What does Baker (2001) mean by the myth of the monolithic family and how does that relate to academic and government definitions of the family? This is a difficult question to answer without first looking at both what a family is in general and then, more specifically, what is a monolithic family. Once this is established, then we can define why Baker (among others) defined this monolithic family as a myth. We will then be able to relate this definition to the differences between the academic definition and government definition of the family. Before we can begin to look at what Baker says of the ‘myth of the monolithic family’, we first need to attempt to define what a family actually is (and this is a very difficult task!).
This paper aims to clarify the strengths of Parsons’ arguments, such as the functionality and effectiveness of certain systems within our culture, while contrasting the outdated viewpoints which he presents that might not be as applicable in today’s modern times considering the amount of social changes and open opportunities that are now available to both sexes. Parsons introduces his ideas on the “kinship system” by discussing the family structure, focusing in on the various life stages that a child goes through to emancipate themselves from the ties they have gained from their parents and other family members. The familiarity and comfort of such ties eventually become a burden and must be cut off in order for an individual to become a fully functional member of our society. The article goes on to state that one of the most difficult stages of growing older would be adolescence, where a “youth culture” is practiced, allowing for a passageway meant to ease “the difficult process of adjustment from childhood emotional dependency to full ‘maturity’” (Parsons 1943: 301). This serves to provide one
An evaluation of the effectiveness of legal and non-legal responses to each issue Family law is a fundamental aspect of our legal system, seeking justice through providing protection for the family unit whilst ensuring the best interests of the child is met. The contemporary issue of Surrogacy and birth technologies is a growing concern in society in which the law must be responsive to. The federal government has been slow to pass laws relating to surrogacy issues and the courts are constrained by editing legislation. This challenge was reformed through the Surrogacy Act 2010 (NSW) that encourages parties to understand their decisions and the impact on the child. The recognition of same-sex relationships within Australia have become

mTHCaroline Mauney English101-713 Charles Baker 22October2011 Foster Children Programs The foster care system in the United States addresses a precise set of cases--children who need temporary housing while their families sort out a difficult set of problems. Such children are likely to return to their families, but cannot do so until issues of employment, housing, and drug dependency are solved, which sometimes takes time. Many criticisms of foster care are based on practices that happened decades earlier (Jacobs).Today foster care is one useful tool in the arsenal of weapons available to social workers to assure that children are protected. Although In the United States this year, about half a million children
It begins with negotiating the release of children and their physical separation from armed forces and groups. The family tracing and reunification phase that follows is a time-consuming and requires resource-intensive effort. Beyond the challenge of locating the families and communities of lost children, successful reunification must also address the challenge of reconciling children and their communities, especially when children may have committed atrocities in their hometowns. In order to ensure a proper reintegration and protection of former child soldiers and reconciliation within communities, the question of accountability has to be addressed. Children who suffered from the conflict should be able to seek justice for the violations of their rights including through their participation in judicial and non-judicial processes.
Nature vs. Nurture Sociology 201 April 6, 2013 When the rearing of children is observed by outside people, they look to see how the child was raised. Whether they were coddled by the parents over every little thing they do, or if they were left to grow up with just the world influences around them, to form them into the child they are. The nature vs. nurture debate has been one of the biggest debates out there. People feel very strongly on one side or the other. I will in this paper describe a little bit of both sides of the debate, and then give my opinion on it.
