Question and answer
In what way are problems and isuues expressed similarly ?
A problem is something in need of a solution. This could be a puzzle such as a mathematical question, or a difficulty where you need to decide what is the best action to take. [ [ An issue is a question for discussion - it's often expressed in a similar way to a problem (eg 'resolve the issue) but really an issue is something to be debated rather than necessarily solved ]

What are your thoughts on the cycle of violence and parenting styles which are later passed on to the next generation and so on ?
Weegy: I feel the only way that the cycle of violence in families can stop is through education. It used to be a taboo subject and families were of the opinion that what happens behind closed doors is nobody else's business. [ There is much more public awareness and I think children are more likely to speak up about it to other trusted adults. Parenting classes should also be available to anybody who feels they need them, and mandated for any parents who have neglected or abused a child. ] (More)

In what way do problems and issues "differ?"
Weegy: What strokes the most prominent difference between issue and problem is the solution. When you have an issue, you generally can readily come up with the solution. Often, you even know how you would solve an issue before it even presents itself. [ A problem, on the other hand, is not something that you can solve without forethought, and even a certain amount of guesswork. Size often dictates the difference between an issue and a problem. An issue is smaller, not life altering, and it doesn’t present such a degree of difficulty that you have to seek out the counsel of others in order to figure out the impact of the issue. A problem is larger in scale, often large enough to alter your life either temporarily or permanently. A problem can easily require the advice and guidance of those around you, in order to solve it. An issue is a factor that might cause you some annoyance. A problem can impact people and situations around you, even if they are not directly related to the problem. For instance, forgetting your lunch is an issue, but losing your job is a problem. On a corporate or governmental level, an issue is something that can be handled behind closed doors, impacting no one but the people of highest authority in the situation. A problem involves information that must be released, because there will be cause to involve employees, or citizens, in the solution to the problem. An issue also holds potential. When you discover that there is great potential for a situation to have a large impact, it is still, by definition, an issue. The issue mutates into a problem when the potential is realized. For instance, when a restaurant chef realizes that part of the batch of fish they are serving for the night has gone bad, they have an issue, because it holds the potential to make a lot of people sick, cause people to sue, and ruin the establishment’s reputation. If no one has eaten, or has had a bad reaction to the fish, then it remains an issue. ] (More)
