Alex Polston 10/4/2014 I do not agree with the overall view of the article “Working at McDonalds.” This article intimidates the popular‚ undemanding jobs of teenagers at places that do not require a set amount of skills to begin work. Yes‚ these jobs are extremely easy to learn and they do not require much thought or concentration‚ but they do teach valuable job and social skills. Etzioni claims that these jobs are highly un-educational‚ cause teenagers to spend money on insignificant things‚ and

Working mothers are once again under scrutiny from the society. For a long time the belief has been that working mothers are not able to give their children the love and care that they deserve and therefore make their children have limited growth and development in both social and cognitive aspects (Raquel 1173). The view is that the relationship with the mother helps a child establish and maintain relationships with others. However‚ recent studies have proven that working mothers

Parents are experts on their own child and are their child’s first and main educators. To meet the needs of children in our care effectively‚ childcare centers have to build strong relationships with parents and make sure that the sharing of information is a two-way‚ on going process. Aim for practitioners should be to achieve an open‚ supportive relationship with parents‚ who will be made to feel welcome‚ involved and fully informed about what happens in the childcare center.

Today’s women are once again finding themselves and their decisions placed under the microscope. Ever since women began entering the working force‚ the debate has been looming over whether working mothers or full-time mothers are better mothers to their children. It is an important issue because it concerns the effects that it might have on these parents’ children‚ which are soon to be the leading generation in the society. I believe that women should not be criticized for deciding to pursue a career

March 2013 The Ideal Parent: Brightening a Childs Future Parenting is a big part of every ones lives; it makes up who you are as a person and in many cases projects who you will be in the future. Some adults have trouble manipulating their children and teaching them what is right from wrong‚ while others have a much easier time doing so. In my opinion there is no such thing as “the perfect parent”‚ both the mother and the father have their flaws‚ but what matters is that the parent is always there for

Needed The argument Harlan Coben has presented in his article‚ “The Undercover Parent”‚ is that it is acceptable to equip your child’s computer with spyware. Coben gives several reasons as to why parents should install spyware on their child’s computer. One reason‚ that a child could “unknowingly be conversing with a pedophile.” However‚ I disagree with the writer’s argument due to it being inconsistent and inaccurate. Parents should not install spyware on their child’s computer because it will put a

I believe parent involvement is the key to changing our communities in the years to come. The more we as parents become involved and show our children that we care‚ the better off our world will be. The country will benefit as a whole giving every child the opportunity to succeed in such a competitive country. I see a bigger push for parent involvement in charter schools than I see in the traditional schools‚ but I think this is quickly changing and will catch on quickly in the years to come. As
