Ideas for Fanfiction topics?

So I have taken to writing topics on my fanfiction account that are somewhat hard to write/talk about.

For example, I have done…

* Stillborn birth
* Shaken Baby Syndrome
* Kidnapping (child's body is found)
   * Alternate ending, child is found alive

These are both one-shots, and small stories of about 5 chapters. I have also done Domestic Violence, and child abuse (physical and sexual, separately). But these are both multi-chapter stories.

I am looking for more ideas that could be finished in 7 or less chapters. Things mostly like SBS or stillbirth, a topic that's hard to talk about that I could bring awareness to.
Any ideas are appreciated! Thank you. :)

I write for Pretty Little Liars (where the first 3 topics take place), but I also write for Glee & Criminal Minds, if that helps in any way.

Marli - I tried replying directly but it won't let me.

Thank you for the suggestions. I am not sure why it is always kids being hurt that I write about. I guess it's just what I'm good at? But I do enjoy researching and learning something new each time.

My stories always end with people arrested & going to prison. I also really enjoy raising awareness for things like Shaken Baby Syndrome, etc.

Your suggestions are very interesting. I will give them a go! Thank you. :)

Is there a reason why your previous topics were about harming children? The stillbirths are not criminal acts. Babies do die in the womb and miscarriages are not abortions which are not criminal acts in some countries. 

Since you stress the deaths of children, what about umbilical cord accidents ("cord death" from strangulation or from being pressed against the birth canal by the baby's head as it decends the birth canal, or the brain not getting enough oxygen from the umbilical cord and cells dying and nerve damage)

Other topics would not involve the deaths of children. You could do gender or cross- or transgender issues.
