Premarital sex among those living together in a cohabitation has long been a moral concern that many parents and religious people have minded themselves with.

The general subject described above ...

Literature review summary Summarizing the relevant research related to the interconnection between eating disorders and parenting styles, the authors point to the general scientific interest for connections between types of parent-child bonds and overall psychological and mental implications for the child. The authors state that the existing research on long-term psychological implications of parental bonding style is predominantly retrospective, while the body of research shows the connection between overprotective parenting (especially from mothers) with eating disorders and particularly anorexia, bulimia and drive for thinness (Lobera et al., 2011, p. 729).

The most significant cultural result of the War of 1812 today is the American attitude regarding the military for purposes of economic and national security. Previously, the Americans had been distrustful of a strong military believing that it would be subversive towards the republican institutions. However, the1812 War called for the re-evaluation of the republican tenets as the conflict became a revelation that a formidable force was the precursor for the common prosperity (Hickey, 2012). Following the War, the primary duty of the subsequent regimes gradually became the need to place the safety of the nation by adopting an ...

<Institution> As people grow from infancy to adulthood, they take on different roles in order to perform specific tasks that would enable them to become better suited to the environment or the society to which they belong. Due to the ever changing nature of human existence influenced by the environment and technological development, these different roles that people take also changes along the passing of generations. During middle adulthood, many people take the role of a romantic partner or a spouse. When a child is conceived and born, these people become parents during middle adulthood. In the past, ...

For the millennial female workers of today, some employees already have a solution to free them of their worries regarding their biological clock – making egg freezing part of their health care package. Egg freezing is defined as a “method used to preserve reproductive potential in women,” which is also called mature oocyte cryopreservation (Mayo Clinic Staff, 2016). Through this technology, women who intend to delay pregnancy for whatever personal reason can do so. In 2014, Apple and Facebook were two of the companies who announced that they would include egg freezing in their surrogacy benefits. It was ...

One cultural effect of the War of 1812 was that the fact that the United States had remained unscathed with its boundaries intact. This led to a focus on nationalism, and on the expansion of the country westward. A new economic agenda for the young nation was then created, which concentrated on creating market economies in industrial locations, thus allowing for economic growth for many citizens. There was the so-called “Era of Good Feelings” that evolved, providing for the ultimate unification of the country and impetus for its expansion and growth (Berkin, et al, 2014).

Republican Motherhood

The term Republican Motherhood ...

Motherhood is a sacred act for each woman. It is the most powerful and spiritual component of a woman’s life. Published in 1987, “Beloved” by Toni Morrison depicts heart-wrenching lives of African slaves and explores the mother-child relationship and the experience of black women in an unjust and prejudiced society. “Beloved” was based on the real story of a slave woman called Margaret Garner who killed her own child. This masterpiece emphasizes the barbaric and cruel effects of slavery and oppression of black women in the circumstances of racial inequality and abusive behaviors. They were not allowed to ...

Introduction

The World Economic Forum stated that the gender pay gap may take 118 years to close. The gender pay gap is the average disparity in men and women’s total hourly wages earned, which can be attributed to different factors such as level of education, expertise, type of industry and length of work among others (Grimley, n.p). Statistics showed that despite the increased participation of women in the labor force, their salary remains to be significantly lower than that of men, even in highly industrialized countries. The existence of a wide gap between men and women’s average earnings ...

People can be blind to love, truth, or reality in general. The reason can be strong emotions or an intention to escape a traumatizing situation. At the same time, the outcomes of such blindness are usually tragic. Euripides was a master of creating dramatic plays that encapsulated the strongest emotions of a person by engaging them into the traumatizing actions and experiences. Particularly, the topic of blindness is particularly vividly represented in Euripides’s “Medea” (Euripides 17). She is overwhelmed with her frustration and anger on Jason’s betrayal and humiliation. In the swirl of a blind rage Medea ...

Kate Chopin’s late 19th-century novel The Awakening, and its protagonist Edna Pontellier, demonstrates a protagonist with a complex and layered inner life, pioneering the extent to which female lead characters in American fiction could be displayed. Throughout the novel, her sense of self as it is positioned within the societal expectations of wifehood and motherhood in the late 1800s is continually challenged, as she must weigh the pressures placed on her by her husband and community against her own individual wants and needs. In this respect, feminism and marriage play a significant role in Edna’s growth and ...

