    Should birth control be sold over the counter?

    That is shocking that you have to go to those lengths to be able to get hold of something such as birth control. It does make you wonder if that is why there are so many unwanted pregnancies and also abortions as well, could have been avoided if they could have just purchased the birth control...

    Do you believe studying another language should be compulsory?

    I can agree with this. I feel that as long as you know your country's language and you are able to speak it and write in it fine without issue then that is all you need. In the case that someone may be looking for a job and it may be in another country with people who speak another language, I...

    Should schools have some kind of security?

    I agree. I feel there should be security but also that it should be something that is there to ensure the students that it is for their protection and not to watch them and judge them. Once they realize that the security is there to protect them and protect against any kind of severe violence...

    Should animal dissection be banned in schools?

    See that I can get behind and that is something I feel all schools should do so that the student has that option and choice if they would like to do it. Some schools however tend to push their students to partake in the dissection even if they do not want to and I feel that is wrong and that...

    Is abortion murder?

    Many will argue that it's not the case because they are not human yet, they are not something that is living. As someone who has had 4 children myself, I know that you can find the heartbeat of a baby from very early on in your pregnancy, I believe I was around 7 weeks when I had my first scan...

    Has social media made the internet more toxic?

    This is something I always used to let get to me years ago and it was more so when I used to spend a lot of time on Facebook. I used to see friends posting everything little good thing that happened in their lives but they never seemed to post anything about things in their life that were not...

    Should trans women be allowed to compete in female sports?

    This is a debate I have heard a lot and I can understand why there is different opinions on it and why many tend to sway towards the no, they should not be allowed. I myself believe that if you were once a man and you are now a woman, you should not be able to compete in women's sports. Even...

    Those who believe COVID is a conspiracy.

    I always remember during the pandemic and when the lockdowns were at their most strict, many people would be on the internet and questioning whether COVID was real or whether this was the government's way of controlling us and making us do what they wanted us to. Despite many deaths and people...

    Aliens

    I am undecided. I don't believe they exist but I also have seen things that point to it possibly being the case that they do exist. Without any real proof, it will be difficult to know for sure so I stay undecided at the moment.

    Was Moon Landing Fake?

    This has been a debate that has been going on for years and so far, there has not been any kind of solid proof that it was real or fake and we are not sure even if there is any. I personally believe it was genuine and will continue to believe that until proven otherwise if it was fake.

    What has changed with Marcus Rashford?

    My son is a Manchester United fan and he has been really happy with Marcus Rashford and his performance in matches. He has even said himself that he has seen a huge difference since Erik Ten Hag took over the team.

    What sports do you tend to watch without fail?

    Hockey does seem to be the most popular one in the US I have found :) I have watched it a few times when it has aired on channels over here in the UK but I don't tend to see it much anymore. My other half who I am in a long-distance relationship lives in the US and he watches it all the time...

    Who’s Running for President in 2024?

    It's not very promising, to be honest when you see who there is and who you know will end up running and who will be the ones that are up for the vote. It's a shame, to be honest not having much of a choice, especially after the stunts Trump has pulled in the past.

    The End of Joe Biden Has Arrived

    I feel at the moment, the US is in a bad position with two people who want to be at the top who clearly are not the greatest and no one else seems to be able to get a chance that may be better than both Trump and Biden. I am not in the US myself but I will admit, I wouldn't be happy with...

    Forest Fires

    This was a huge problem last year when we had severe heatwaves here in the UK and very little rain. The ground was so dry and the grass was super dry despite warnings about having disposable barbeques or throwing glass bottles on grass, some never listened and we saw people even lose their homes...

    Opinions on US debt

    This seems to be classic giving out money even to those who do not deserve or do anything to warrant being given it and yet they still do it even though they are in debt and shouldn't be. I really hope something is done soon as it's not looking good at the moment.

    Do you wish you/your kids could visit more attractions?

    I have always said, even before the cost of living rose as it has that I would love to be able to either take my kids or for them to be able to go to more attractions. Where I live there is pretty much nothing now and if there is, it is way too expensive to even consider. We once had a theme...

    Woman survives on wine during five days stranded in Australian bush

    Oh wow! That is crazy! I am so glad that she survived and was able to even if it was just on wine and sweets. I can't imagine she would have felt great after being rescued and drinking and eating only that but the main thing is she survived.

    Conflicts Vs. War

    When it comes to hearing about a conflict, I would say that is something that is small and usually resolved quite quickly without causing any serious issues or harm to anyone or anything. A war is completely different, is huge, lasts longer, causes death and destruction, and is never resolved...

    Former Pakistan PM Imran Khan arrested

    It's not too often you see someone part of politics and part of a government get caught and arrested but it is about time it started to happen to be honest. There is way too much corruption in politics everywhere and more needs to be done about it.
