I feel Jennifer and her family do not have good communication. I understand that Jennifer is grown and she is trying to do it all, but she really needs to express her feelings to her family. I also believe her family should start asking her if she needs help, or ask her how she feels. I find it very sad that Jennifer’s husband does not at least try to help with the housework, or pay for a maid. Financially I think Jennifer and her husband are doing great.
Some people blame their past and dwell on how it has negatively affected them. Others are able to analyze their past and learn from their mistakes. Melissa Rodriguez took her life by the horns and created her own happiness. However, it took years of hard decision-making, trials, and tribulations to realize that she is strong. In this paper I will discuss how Melissa’s upbringing has affected her, and the changes made as she transitioned into motherhood.
Our self-concepts consist of our impressions and our beliefs about ourselves (Psychology and the Challenges of Life: Chapter 2.3.2, 2010). Jennifer’s self-concept is affected in a manner whereas she insists that she is not stressed and that she is happy, but finds she is making more than the normal amount of mistakes at work, unable to keep up with housework as a wife, and feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. Conditions of worth are standards by which the value of a person is judged (Psychology and the Challenges of Life: Chapter 2.3.2, 2010). Jennifer is beginning to question her effectiveness as an, wife, employee, daughter, and potential mother therefore affecting her
Their gender roles may play a significant role in this conflict. Jennifer is a female filling the roles of mother and wife. As a mother, Jennifer’s children are one of her top priorities and she may worry about uprooting them with a sudden move. As a wife, Jennifer may feel that her husband is giving little value to her employment, which is very important to her. Randy is a male filling the roles of both father and husband.
* This reveal the power of family tie, and how big the impact is family members can have on others. Although mama was not beside Chanda, Chanda still missed her a lot, and constantly remembered her. * Chanda is demonstrating the simple idea that the truth hurts, and it hurts to admit that her mother is dying. This specific quote implies how AIDS can tear apart a family. Tearing apart a family does not mean arguing or having an affair, but it could also mean question and not finding the answers.
Kim thought that since he was a doctor there he could get special treatment. Kim’s actions to the woman at the front start to make his ex-wife worry about his temper. With Kim’s reactions of him being impatient doesn’t really help him or Becky when he was in the room with Dr. Morgan. When he went to talk to Dr. Morgan he couldn’t control his temper “what the hell is it Dr. Morgan (Kim spat 56)”. Kim not thinking of his actions gets him into more trouble.
Susan Smith thought she was being raised by two loving parents, but it turned out to be with a mother that was blind to the fact that her daughter was being abused by a man that played the part of daddy. Susan was forced to become the woman that everyone expected her to become but her avoidance of receiving help for her issues may have caused her to break. There is no known cure for Dependent Personality Disorder, but it is recommended that a person that is diagnosed seeks the assistance of a psychiatrist immediately. Had Susan Smith pursued help from the outside prior to her making the decision of murder, she would have been able to receive the proper guidance that she should have received as a young
I would have to agree with that because I am actually going through my parents getting a divorce and when I found out I didn’t want to believe it at all I didn’t want to see my parents split up it just wasn’t right to me. It really caused me to feel depression and I felt like I was the blame for their divorce. Thinking about it more I feel like can this divorce ruin my love for someone when it happens will I myself get divorce and put my kids through what I went through, I would not want that to happen and it scares me sometimes for my
Most men wouldn't do that; they would get tired of it and leave or ruin their marriage. Both “the husband”and “the wife” knew that the wife was sick. One difference betwen Kai and the huasband their personalites. The husbands in both stories share the problems with their wives as a test of love. They also feel emotional since their wives cannot show their love fully due to the problems they are undergoing.
It was also hard for the girl to feel at ease with her natural parents. After experiencing many family issues, I come to realize that being a father or parent is not the ability to give birth; but good parenting is really the time that one takes to love, care and raising a child. The ability to give birth can make one a dad or mom but it does not make you a parent. I would definitely empathize with the foster family for the grief and suffering this rapture may have caused to their family. I would also empathize with the daughter for being traumatized by this tragedy.
