Seeing how the department of behavioral health has been with my own two sons, has really taught me a lot. “Parent teen mediation is a helpful alternative that promotes healthy communication between parents and teen about their issues” (Petryshyn, 2004). Most parents are at a lost on why their child has behavioral issues, and that is why they will go and seek help from a professional.

This immediately shows that Parris is not the Godly character he is set up to be by the town and foreshadows that he is a corrupt leader in the village and that he will eventually be an antagonist.
Mitch McNamara 3012456 Engl.102-AS14 Dr. Ford October 18, 2013 Causes of Addictions (revised) In “Embraced by the Needle” writer Gabor Maté in his expository essay argues that in a person’s childhood they need a loving non-stressed environment so they will not need to look to outside sources such as drugs for that warm comforting feeling.

Because of this, the agencies have had to find a way to best serve this sensitive culture. We are then introduced to a model program that has been provided by the Elkhart-LaGrange settlement of Indiana (Weber, Cates, & Carey, 2010, p.
