What class is this for? Or what kind of broader topic are you looking at?
@morganavery3 like someone said, something about pets (different breeds receiving different treatment - what are the actual stats regarding pit bull attacks vs other dog breeds etc), or the good old "should everyone be allowed to have children?" and look into what foster home looks like, adoption, poverty etc lots of material there and you can touch on safety of children in foster care or with abusive parents etc.
Children and pets being left in cars. What are the causes, are the parents/ owners going to prison, prevention, why do the numbers keep increasing.
