    Animals have been an integral part in helping manage PTSD in veterans who exhibit symptoms. Most popular would be in the form of service dogs but horses and other animals, such as dolphins, have also been used with success. Animal assisted therapy encourages socialization, comforts the veteran in times of stress – which disrupts emotional inaccessibility – supports integration, and decreases hyper-arousal and hyper-vigilance. It is encouraged that returning veterans, especially those with PTSD help train service animals. The theory behind Animal Assisted Therapy is based on the emotional connection formed with the animal. This bond can possibly transcend into forming bonds with family members and friends since this is a trouble area for a veteran with PTSD. By training the animals themselves, they can gain feelings of self-worth and community in being able to help another veteran with a service…

    I conducted a survey of 40 of my peers to find out their first impressions of me. I discovered that people thought I was nice but not naive, bizarre but in a cool and relaxed way, studious and outgoing but yet still laid back and chill, and I am happy to say good looking but (unfortunately) not in a movie star way. People also had the misconception that I was quiet, but by our second encounter, this quickly disappeared as they realized I was the complete opposite. All of my 40 peers now agree that I am an effortlessly loud presence. I would like to change this perception of shyness because it is not who I am. I lead the male portion of my chorus and blast out the solos, participate in class so much that it is almost like I am having a conversation…

    We all have encountered some type of stereotype or prejudices. A stereotype that I had to face was age prejudice by me being so young sometimes people don't set the high expectations for you that other people would at an older age because they expect for you to make mistakes. At times my mindset isn't where most kids are at my age. I skipped pre k and I am supposed to be in the 8th grade. When I tell people my age they be like " OMG you are young to be the grade that you are in" this is a perfect example of what I am stating that people sometimes think that you have to be average and can't go over and beyond your years.…

    In today’s culture, many aspects of the stereotype “normal” childhood have changed, including what activities children take part in, what they do in their free time, and it is even changing the way most children are eating in their everyday diet. Food is actually a big part in society's culture, parents are often too busy nowadays that they don’t take the time to make a home-cooked meal; instead they just stop by the closest fast-food restaurant to pick up the families dinner. This is impacting children by their parents showing them it’s okay just to pick up some food instead of taking time to make a much healthier meal; this is causing obesity and health problems and is starting to affect how a child responds in everyday activities,…

    With undesirable role models of masculinity as well as promotions of alcohol appearing more frequently in advertisements and through an increase in media consumption, the consequential effects on the youth must be considered. Good morning/afternoon representatives and board members of the United Nations Youth Forum; a major concern raised by Susan Gigli in her 2004 UNICEF report was that young people have an apparent inability to distinguish between advertising and content on televisions and how this can be harmful through creation of unrealistic false stereotypes. This would not be a problem if advertisements were not littered with misrepresentations of men and alcohol culture; indoctrinating the developing youth’s minds through these marketing campaigns. Today I will focus on a recent XXXX Gold Beer advertisement, and how it is problematic as it encourages young men to pursue a future of…

    Not fitting into the specific gender roles and characteristics have to be some of the hardest things that some males and females go through. It has been decades since the whole “mothers stay at home” and “fathers work and earn the money” era, but when one expectation ends, others multiply. In today’s culture it is not okay to be a feminine man, and a masculine female, those two things just do not add up in 2016. There are standards men and women must live up to in order to “fit in” and be considered “normal”. It is unfair, to say the least, for the people who will never be able to overcome these qualifications. In this culture there is an ideal body shape, certain BMI to obtain, looks you must live by, and specific ways to act, all of this…

    It's impossible not to notice, how our modern pop culture's stereotypes influence how women supposedly should look after giving birth. It all comes down to a not-so-realistic picture, an expectation that many believe is unattainable and simply impossible to achieve with anything conventional... Indeed, many medical experts say, that burning calories with a breastfeeding will not burn all the calories you consume, just as well as too much fitness and other physical activities immediately after giving the birth will not give you a picture perfect either. With the daily (even hourly) ravage of Instagram photos by the likes of Kim Kardashian and Gisele Bündchen of our pop-culture, it's hard to avoid that kind of pressure. Eventually women feel the need to lose weight and tighten up just weeks after welcoming their baby. Dr. Diana Zuckerberg, president of the National Research Center for…