The small island nation of Cuba has been the site of socialist revolution for the second half of the 20th century. The revolution aimed at granting equal access to nation’s resources to all its people and ambitiously marched to produce a just society free from class, race and gender differences. Its alliance with the communist super power of Soviet Union was not appreciated by its immediate neighbor and Soviet’s rival, the capitalist super power of United States. US reacted by placing a trade embargo on Cuba, a policy which severely affected its market prospects. As a result ...

For a long time the ideal family resembled something out of “Leave it to Beaver”. The mother was in the home, baking homemade goodies and awaiting the father’s return from a hard day. Women were expected to reproduce. Children played outside, and never dared question their parents. If an accidental pregnancy happened outside of wedlock the girl was sent away to have it, or she and the father were forced to marry. Teenaged girls were more likely to get pregnant, despite the stigma that would be placed upon her. This is a far cry from the modern family, ...

Beyond doubt, D.W. Griffith is one of the stalwarts in the domain of cinema who has left an immortal mark in the minds of the film critics and the audience with his seminal works of art that have been deemed to be among the best the medium of art has ever seen.

A close scrutiny of the films like The Birth of a Nation (1915) and Intolerance (1916) would enable ...

Introduction

Perinatal depression is increasingly becoming a worldwide mental illness that affects expectant mothers. Although depression has always been categorized by world Health Organization (WHO) as a silent killer disease, perinatal depression continue to attract more attention due to its adverse effect on an entire family support system.

[I was sitting alone on that bench along the streetside café..staring at the setting sun and thinking about my recent failure of giving up on the most desired jobit seemed like the end of my world.]

Dejected and crestfallen I was sitting alone on the bench,

It really seemed like the end of my world, with no aspiration left. I had no hopes of sustaining in this world, I had no dream to fight for,

Maybe I lost it all, My destiny deprived me of it all by staging the perfect theft.

A loud thud behind me dragged me back to the real world, Saw people running, They all ran to a spot where a girl was lying bathed in blood, most of her parts ...

Needless to say, the 21st century provides a challenging situation for working mothers. Women who choose to develop and pursue careers while establishing families with children often find themselves in over their heads. These women are forced to keep up with their professional lives in addition to keeping up with maternal duties that have been set well in advance of the current era. Therefore, the rules that the women of the modern era follow are ones set up by those women who were strictly focused on being a homemaker and mother. Fulfilling the role of one’s career in ...

Conventional wisdom categorically illustrates how women are more inclined to their motherly instincts more than they are to other things, and that perhaps explains the reason the educated woman of the 21st century would rather leave a promising and high paying job to stay at home and take care of her children. According to Anne- Marie Slaughter, the cliché “a woman can have it all” raises more questions than answers in as far as women finding a balance between a career and motherhood is concerned. Nanette Fondas echoes this very sentiment when she says that many women who are ...

The American Revolution was a political uprising that occurred between 1765 and 1783 during which the colonists in the 13 American colonies rejected British governance, and overthrew the Great Britain authority thus founding the United States of America. During this period, women stepped up their roles in assuming responsibilities, some of which were deemed as masculine in nature. Those women that chose to become involved in politics via boycotts became known as the Daughters of Liberty. Some women became camp followers, not wanting to be separated from their husbands, fathers and other loved ones. Those that were closest to ...

The American Revolutionary War implied global changes to the political, economic and social course of the whole nation. As the republic started its development within the concepts of liberation, the new ideology had a certain impact on the role of women in the society. During the years of Revolutionary War women were to get involved into earlier unprecedented activities, as someone needed maintain the farms while men were at war. These circumstances had given de facto opportunities to women, which were eventually declined just as soon the Revolution was over (Mays, 2004). The end of the American Revolution had ...

Abstract

Society would like us to see young parents living in squalid environments with children who are dressed in common “criminal attire” and packing firearms. Observations proffer that children from families where the parents started raising their family during their juvenile years have a higher propensity to commit crime compared to children born into families where the parents have already reached adulthood or are more prepared. In this light, the debate centers on the age of the parents as the main factor in having children prone to criminal actions. In this light, the statement would be interpreted that if ...

It is not a surprise that the older women are more likely to deliver twins, especially if it is the first time they get pregnant. The scientists have worked on discovering this mystery and have finally found the reasons for this phenomenon. Firstly, after the age of 35, the brain starts to produce follicle-stimulating and luteinizing hormones which make ovaries produce more than one egg one ovulation eggs. The second reason is the medical treatment or even in vitro fertilization and intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection that women diagnosed with unexplained fertility undergo (Jick). The older women are also more prone ...

