Scenario Max's parents are concerned about his socialisation and that is one of the reasons he is in care five days per week. They feel he needs the opportunity to play with other children and to make friendships. At home he plays by himself and is willing to join in play experiences initiated by his parents. During his first two weeks at the centre Max is withdrawn and makes little attempt to play with or initiate contact with other children. His arrival each morning is very stressful and he experiences difficulty separating from his mother.
Professional sports are no longer played on grass, dirt and hardwood floors but on calculators and cash registers. Pro athlete’s salaries must be reduced. Professional athletes are paid way too much. CBS Sports reported that in 2005-06 the minimum wage for a 2 year NBA veteran was $719,373; the minimum salary of $1,138,500 for a 10 year veteran. In the 1996-1997 season, NBA’s Michael Jordan was paid $33,450,000 for the year, or just over $1.06 per second, an outrageous amount of money for a player to play the game he loves to play.
Both the husband and the wife had well paying jobs, great health care, but they were still unable to afford the medical treatment that they required. It’s really scary to know that even those with health care can be reduced and forced into such a helpless state. Another example of unfairness is this elderly gentleman named Frank and his elderly wife. He is forced to work even though he’s worked all his life just to pay for his and his wife’s medication. Even employees of theses big shot insurance companies just can
Not only do Americans work more hours but also they get the least amount of vacation. “They put us Americans at 1,841 “average” hours a year and the Germans at 1,473 hours in 2000 – and then put us at 1,804 hours a year and the Germans at 1,436 hours in 2006” (New York Times). That means that Americans work a total of 368 more hours than Germans in 2000, and exactly the same in 2006. There has been a decrease in hours worked in America, but we are still working more than Germans. 368 hours turns into fifteen and one third days.
When people are very sick and have to lay in bed for months without showing a bit of progress, as in the majority of the cancer cases, they are in agony.“The Doctor believed that life must be extended as long they have the means and knowledge to do it” (Huttmann 114). This was a very scientific method of thinking. Doctors did not consider the emotional impact of the disease on the patient and the family members. Physicians are supposed to know when a person can have a chance to recuperate from sickness. In Macs case, the Doctor did not get emotionally involved and chose to endlessly approve resuscitation efforts.
What wasn’t normal was that she was sad, very sad. I had never seen my grandmother cry, that I could remember, and even worse I had no idea why she was crying. Now I can’t believe she didn’t cry more. Then she went to the hospital for a long time for various surgeries, and plans on what to do next. My brother and I stayed at my Grandpa’s house most of the time she was up there mostly only going home to sleep and get ready for school the next day, it was weird and confusing but my grandpa was good at getting our minds off of things and keeping our spirits up when he needed to.
with all of its technology and high industrial development is still lacking to provide all its citizens health services. The health care system in the U.S. has major faults that affect both patients and physicians. Many Americans lack health insurance, and cannot be seen by a physician routinely. There is a shortage of physicians due to the cost of medical school and of malpractice insurance. In order to provide free education for medical students, malpractice insurance for physicians, and free health care for everyone, taxes need to be raised.
Being there made me scared but encountering the nice nursing staff and doctors made me feel more secure. I would always ask questions like do you love you job and what made you become a nurse. Getting those answers and having those experiences made me feel more competent about the career choice that I was playing on pursuing. As I got older I began to do research on the field and I learn that it was not only a rewarding career but it was an auspicious one also. Nursing is one of the few careers
For example, an American boxer called Floyd Mayweather makes a staggering $85,000,000 per year, not including all the money he gets from commercials and other contracts. It’s really unfair to doctors, teachers, lawyers and all people with professions that are beneficial to society. Doctors spend seven to ten years, which is almost a decade of their lives, studying in order to help people; teachers spend their entire career teaching and cultivating the future members of our society and encouraging them to learn. A study also shows that teachers spend an average of 485 dollars on school every year. Those are the people with praiseworthy professions who deserve to get a higher pay.
Professional Athletes and Actors are Overpaid Studies show that half the world lives on less than 2.50 a day, and 22,00 children die each year due to poverty. However, actors and professional athletes are paid millions a year. Professional athletes and actors’ salaries have been in debate for many years. Some say actors and professional athletes don’t deserve the money they make, are overestimated, and are bad role models. On the other hand, some say they are highly skilled and deserve their money because of all their hard work.
