My assignment is to write a paper on a current phenomenon. Basically explaining in a cause and effect manner why something has recently increased or decreased...For example...Why have divorces increased? or Why have gas prices decreased?
I have to find three newspaper articles that give their thoughts on the current trends and their idea of the causes/effects. I just need an idea for the paper....Thank you guys so much!

The first thing that comes to mind is : KINDNESS.
Seems kindness has turned into a phenomenon on our planet. Or should I say lack of it!! It is a rare event and quite amazing when it actually does happen. Of course in a small town there is way more of it than in any city over 10,000 but it seems to be on the downside worldwide.
Kindness is a phenomenon that is unique due to the fact that it could be changed by US. Everyone has the capabilities to change this into a positive phenomenon rather than a negative one, but people make excuses and even come up with ideas on how NOT be kind. How sad !

How about:
Why are immagrants flooding over our borders in record numbers? Give the cause and effect. They come for money, freedom and a better life. The effect is that they are taking our resources, benefits, and overpopulating the US.
Right now there are many articles on this subject especially since Pres. Bush signed the law to start building a fence between Mexcio and the US. Our Goverment talks about the problem all the time and so do the politicians. You should find lots of info.

There is no short cut to real research. I fear that it's going to be completely lost in two generations. All that aside....I have one phenomenon that I'd like you to research:
Why do kids read less now? Why are kids experiencing more problems with obesity?
I hope that you uncover something that really interests you.....and that writing about it can be a joy.
