health issues today
What’s a current health issue people face today?

I have to do a presentation on a current health issue or problems youth are facing today, but i want to stay away from the typical teen pregnancy, drug use, obesity, Basically stuff along the lines that everyone pretty much knows about. I want to open their eyes to a less known issue. Any ideas?

meningitis maybe? it can be fatal, and it can be spread through kissing, sharing a water bottle, and countless other everyday occurrences. Perhaps do a bit of research to learn more.

Mental instability is also on the rise among youth, which can result in cutting and suicides. Depression and mental issues most certainly count as a health issue. your report could focus on the causes of teen stress and instability, as well as possible coping mechanisms. In my area, there has been a string of teen suicides, and an equal number of mourning parents urging teens to get help. The pain that these suicides cause families is unprecedented, so you could also talk about how these occurrences negatively effect love ones, and urge your peers to understand high school isn’t the end all and be all, and that nothing is as bad as it seems.

No matter what you choose, good luck, and kudos for looking for an original topic!
