Two children and one parent is not the best combination, especially when the children are girls who like to spend a lot. I did not mind bringing myself up because I had more control over things and I enjoyed helping bring my little sister up. There were times where I did wish I had more of a parental figure in my life, but I could not complain much. When I did ask for my dad’s help, he tried to be there for me, but sometimes he would not be. Whenever I needed to schedule a doctor’s appointment, my dad always made me do it for myself.
Our parents believed that they were parenting as they should since their parents used the same parenting styles on them as children. As I grew older, I often wondered if, perhaps, I would have had more confidence in myself had I been raised with a different parenting style such as authoritative and if my parents had shown me more love. I still suffer from a lack of confidence even though I went through twelve years in the military, received a Bachelors degree, and have held a few key positions. I blame my lack of self-confidence on my parents’ parenting style, my father’s alcoholism, and the violence I witnessed in our home. My parents were (and still are) very cold.
We are often quoted as not understanding what our young ones are going through. In my opinion, our children lose out if not properly reared. The first website I found is titled “Raising Boys Today” and the web address is http://www.preteenagerstoday.com/resources/articles/boys.htm. The author to this site is Jennifer Nelson, and her purpose is to educate parents on raising teenage boys. I found it easy to read for the article is in every day terms that allows easy association between my son and the article.
Jose Ramos Blk. 2 Personal Statement Response for Prompt #2 Word Count = 510 When I was still in my mother’s stomach, she told herself that her son has a gift given to him from god. It all began in the summer of 2009; I was 15 years old but full of lots of issues that I had to take on during that age but it all changed after I switched schools. Soon after arriving to my new school in Santa Cruz, I met my assigned counselor Lue Lutz. He was quite tall so it felt awkward at first because I never had a counselor so tall and also I was shy to talk with him.
So much of a child’s early life is affected by those who care for them and how they are cared for. I often found myself wondering where the manual was for these children. I mean everything we buy now a day comes with some type of manual and list of do’s and don’ts that can be easily applied in the care of the product. So, why not children? Often parents find themselves happily surprised at their good news and rarely seek out information that could make it so much easier on themselves and the child.
Although they were busy working every day , they always are trying to spend time with me, asking about school ,friends, helping me to make decisions in different problems, and how to solve them. Now I really appreciate their help because without their advices I couldn’t achieve my goals in life. Another reason staying close with your child is important because you give them the most valuable thing you own. Supporting that I can explain to be happy in life it is not easy, so through your parents you can learn not to give up , how to be patience, how to take stuff easy and a lot more. So if you have the opportunity stay close with your child at least half hour a day, have attention and interest ,make jokes and humor with them considering as friend because they will grow
Hannah Clark Professor Kurk English 1301.09 December 1, 2014 Repercussions of Homeschooling (revised) The number of children being homeschooled has grown in recent years. Many people erroneously believe that there will be repercussions if they homeschool their children, but there aren’t any. From K-9th grade, I was homeschooled along with my six other siblings. My freshman year, however, my parents chose to enroll me in public school. Homeschooling has proven an educational option, which has yielded great results for many families.
When they saw what I do, they will just follow me what i did and learn from it. This become a habit for me and them. I enjoy the feeling from become an good example for my brothers and cousin, but for some reason after we have been grow up, sometime I will thinking why I always have to be the one to do the most stuff at home, and I know I am not the one have most love from my parents, I think we all know the youngest child in the family gets the most love from parents, and they can get whatever they want, but not me, sometime feel not getting equal treatment. And I really want to be the youngest child in family sometime, having a big brother or sister can take care
Or, if she gave me money, she would give my brothers and sisters money too. It was real hard for her and I watched her struggle just about everyday for half of my life. Although she could not do very much for us, she made the best of what we had and gave us the best life possible. I really appreciate the man I have grown to become and owe thanks to my dear mother. I thought that we would never overcome our obstacles, but we kept on praying and asking God for better and he showed up.
She said that she had just eaten and she was ready to begin. I asked her to tell me a little bit about herself and how she is related to J.B.. She said that she is the mother of J.B.’s father and that she is his closest relative who lives in Rochester, MN. She said that she had always been proud of her only grandson because he is a good grandson and that she does her best to help him and his wife. She added that he and his wife are both going to school and since he is unable to work because of his chronic illness, his wife is under a lot of stress. I asked her questions concerning illnesses within her family and she was able to provide some information to make a genogram.