Teenage pregnancies are one of the worst nightmares that parents with daughters dread most. While motherhood should be considered a blessing, teenagers are not ready and prepared to form families. The United States has one of the highest numbers of documented cases of teenage pregnancies compared to the rest of the world. Every year, an estimated 750,000 teenagers become pregnant around the United States with majority of them resulting in live births. Patel PH, Sen B (2006) found that teenage births increased between 2005 and 2006 from 40.5 t0 41.9 per 1000 births. Teenage pregnancies have a lot ...

Gender is defined as the activities, roles and behavior assigned in a social place with reference to women and men. Though it is normally confused with sex, it is not. Sex is the biological issue of whether a person is male or female. Gender on the other hand is the society’s code of behavior as to how a man or woman is supposed to behave and act. These distinct given roles are what give rise to inequalities. This difference is that which gives systematical favor to one group and disfavors another. This may occur in terms of health services, job opportunities, ...

The setting is very important in any work of fiction. Often, the setting in the work of fiction carries a symbolic meaning that helps underscore the central theme of the work of fiction. In light of this, this paper will consider the symbolic function that the settings in A Worn Path and I Stand Here Ironing by Eudora Welty and Tillie Olsen respectively. The central theme in Eudora’s A Worn Path is the triumph of human love. This is seen through the protagonist who endures everything to make a journey inspired by the love for her grandson.

In an ideal world, all workplaces would be free from discrimination and unfairness. However, because the workplace is run by human beings, each person brings his or her own ideas and opinions into the workplace. This is compounded by the fact that most companies have a hierarchical structure, and some people are necessarily put in charge of others; when these people do not have a good sense of what is equitable and fair insofar as management behavior is concerned in a company, issues can occur in the workplace.

Favoritism is one of the biggest problems that an employee can face in the ...

Introduction

Teenage pregnancy in modern societies is being viewed as a dysfunctional. Historically, across cultures it was discovered to be functional since teenage couples were encouraged to begin raising a family very early. With contemporary educational trends this value of childbirth at a very early age has been replaced by getting into college, having a degree and then thinking about childbirth in one’s late twenties; thirties or even forties. This research project hopes to explore how appropriate this perception of when pregnancy should occur and the damnation cast on teenage pregnancy in our modern world. It is also the author’s intention to ...

Following the American Psychological Association’s Guidelines

Review: The Prices of Motherhood Today the shelves of bookstores appear to be littered with propaganda either glorifying or demoralizing the job of being a mother. It has become less of a true stance in the world, and more of a political debate, standing alongside people who disagree on smoking in public, or abortion. We no longer argue the real issues when it comes to motherhood, but simply pass off whether or not motherhood is “hard” or “worth it” in terms of our own lives. We generalize the rest of the population’s stance based on our own views in terms ...

Pay discrimination occurs when people with the same qualification and experience have different pay levels. The most relevant pay discrimination we see today is what we call the gender pay gap or the pay discrimination between men and women. There is a misapprehension that the gender pay gap is closing fast. The 2003-2013 pay gap rate only proves that this issue would not end in another 124 years. In 2012, female workers made only 77 cents for every dollar their male counterpart earned. This is a startling reality in the modern world and women continue to be discriminated solely on the ...

The progress made in the field of aviation has reached new paradigms. The simple airframe of the Wright Brothers has been modernized beyond belief. Although this industry has been claimed as the frontier of men, none can overlook the significant contributions made by women aviators. Women have been able to break the glass ceiling and rise to the highest levels in the aviation industry since 1903. Despite the laws and policies that protect the rights of women, inequality between men and women still remains widespread and deep rooted especially in this field dominated by the male counterparts. Little do ...

In order to understand the role of women in Victoria’s England, it would be of interest to study the role of women during the Roman Empire. Why this is important, is because, there is a lot of similarities in the way England was ruled in comparison to Rome. The Roman society was undoubtedly dominated by men, and this is evident by the names of great leaders such as Julius Caesar, and Augustus. The Roman Catholic Church too had a huge role to play in the social and cultural life of the people of Rome. Despite evidences drawn from Roman history, ...

Surrogacy refers to an arrangement whereby a woman carries a pregnancy for another person, especially for individuals who cannot give birth. The rapid rise in outsourcing surrogacy has raised concern among people around the world. Some of the issues that develop from the practice include ethical concerns on women who offer themselves as surrogates, the women paying for surrogacy services, the agencies that contract such women, the government authorities, and the medical practitioners who build their practice around the practice. It is essential to identify the factors that contribute to the rise of surrogacy and outsourcing surrogacy, especially in less developed ...

