1.social problem/issue: Child Abuse
2. I choose an article from the LA times, "Boy's alleged abuse described in graphic grand jury testimony" by Soumya Karlamangla, Abby Sewell and Laura J. Nelson


               My social issue is child abuse, the reason why I choose to write about it is because children  should feel love not neglect, especially by their own family. If a child is giving signs, or you see signs that they might be getting abuse, speak up. In the article, it had mentioned that they saw some warning sighs of him being abuse, they had reported it, but there were no results, the child kept living with the mother. If higher authorities don't do much about this issue, you'll be finding more cases like this one, little boy dies from abuse, and no one did nothing  about it. I highly agree that children should be of high importance, more laws protecting their rights, no child should be going through  this.
