SOCIOLOGY CASE STUDY OUTCOME 1 PART2 When looking at the impact of the family upon child A from a functionalist perspective where all the parts of the machine/body need to work for it to run smoothly then it is blatantly clear that there are many parts of this particular family have not been working the way they should. Firstly if you start with the absence of any father then this leaves child A without one of the primary care givers and the role that he would’ve filled. This rejection from the father has caused a massive blow to child A’s self-esteem and has left feelings of low self worth, anger and confusion. The absence of the father also meant there was no positive male role model for child A and this may be at
Her carer often comes round and is nasty to her, pushes her and calls her names. Mary hasn’t told anyone because she thinks it is her fault, she is being annoying and this is why her carer is horrible to her. Also people who are dependent on others for personal care. Sometimes people living alone and depending on a carer can make a person very isolated and they may find that their main contact with the outside world is through their carer. Their carer may be the person they see the most in the day.
Social Isolation His lack of mobility will affect his social visitation, and he is a widower as is his brother who is also elderly and we don’t know if he will be able to make daily visits.

These men, women, and children suffered much and lost too much. The family in this movie shows that life is never easy and gets sometimes to hard to bear, but when they stick together; it made the burdens easier to bear. The Great Depression in the end had a toll on anyone who lived during it, but it gave people a sense of perspective of how they should live their lives and what matters the most. Because in the end, money, bills, and other worldly things are not as important as the meaning of being a family because in just a blink of eye, those things could be taken from you and everything that means something to you will be
He is depressed, and in need of someone to talk to and to spend time with. His brother, Allie, was very important to him. When Allie died, Holden was a wreck, and is still affected by it today. He is also mad about his other brother, D.B., for leaving for Hollywood to become a “big time writer.” Holden is severely depressed by prior events in his life, and has no one to turn to for help and advice. In conclusion, the course of events that happened prior to Holden’s attending Pencey had changed who Holden was negatively, and this is apparent in his lack of attempt to become
Because the elderly have a stereotypical image that they are useless they become a focus point as they have negative attitudes towards things and become more dependent on friends, family and social care services. This theory is like the disengagement and activity theory. The social creation of dependency theory is both sociological and psychological theory.

(Omelas, 259). The people of the village in Omelas were some who no longer knew happiness or joy which played a major role in the way their victims were made to suffer.
Scout’s view is in this is that Walter is held back from his education and future because of his family’s poverty. He does not have the same opportunity as Jem and she do, because he is stuck aiding his father. The popular clichè that your team is only as strong as its weakest player fits in nicely here. As long as Walter is being unfairly dragged down by his father’s incompetence, he will never be able to achieve his full
In 20th century America, the legal definition of family is not what is portrayed within the two “families” that are formed in this story. Plainsong shows a very realistic representation of families in our society. Although the legal definition has not changed over the years, what has become socially acceptable within a household definitely has. The “ideal” family may be a mother, father and children but realistically that is no longer the case for the majority of families today. As time progresses it becomes more likely for a family to exist without a present mother or father, whether it be to divorce or the two never being married to begin with.
