Having newspapers /magazines in the house/care home, helps the individual keep up to date with current affairs and events. Having calendars on the wall will aid the individual to remember the day of the year.

Nowadays the traditional festivals are not the signals of the culture and history anymore. There become the tools of the business people who do not have conscience. For New Year, many people chose to go outside to have the New Year eve dinner, and they do not make dumplings any longer. When they go outside, the business people tried to names their dishes with beautiful implied meanings, and then raise the price to earn more money. In the mid-autumn festival, the moon cake became a fancy gift but not a little cake that use for remembering relatives who are far away from the family.
I think there were other reasons also, but the story points to this one in many places. First of all, Connie was not happy at home. To me Connie felt ignored by her dad and the other family members because they could give her the attention she wanted. This sort of relates to John Hughes movie "Sixteen Candles" Sam Baker struggles to get through the day on her 16th birthday because her entire family has forgotten about it and gave there attention elsewhere, to her sister wedding. Her father was most of the time at work and when he was home he didn't bother talking much to Connie.
Every time her uncle and aunts go visits her she always gets sad when they have to leave because of the goodbyes. Although most of the time his flights are delayed, she decides to stay home instead of going along to drop him and leaves, her father tells her that her uncle said he will never forget them. Furthermore, she talks about the day she turned fifteen and how they did not have enough money to celebrate like most girls with a quincenera but instead they have a gathering of 6 people to celebrate. Their budget is tight but her mom still decides to buy what her daughter deserves and nothing lower. She has a fun memory despite the struggle of being poor.
My family eats out only once or twice a week and the other days we eat home cooked meals. Parents are to blame for childhood obesity because they have the means to teach their children but choose not to because they believe someone else will teach them. It is not the lack of a nutritional guide or large portion sizes at cheap prices it is the irresponsibility of parents that is the cause. If you do not teach your kids who

When dinner was ready I tried to sit and talk to her but she stood up with her plate and gone she went to her room. I could not believe this atrocity was happening to me. Eventually, we had to go together to family reunions but this didn’t stop her from not talking to me. Sometimes my mother would not wait for me to come out of school and she would leave me home alone to go eat lunch with her sisters. This looked like revenge to me against what I had said before when I was sixteen.
You can also see if the children have any books at home. If you see that a child is without something, this can help you know to send books home with certain children so they are getting just as much literacy practice as another child. Also, by visiting your students’ families, it makes the children more comfortable to open up to you in writing about things they are going through. They won’t be ashamed to share something that is on their heart about their family because they know you have met their family. It makes them feel like you understand them better.
At home and sometimes in public, my child would occasionally have emotional outbursts or tantrums about not getting something he wants. When he was 4 years old, my child had problems behaving properly all the way through a meal at a fast-food restaurant. He sometimes crawls under the table or starts complaining loudly that he wants to leave. These problems occur because of the type of environment that is displayed in the home, especially for parents with conflict-ridden marriages and mental problems. In these scenarios, I would use positive discipline by providing reasons for rules.
Except the difference here is that it is not by intention, it is because they do not have any other option. People everyday there are struggling to even get to half a meal into their systems per day and to provide food for themselves and their whole family as well. Living in a terrible condition with no money, home, car, food and even water is what causes so many terrible deaths but yet here in America people from higher economic status’ choose to not eat and think that, that is what can make them look and feel beautiful. Living in such a good area, us women sometimes forget that we are so blessed to have everything that we have. We go out to dinner and order the biggest meal we can find and end up only eating less than half and leaving the restaurant not realizing how much food is wasted and not considering the fact that there are so many people struggling around the world for just a couple bites of the food we have just wasted.
