AOW Impressions 3/6

During the gallery walk on Friday, I saw many interesting articles. Athziry's interested me the most; talking about the use of social media and suicide. I never thought about teenagers posting their suicide note online for the world to see. I also never thought about the impact that could have on the viewers. Apparently, teenagers see other teenagers suicide note online, and some will eventually end up committing suicide. My personal thoughts on the topic are pretty much why. Why do teenagers post their suicide note online? Most importantly, why do the kids who see the suicide notes online feel they need to commit suicide?

Another major topic that many people picked was about ISIS. Gianna's article was talking about how ISIS released 19 Christian hostages. They did this because they follow the Sharia laws. In other words, believe it or not, they follow a certain moral code. Bela's article discussed how teenage girls think they will have a better live with ISIS. They cross the border and join the terrorist group, no one has been able to contact them since. Citalli's article also talked about teenagers joining ISIS, this time they are from Scotland. An ISIS teenager is recruiting teenagers from Scotland. I don't know what's going on in these teenagers mind; joining ISIS and killing people. How can these teenager, who could of have a good life, just get up one morning and decide to join ISIS? Do they think it's cool? Do they think that they are making the right decision?
