In Anthem parents are pretty much non existant. The characters mate, and then the children created from the mating are taken away and raised. In Fahrenheit 451 parents are not really brought up. They do mention that having a child would be fun, though. The three pieces of literature The Giver, Anthem and Fahrenheit 451 are very creative and interesting ways to portray the future.
In Leave It to Beaver to find the “ideal” family like June and Wards, a family with two parents. They show you another family called the Mondello, a family with two parents but, it always seems like the Mr. is out of town, making it seem like a single parent home. Many tines does Ms. Mondello ask the Cleavers for help parenting her son on her own. It made it seem like single parent homes always had problems and that they child was always on trouble. Back in the 1950s single parents home were considered taboo, you rarely ever saw it, that and interracial couples were never shown on Leave It to Beaver, nor were those who were part of the lgbt community.
Tyrell changes from static to dynamic by the end of the story. He does the right thing when he tells his best friend Calvin that he can’t bring drugs into the party area. I can identify with the character when he gets tired of feeling like the parent to his younger brother Troy. Another character is Troy, Tyrell’s younger brother. Troy is seven years old in the first grade, and because his mother likes to receive his SSI checks she keeps him in the PEC program.
People of different skin colors than white typically try to assimilate into the American culture; some succeed, some do not. Ethnicity plays an important in forming a person’s perspective. In the essay “An Indian Father’s Plea” by Robert Lake, there was a five year old boy name Wind-Wolf that had a hard time assimilating to the American culture. He attended an American school. While his time there, Wind-Wolf’s teacher labeled him as a “slow-learner” because he did not know the things an average kindergartener knew.
Although no actual Foster Care program was official back then, they would most like stated be placed in a family at random with no background check required like present day. Child Protective Services or CPS is program in which children who are abused and/ or neglected are removed from their home and the county or state in which they reside has temporary custody of the child (Wikipedia). Every state has different protocol but they all have one goal, to protect abused and neglected children (Wikipedia) . Although their ultimate goal is reunite the child back to their parent or guardian (AdoptUSKids). Currently more than half 66% of children are or were abused or neglected by their parents in
Teenagers went from feeling like they were being trapped by their parents to a new independent feeling of freedom. No longer did they feel like they “had’ to follow in their parents footsteps. Because this was a new experience for many parents, they thought their children were doomed and their futures hopeless. Parents did not consider that this new independent freedom could be a phase and that once their teens reached adulthood it would be over. The many new fashions trends, activities and most importantly the legendary Rock N’ Roll music Wilson 4 became a direct reflection of the creations established by the rebellious 1950 teenager.
This is further proved by Kathleen Gough (1959) who talks about the Nayar Families. She explained that the Nayar girls were married before puberty however the husband had no obligation to live with the wife neither did he have to keep in contact with her and he instead went out to act as a mercenary. The only duty the wife had to do for the husband was to attend his funeral and mourn for him. The wife was also allowed to be sexually active with up to 12 other men and the man was allowed more. Nayar society groups were based on the wife’s relatives and marriage did not play a part in how the households worked or how the children were brought up.
Nathaniel, a black youth from Pontiac, Michigan grew up without a father. This is why I strongly believe he did so of the things he did because he somewhat felt like he was alone and he just wanted to be notice. He never learned the responsibility of his actions but his mother tried to get him help but no one would help her because she knew that her child would get into serious trouble if she didn’t. People would also say Nathaniel’s case, it can be said that his lack of a positive role[->0] model, or father figure lead to his criminal activities. His mother, Gloria, was struggling to raise three children by herself.
The charade was created in order to protect his biological mother from harsh criticism and prejudice of being an unwed mother. At the age of four, Ted and his mother moved to Tacoma, Washington to live with relatives. A year after the move,
Eden just recently was reunited with his birth parents. He was adopted when he was nine months old to his family now and couldn’t ask for a better family. But he, along with everyone else that is adopted, just wanted to know where he came from and why he was put up for adoption. Again and again he was turned down by the adoption agency because he was a part of a closed adoption. Eden had stopped trying to find answers after he was turned town several times.
