SCS - Scared Cat Syndrome

         Decisions are like cookies to me, I can't make them, but when someone else does.... they are delicious. Okay, maybe that wasn't the best analogy. Point is I can't make decisions; they terrify me. What if I make the wrong one? What if I make one and then I look back and see the other one and it is way more fun?
         That's how I feel about this research paper. I don't know what to write about, but if someone just told me I'm sure it would be great. However, I took a whack at it.
        I have decided on topic #2. So, after looking at the charts we made, two of my biggest interests are the way people think/current trends (psychology and physical) and children. Kind of weird now that I just wrote it out. But here is how I see it... I could either talk about how the influence of current "trends" or what people classify as cool influences the attendance of youth at church, or I could either talk about how parents raise their children "now" influences the attendance of youth at church.
         I feel like there are lots of ways I could go about familiarizing myself with the topic. Interviews especially, I think would be a great way to go about this. I'm not so sure how BYU students would do for this, but I think I could find quite a few other people I could talk to. I also have some personal stories that I could draw on.... definitely just a starting point, but we shall see!
