This inflates questions about the ethics of children’s marketing and its impact on the health and well being of kids. The documentary Consuming Kids: The Commercialization of Childhood focuses directly on the huge impact this is making. You are what you buy; you are what you own, if you don’t have it you are seen as less fortunate than others. What you buy is who you are. Education and consumerism blindly targets you and is easily mistaken for happiness and satisfaction.

As Sainsbury's have a hierarchical structure they are most likely to lose a lot of money because for the marketing and research and development departments to carry out their functions they would need funding from the finance department. For this information to get to the finance department a lot of time would have been wasted and also for the finance department to reply to them, all this would cost them a lot of money. Advantages of Sainsbury's is that the power they have would be successful for the business as when work is being done the communication of the workers together when given commands from the manager and having to work better for the manager to impress them in order for more work to be done and at a more well-organized rate then if there was no pressure from the manager. Disadvantages would be that the workers would start to get stressed from having to complete the workload at too fast a pace for them to work at all times that they will start to work less and dislike there job and some days may not want to work as they are stressed to do work which is too much for them to cope as they are trying too hard to impress, this could lead to employees wanting to quit their job. Advantages are that when having to complete work set out by the manager to the employees it can be done efficiently so that the manager will be able to assess the employee and they could get a promotion to a higher part of their job.
Rusbult and Martz used this theory to explain why victims of domestic abuse remain in relationships, as they may still be in profit from the relationship despite the ‘cost’ of abuse. This profit may be due to the high investment the person has placed in the relationship, such as children. However this theory has many weak points, one being that you can’t accurately assess costs and benefits within a relationship making it hard it attribute maintenance of relationships on a profit from the relationship. The theory can also be viewed as reductionist for it focuses solely on the costs and benefits of the relationship for the individual with relationships being much more complex than this. As well as omitting factors such as emotion from consideration, despite the basis of what we believe to be a ‘romantic relationship’ being based on feelings and emotion.
As we live in a society and in families some consider the social development skills to be the most important a child can learn. Children learn through play. There are different stages of play depending on the child’s stage of social development. Children under the age of 2 generally play on their own, interacting mainly with their adult carer, known as Solitary Play. Between the ages of 2 and 3 years the children still play on their own but doing similar activities to other children but not influenced by them, this is known as Parallel Play.
First, children can provide is economic support to the family. Shaw recognizes that weather intended or not, children were often needed to contribute to the family income . O'Roark in a similar way says there is a "common desire for many children" . After a general read of the article I have concluded that one of the reasons he says this is the fact children could be an economic resource to the family. O'Roark provides more detail, saying that to few children can hurt the economy of the family, while to many can drain it .
It isn’t just quiet play that counts. That ambivalence can show up in the child care classrooms as an emphasis in structured lesson in the name of learning outcomes for school readiness. Outdoor time maybe limited because it’s seen as a non-educational recess rather than a chance to learn through playing outside. Play provides cognitive development inways that educational toys don’t necessarily address. Cognitive development is tied into physical and social interactions in the preschool years as children are constructing view of the world and actions in the preschool years as children are constructing a view of the world and discovering concepts.
4. George Herbert Mead was another pioneering scholar who contributed to our knowledge of how the socialization process works. How does play differ from the game? How can so much more be learned from games than from play? Watch young children engaged in games.
The money being used to make pennies could be made for other, more useful, things such as buying supplies for schools or helping the homeless. With the cost of penny making going up, the price of everything else has gone up along with it. Because of the growing and evolving economy, no longer does something cost a penny (Source C). Due to the inconvenience, most cashiers become frustrated when someone tries to pay for something with pennies. Although, by eliminating the penny, prices would either have to rounded up or down, but this could be a “win-win” for both the consumer and the corporate businesses.
Without the TANF program to provide help for these families the poverty rate would rise continuously. The welfare programs from analysts believe several factors have contributed to the decline, including an improved economy, tougher work requirements and diversion. Strategists that have moved applicants directly to work programs (Almanac, 20010). However, in my opinion I would say that welfare is not checked often enough and it should be more often. People who are on welfare tend to play the system because they know they can get away with it and take advantage, because the welfare office does not check like they should.
