This article was about a suicide car bomber that caused the death of at least 15 people and injured 53 people.

I think this is the struggle of the people. If the government gave them what they needed then they wouldn't have a revolt or do things like this. Plus the government s also doing things like this so how can they not expect something back. It's just a struggle to agree. Which is indeed a common struggle but people are taking it to the extremes. They should all leave the fighting to kids because they're supposed to be acting like adults.

Who are we?
This is an article focused on how teenagers try to find out who they really in are during the transition from childhood to adulthood.
http://articles.familylobby.com/355-teenagers-and-the-struggle-for-identity.htm
Some of you may think that this is another article about adults "trying" to understand kids, but this article is extremely accurate. It connects tome like no article has before. We do worry about everything at this age. Even if that one kid acts cool and chill about everything, they're really worried about their appearance and what they say or do. I know that's how I am. And there's nothing wrong with that. It's a stage we pass through. When i read this I remember all those people who constantly check themselves out. It's not because they're conceited, it's just that they're really insecure. (Except those fb girls, they're just conceited.) This article is the struggle for teens to find out who they really are. It's a struggle that we all overcome at some point, but for now, we all must face it together.

Kill,----,Marry.
This is an article about girls that have two choices. Marry or die.
http://news.yahoo.com/half-girls-south-sudan-forced-marry-140334618.html
Most of us have this beautiful vision of our future. Marry our perfect match and have a great family. Some girls don't get the chance to live like that or imagine living like that. In Sudan, girls are forced to marry men that could be 50 years older than them just because their family wants some money.When the girls refuse, the parents simply beat them, sometimes to death. Who knows how many girls face this struggle because I doubt that this only happens in South Sudan. These parents have no heart.

Save Money, Live Better.
This is an article about a military family of four who can live well of off just $14,000 a year.
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/military-family-manages-scrape-14-001249660.html;_ylt=A2KJ2PZa8TNR0UcAnTzQtDMD
Okay, so I'm going to be seeing this article with a different perspective. The article itself didn't contain much of a struggle. The article gave a brief summary of how Danielle Wagasky and her family have lived the last four years of their life. You see, her husband was in the military and thanks to the GI bill, they are given $14,000 a year. In 2008, after her husband was deployed, and after she started getting behind on the bills, she knew that something had to change. Her husband told her about a book and after reading it she changed a lot of things. Her kids are home schooled,go to the grocery store once a month, switched cable for Netflix and hulu, and she learned to cook so they wouldn't go out much. Overall they say that they live a happy life and don't feel like they're missing out on much. But, would you be able to do that? wave good bye to McDonald's every time you see it? i know for sure it'd be a struggle for me. It's got to be a struggle for them sometimes too. It's not easy to have a budget, just ask Justin Bieber who pays $750 for a haircut. This my friends, is the struggle of not knowing when or how to save money and thinking that it isn't possible. Danielle Wagasky does what most of us don't have the will to do.

A child's struggle inspires drive for cure
This article is about a little girl, named Rafi, who has a rare disease called epidermolysis bullosa. This is a disease in which skin blisters develop in response to a minor injury.
http://www.cnn.com/2013/02/23/health/rafis-run/index.html
Guys, this was so sad and I just needed to say that. This article has four struggles from which I could tell. The first one is trying to find a cure for this disease. We all know how hard it is to find cures but we also now that nothing is impossible. It's a struggle, but we always get through it because these amazing people are trying to give it there all for people like Rafi. Dedicating themselves to their research. The second struggle that i noticed was the the struggle to fund the search for a cure. in the article it mentioned that people from Rafi's neighborhood started Rafi's Run. All of the money that they make goes to research to finding a cure. Last year they earned $200,000! The third struggle is the struggle that Rafi's parents face everyday. It must hurt so much for them to see their daughter like that. But they never give up. They didn't take the easy way out like other people do. The final struggle, is faced by Rafi. The pain that she goes through everyday is more than most of will ever be able to take. After reading this article I found a new person to admire. Rafi is someone that we should all admire.
