselves. Due to people being left out of their community, they feel oppressed and unequal, and other in this community should work to make those people feel accepted and equal. ]]> 2021-03-25 19:58:52 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354812267 If there is one thing that everyone universally experiences in life, it is stress. All of us have had a hard time dealing with stress in ways that almost always result in feeling stuck or helpless. If everyone in the world has trouble coping with stress, why hasn’t the problem been solved already? The truth is that fear and anxiety can occur as a result of pretty much anything. Every person is different, and situations that cause stress are very specific to who it is affecting. Unfortunately, most people are unaware of the correct way to cope with these emotions, and oftentimes end up developing unhealthy habits when it comes to dealing with stress. Because there is no medicine that completely eliminates stress, we should start teaching people how to cope with stress themselves starting from a young age. 1004747 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354812716 2021-03-25 19:58:59 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354812716 10002511 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354813307  Have your feelings ever been neglected or ignored by a loved one?  If so you know that its not a great feeling to project to children.  The neglection of children's emotions is a major problem which happens more than it should.  Making a child feel as if their feelings mean nothing has proven to cause mental exhaustion, and can make for an unhealthy family relationship.  As neglection continues there are ways parents are able to prevent the neglect.  Such as asking simple questions like how their day was, ask them how they feel about certain topics,  and make them know their voice matters.]]> 2021-03-25 19:59:10 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354813307 10048071 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354813999  Depression is overwhelming of emotions that certain people can’t personally handle. There are various reasons why people get depression some are more extreme than others, but it all depends on if the person can mentally handle their emotions alone.

Even if the parent decides to invalidate their child's issue, because the child is being “over dramatic,” it does more harm to the child than good. When a parent invalidates their child’s feelings or issues, it leads the child to feel as though their emotions are not important. Invalidation creates the child to be incapable of communicating healthy with others. Due to the invalidation leading to emotional baggage, parents should be aware and begin to listen and understand their child’s feelings.

This is called emotional invalidating and it is easily one of the most common ways that people can use to destroy their own self confidence. Emotional invalidating shows its true colors In many forms; blaming things on yourself, hiding emotions out of fear of being judged, minimizing your feelings and even minimizing your own emotions to care for someone else. Invalidation is one of the main sources of beginning BPD (borderline personality disorder) wether it is put on you by yourself or by someone else. Due to the fact that even this invalidation is downplayed, there is little to no cure for it, but, there a few things that can help with the chore of building your mind space into a safer place for emotions; validating and realizing every correct thing you do, celebrating the small things, knowing your place and not letting others opinions override your own, etc. 10048721 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354818082 2021-03-25 20:00:38 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354818082 10048201 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354821690 95% of male athletes along with 85% of female athletes have reported higher levels of stress; only 52% of non-athletes reported the same stress levels.

Often enough, students have to decide between having something that makes them happy, specifically sports, and school. As a society, we show students that it is normal to undergo extreme stress daily.

Anxiety and depression are common disorders that usually coexist, and we may not even notice it in people or in ourselves. People I know and even I personally suffer with anxiety and people need to know that there are ways to fix it or to cope with it. Anxiety is a serious disorder even though it isn’t taken seriously by many people. There are different pills and specialized therapy to deal with anxiety and the only way to know if it helps is to try it. Anxiety is a major problem that is largely overlooked by many people. 1004833 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1354886007

So why is it not mandatory that we learn about ways that we can manage that stress? It is inevitable and we're all going to eventually become stressed which might take a large toll on ourselves if we do not properly handle it. For this reason, Stress management should be offered as a class to students to learn new ways to cope with lingering troubles that may affect us mentally.

Students who get too much homework do not spend time with their family that often. Also, too much homework will cause a student to stress too much and could result badly.

This happens to me all the time. I for one am tired of having to go all the way to another city to go to a nice park, or to a bowling alley, or even an arcade. No one likes to sit at home and do nothing every day. Recreational activities allow us to get out of the house and do something fun. Waterford does not have very many things to do. We have some parks and childrens league sports, but there is so much more we could do if we put time and effort towards recreation. Problems start to surface with teenagers today if we start to get bored and run out of entertaining things to do. Having fun things to do and places to hang out are, although it doesn’t always seem like it, really important things to have. If the city of waterford were to put more funding and effort into our parks and recreational activities, it would make a large impact on the town as a whole. 10051531 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358359730 2021-03-26 17:57:11 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358359730 At least 56% of students have cited that the overload of homework is the cause of their stress.

