Traditional Family Artifact Analysis
The artifact I chose this for this week’s discussion board post is a screenshot of my Google search of, Traditional Family. The reasoning for this screenshot is that several individuals that I hear discuss the traditional family and/or correlate the negative circumstances of specific groups of people tend to explain the answer is the return of the traditional family system. In my opinion I detect racial undertones and when I speak to other people and ask them what is a traditional family, many of their responses mimic the racial aspect of many so called, experts. They seem to speak to not just a mom, dad, and kids. Rather they mention race as though segregation is a positive and worth

    During the research of children of homelessness I found that being a child is difficult; but, it is even more difficult when your family is poor, and unsecure. Imbalances within the family can be difficult even without outside influences making it even more difficult. We as teachers see more than parents think we do; wemay notice that a child shows up dirty to class, or seems distracted all the time. This is when we as teachers need to find out what exactly is going on with our students and their family. As a teacher we need to discuss how we will deal with children who are struggling, how we as teachers will connect with families and the different strategies that can be used to support students and families within their learning environment. As I researched the why homelessness occurs I also found that these children are a byproduct of the life they were dealt whether by being a single parent, a fatherless home, immigrants or homeless with nowhere else to go. Knowing what we can do as Early Educators to help homeless children and their families has become very important in schools. In these synopses you will find some information that will give you a better understanding of homeless children and what we can do as educators to help them overcome this obstacle in their life…

    African-Americans and Whites have differing attitudes toward families. Mike’s (Garzon lecture A) family was described as close-knit with family values and commitment mentioned as the highest virtue. He stated that the men had influence in his family structure, despite the stereotype of the absent black father. Even though his father committed suicide, he stated that his grandfather had a strong influence on his life and his brother. Mark’s (Garzon lecture B) response to his family heritage was different in that he grew up in a single-parent household. In addition, his attitude on ethnicity was that ethnic heritage was not of much importance to him. These differences in attitudes occur not only in the family structure, but also affect their…

    In today’s world traditional families is not what you usually see anymore. You usually see a single mother or fathers taking care of their kids or you see biracial couples together. Sometimes you see a grandmother/grandfather or aunt/uncle raising the children because their parents simply cannot do so. Or occasionally you will see a lesbian/gay couples raise their family as while. 21st century compared to the 20th century is different now. The 20th century is more traditional type families where the mother stayed home did motherly duties while the father was out working to provide for his family. Whereas the 21st century is more nontraditional type families because now and in days both parents work and the kids are usually in school or a babysitter watches them till the parents come home. So for this assignment I picked two…

    The way a family works has changed in the last decade or two. Back when this generations parents were kids and even when their parents were young, it is very different than young people today. A perfect example would be the television show “Leave it to Beaver”, which aired in 1957. It was about the Cleavers, an All American Family, trying to keep their youngest son Theodore “Beaver” out of trouble. He always finds his way into trouble, at the end of the episode his parents always help him by giving him advice an good life lessons. That show represents how families were close and protected each other. Now, in the 21st century, many families and even communities…

    Ethnography On Family

    What does family mean to you? “People you share love with a guess. I don’t think that it means only blood relation. Friends can be family because you can become so close and trust each other,” explained Bridgett Terry, the subject of my ethnography interview. What is family? She went on to describe that technically family is a social group made of parents and their children, whether they all live together or not. No matter where you are in the world, your family is always your family. It is not a geographically relative term. However, the concept of family can be less strictly applied to everyday life. For example, a person can have many different families. Some are of choice and some are ascribed. Some types of families may be preferred over…

    Conventional families:Family is a network of interpersonal rights and obligations arising out of birth and marriage and extends across household boundaries. Personal choice is allowed for to some extent, as in marriage.Family ties are seen as binding together people of all ages and sex categories into groupings whose members feel responsibility to provide and supports each other. Such interdependence within families is seen as the moral basis of society, and therefore as requiring compromise of purely personal interests.…

    In the essay "The Color of Family Ties" by Naomi Gerstel and Natalia Sarksian, the authors assert that traditional nuclear families are not the only ones capable of supportive relationships and strong family connections. In the other hand, minority families also discover that their families illustrate the most supportive relationships and strongest family ties. According to Gerstel and Sarksian, they states "Black and Latino/a, especially Puerto Rican families are more disorganized than White families, and that their families ties are weaker" (47). People usually believe Black and Latino/a are weaker and more disorganized than Whites. But the authors also point out "Minority individuals are more likely to live in extended family homes than Whites and in many ways more likely to help out their aging parents, grandparents, adult children, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles, and other skin" (48). In my opinion, I agree with this statement and I believe untraditional families are more likely to live with extended family than Whites. In "An Indian Story" by Roger Jack, it talks about nontraditional families with supportive relationships and strong family ties, which is a good example to describe of minority.…

    Even as family scientists and sociologists dispel our mythology of family with facts, we cling to the Ward-and-June-Cleaver vision of the way we were and ought to be. In truth, we never were as perfectly shaped as we thought. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, just 43 percent of families in 1940 were "traditional" in the sense that they had a working father and a homemaker mother and, of course, well-rounded children. Today, less than 20 percent of American families fit nicely into this shape and two-income marriages are now the norm (Otten). Others are blended and step-parent families, single-parent families, and extended families. Still united by the common threads of shared experience and, in the best of circumstances, shared…
