In regards to traditional family, Brazilians have very substantial catholic roots; which in turns implies a high presence of catholic family models, with some “modern twists.” The traditional family model in Brazil is a man and woman headship, church marriage; however, because of how current and distorted the view of marriage has become in Brazil, there is a law now that enacts a “stable union,” versus a church marriage which has been falling in “fashion” the last few decades. A “stable union” means that people become “married” under the law by way of contract with the exact same rights as a married couple, but do not change their names and claim the official status of “single.” The average ages in which men and women engages in these “stable…

I am from the Island of Haiti with French and African ancestors. The Haitian culture is very much part of our family. Haitian food has a sense of the Creole that is a blend of influences.

We eat everything from Chicken, pork, beef, goat and seafood. Also, potatoes, rice, corn, beans, plantains. There is also a strong presence of tropical fruits…
The ‘child-savers’ movement began in New York in the early 1800’s. These early groups were concerned mainly with the moral education of children. They felt that private groups and families were not doing enough to properly educate young people and wanted more control to be given to the government. These groups were formed by prominent members of the community who could influence law makers. “Child-saving organizations influenced state legislatures to enact laws giving courts the power to commit children who were runaways or criminal offenders to specialized institutions” (Seigel & Welsh, 2011). From these groups the concept of parens patriae was made popular.…