However, after a long day of school students have to go home only to worry about loads of homework. Because teachers don’t know what is happening in people's lives, an overload of homework should not be assigned. 10003734 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358367346 2021-03-26 17:59:02 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358367346 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358369254 Many people feel the need to look skinny.

Couples in toxic relationships can be abusive, have poor communication, dishonesty, and be unfaithful. Being in toxic relationships can cause the faithful one to be hurt and cause issues for their future relationships with others. Since toxic relationships can cause trust issues, depression, abuse, etc.. you can avoid causing so much damage and pain to someone that was really caring for you by not being in any more relationships scarring them and causing the same bad toxic relationship experience for someone else. ]]> 2021-03-26 17:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358369512 “Nationwide, an estimated 7.7 million children ages 6 to 17 have at least one mental health disorder, or about 16.5 percent of school age kids, the study found” (Lisa Rapaport). This shows that even kids can have a mental illness and it could get worse if their parents choose to ignore it. Children with a mental illness often get told by their parents that nothing is wrong with them or they don’t believe that they could have a mental illness at their age. Due to their parents not believing them, children could become more distant and not open up to their problems to anyone that wants to help them. Without their parent’s help, they could grow up to have poor mental health. Because inconsiderate parents can give poor mental health to their kids, they should stop ignoring their kids' problems, and actually listen to them so they can help them get through their poor mental health. 10048391 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358369988 2021-03-26 17:59:42 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358369988 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1358371797 “Living in the world these days are really hard because people are no longer honest with each other, being dishonest always causes problems and can lead to getting offended”(unknown). This statement is a reminder of how lying to one another can cause bad trust issues and affect someone's thinking. Trust issues in a relationship can cause difficulties with your partner. It can lead to being overly protective and be on defense. This can lead to a toxic relationship or even your partner wanting to end things. Because trust issues in a relationship can lead to bad things, the person in a relationship with the trust issues should sit down with their significant other and express their feelings. They can also find a way to work things out and figure out why there's trust issues there.

Eating disorders affect 70 million individuals worldwide. An eating disorder is an illness that involves an unhealthy feeling about the food we eat. Eating disorders affect mostly women and teenage girls, but can indeed affect anyone. People that suffer from this usually see themselves as being fat, when in reality they aren’t. The media makes people think we need to have a certain type of body to be happy with ourselves or to be society’s standards.

When people don’t get the help they need they tend to spiral downward into a deep hole that can be extremely hard to get out of without any help. In the worst case scenario, this can lead to people considering suicide as the only way out, which is a big issue with people not getting any help. Because of how dangerous it can get for people if they don’t obtain any help, it should be a top priority to spread awareness on how people can help others with their mental health, plus on ways to make it more accessible to people.

Depression affects teens during part of the vital time in their growth when their self-esteem, body image, and emotions are so easily influenced by others and social media. Depression is also the main contributor to teen suicide. Parents, school faculty, and fellow teens have to help the teens that are suffering and show them that suicide is not the answer, even if it seems like the only one. There needs to be more education and awareness of depression and suicide as a leading cause.

Since they will be the ones to lead us into a time of happiness where we can spend all the time in the world with those we hold dear. During the time of this virus known as covid19 we are separated from those we care about most which causes a deep wound on our fellow man and to show that we have people who refuse to take the necessary precaution to do stuff like wear masks or keep your distancing to help keep the lives of others safe can hurt badly on top of the loneliness and or sadness you may already be feeling in the first place since we have an isolation order by scientists to government which can leave only a deeper gash onto the wound in the end and although we may not like having to stay inside it is the most necessary precaution of all. The conclusion we can make from this idea that loneliness is very prominent but needed during the time of covid19 is that to stop the loneliness we need to follow the orders of those who know more than us and listen to what they tell us when they say you need to wear a mask and stay six feet apart as it can increase the chance that our happy world can come back as beautiful as it can ever be and although that solution is unlikely nevertheless it is the truest one out there.

Maybe if school systems can have classes that teach students this they would be alot more prepared. https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1439813943 2021-04-20 20:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1439813943 https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1439827839 2021-04-20 20:06:32 UTC https://padlet.com/vros_murillo/eey4zzxjka23t4yd/wish/1439827839
