Best/Worst Post: Last One!

Best:

The Best Post that I found this week was found while doing some daily scrolling through Facebook. I thought this post was quite important, and super cool. Being an avid baseball fan, and a Colorado Rockies fan at that, I felt this post from their Facebook page reached me; and I felt that I spoke to me even more because I too have several allergies. Having allergies, especially severe ones, can be a really hard thing to live with. I know this because I’ve always had to keep a guard up with what I consume.

Having a select day throughout the season for people with peanut allergies to come and enjoy a game without any worries is a fantastic idea! I think this is great because I work with kids everyday, and a fair majority of them seem to have some type of allergy. And it breaks my heart when I see the guardians/parents of those kids tell them that they cannot attend class or go somewhere, or do something because of their said allergy. It’s like watching the light from their eyes instantly go dim, and their joy fades. So although Coors Field is having a set day for a sectioned off area for people with peanut allergies, this doesn’t mean that they couldn’t possibly set other days for people with other allergies. I feel like this can be a large movement. According to HealthLine, after a study was conducted on 80,000 children, research shows that American born children are more perceptible to having asthma and/or food allergies, when compared to foreign-born American children. But, after a decade of living in the U.S. these foreign-born children can develop these abnormalities.  

This plays into social media because without the Rockies advertisement media marketing team, hardly anyone would know about this awesome event. There are other ways for people to get information similar to this. I know of an amazing website that allows people to search their area code and input the types of food allergies they have, and a list of restaurants that are allergy friendly in the area display on the page.

Worst:

The Worst Post I found for this week was ironically found on the same day as my Best Post. I am sure many of us have seen the horrific videos from the marine life conservation organizations (?) that go around lakes and seas, saving animals that are, or have been injured. I remember when this video first came out; I couldn’t stand to watch it only for a couple seconds. Seeing the turtle bleed and cry made me hurt and feel so many different emotions. I honestly couldn’t imagine having something stuck in my nose, let alone a fork or straw, be left in there for God knows how long, and then a stranger comes to save me? It is just to much, especially if you love animals.

I feel this plays well into social media because, how many people actually know where their trash ends up after it is tossed? One? Two? A few? This puts things into a bigger and larger picture because, although the trash may be out of our lives, it can still affect others. According to CNN in 2015, on average per year, a minimum of 5.25 trillion floating pieces of plastic materials, weighing in at about 268,940 tons are in the ocean. That is crazy! And the crazier part about it is that this was only the estimated surface plastic, not the material that has sunk. More research from the page states that plastic has only been around for about 100 years now, and some of it still hasn’t deteriorated. They are suggesting it can take anywhere from 100 to 1000 years before it could possible start to diminish. Also, all of the plastic that has ever been made, still exists, it may just exist in a different form such as recyclables.

Worst Post Week 6

I found this post when browsing through Facebook. I chose this as my Worst Post for week 6 because when I first saw it at glance, it immediately made my heart heavy. And at the end of it, I was left angry and speechless.

For starters, ladies, if you happen to discover/know that you are pregnant, get any, and as much help that you think you may need! This could cover a variety of topics ranging from clothes, to food, to mental help. Seriously, get help for anything; the health of your unborn child is super important!

As shown in the video, just in the last 10 years, over 130,000 babies have been born addicted to drugs. That is CRAZY! I know for a fact that even on T.V., different medication commercials state, and have fine print saying, “Should not consume while pregnant,” doesn’t that mean anything?! If it is not okay to take sleeping medication, drink, or even smoke while pregnant, do people seriously think it is okay to take opioids?.. 

The video its self seems similar to a documentary or T.V. show, if that is the case, why is it not broadcasted more, or has similar stories relevant to the topic that can air? Almost 4 million babies are born in one year, and that is just in the United States. Could you imagine how many in the world? That number is 130 million babies! I feel people should be more aware of the side effects that can happen to their child if they don’t follow instructions or directions from a doctor.