Anne Crowther’s Why Women should be Nurses and not Doctors compare the differences between female doctors and nurses with respect to a classic example of two of the most prominent figures in their respective fields: Florence Nightingale and Sophia Jex-Blake. The paper starts with the author describing how Nightingale, on return from the Crimean war and already a legend in her field, set up the Nightingale school for nurses. Even though the school was never considered a success, it was able to keep up a good reputation in accordance to the reputation she had made amongst the public. Through the article, the ...

Similar to most of the other radical voices within the Revolutionary Era, there was much support towards gender equality encountered both disapproval and shock. Revolutionary movements of the time remained the pace of male dominance and preference (Gundersen 98). On the other hand, the elusive understanding for proper relationships between women, men, and the entire world undertook a significant dimension in the period. For this reason, the republican thrust with respect to revolutionary politics needed self-disciplined and intelligent citizens towards forming the new republic’s core. The element came in handy in helping to shape new ideals for the wives ...

Betty Rollin, in his article has condemned motherhood terming it as less important especially in the modern society. He concludes her article claiming that if God was to speak to people in an audible voice, he would say ‘multiply and be fruitful’ (Rollin 377). This is contrary to the biblical scripture that encourages people to increase in numbers through giving birth. Rollin has looked at motherhood in a negative perspective that is not fitting especially to a woman. She has neglected many other positive attributes of motherhood and mainly concentrated on the negatives. The fact is that, despite the challenges that ...

- If Adam Smith were faced with the problem of procuring donor organs, he might suggest that we would be better off relying on donors’ self-interest rather than their benevolence, and advocate a market solution to distributing this scarce resource. Karl Polanyi, however, might argue that society would be harmed by allowing the market to displace the gift relationships created by voluntary donation. Although both died before successful organ transplantation was possible, use what you have learned of their theories to state the position you think each would take on whether and why organ donations should be organized on a market ...

The family is a perennial topic in disaster films, where individuals struggle over moral and ethical decisions that continuously bother their conscience throughout the narrative. In the conventional collapse of modern society in disaster films, the family is oftentimes the only institution left that can withstand the chaos that ensues as a result of government failure. Where there is no community or social structure whatsoever to turn to, the main characters within the disaster narrative resort to forging their own relationships with the people they come into contact with, whether it is based on blood relations, an identical purpose, or a similar ...

Key concept and rationale

The gay liberation movement gained momentum in the 1970s and gave rise to many two men and two women relationship households. As a result, many such same gender couples have been opting for means to raise biological families, in a manner similar to heterosexual couples. The key concept of the article was to explore the preconception, pregnancy and new motherhood experiences of the non-biological mothers in the lesbian couple. There have been many studies depicting the need for becoming a biological parent among the lesbian mothers; however, very few studies have been conducted to understand the unique difficulties faced by the lesbian ...

12 Years a Slave Jamestown, Virginia discovered success with the cultivation and export of tobacco to England in 1619. The profit was so high, two imports were arranged: 20 black men for labor and 90 women from England for brides. This is the beginning of slavery in America (Innercity.org 2014). The brutality of slavery was depicted in art, photographs, literature, and journalism. While many slave owners treated their slaves well, history remembers beatings, rape, murder, and splitting families apart. The debate at the time was whether Africans were animals, human, or a blending of the two. The argument was decided ...

Redefining motherhood

Introduction The economy and the cost of living change the perspective of parenting in general and mothering in particular. With a high demand for basic needs such as education, mothers are increasingly flooding the job market to earn a living and supply their children's needs. This action leads to high rates of single-parent families or inadequate interaction between the mother and her family. The traditional form of nuclear family consisting a working man as the sole bread-winner and the wife as a full-time home-maker is on the decline in most urban households (Garey, 1993). In order to match the new standards and ...

The way social norms change and how well people adjust to these changes has always been fascinating. Growing up as a child whose mother was working, I have always come faced with viewpoints that I felt lonely and abandoned, because, they said, I lacked maternal affection. I never understood why affection was measured by the hours a mother spends with her child, because I was raised with much love and nurture, even though I did not see my mother as much as other children that had their mothers at home. I felt resistant to the concept that staying at home mothers ...

The American Revolutionists have difficulties in unifying the United States which comprises of colonies which are newly independent. The constitution was approved in the convention in 1787 and the states will be responsible for the ratification. Ratification of the constitution is very important during that time since it could result to the division of the United States if it did not happen. However, debates have arises and separated the nation into two political parties which is the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists (Wood, 2003, p. 164).
