1/22/2010 Charlie Gordon was a mentally challenged adult with a lot of desire to read and write. Everything he ever wanted or desired could have ended if one small thing in his operation to triple his IQ went wrong and that’s why I am against Charlie getting the operation. There are many reasons why he shouldn’t have gotten it, but there are three that stand out the most to me. One is that his life was put in great danger since it’s a brain surgery. Second was that there wasn’t enough research in the particular area, and third was that he will always remember being smart but never get the chance of being smart again.
I think that the most strong point about John and Elizabeth's relationship is that they are both trying to please each other, so the bond between them must mean something to the both of them. As both Elizabeth and John are trying hard to please one another, it probably is a very effective way of showing to each other how much they really care about one another. An example of this is 'I mean to please you Elizabeth'. I think that as John was reluctant to go to Salem, but didn't actually say that he wouldn't go "I'll think on it" is a sign of strength in their relationship because I felt that if John wasn't feeling guilty he would not have been so cooperative. Also, of course the kiss between them showed some tension as all Elizabeth did was "receive it", but it shows strength on Johns part as he is showing her physically how much he loves her.

This would be a great chapter of the book for parents to read because it would help them to understand why the school is doing what it is doing. There may be a lot of different things going on when it comes to discipline that a parent of a student with special needs does not understand and this chapter could given them a good insight to the reasons behind the actions. Also it would give parents the resources they need to maybe challenge what the school is doing if the school does end up over stepping their role in disciplining a student
A love that develops from a friendship usually prevents a lot of disappointments because you already know a lot about that person. Logical love is helpful in determining a partners’ potential in the relationship. This type of love is important in my life because it’s helped me to determine what kind of person I’m able to see myself with in the
It is of utmost importance to carefully choose the people we associate with, as we are greatly influenced by our own peer group because they can assist in developing a strong individual identity. We usually feel more secure when we know that we have others around us who share our goals and care about our progress. Being part of a peer group fosters the idea that we are accepted and loved for who we are. This is why change is often difficult for certain individuals because suddenly, you are cut off from your regular group, who you have become so familiar with. We sometimes seem wired to adopt the goals of the people around us, particularly when we develop a close relationship with them.
I attempted to be sensitive and explain the positives of maintaining good personal hygiene without directly relating the remarks to him. The conversation ended badly with M becoming very angry and upset and ultimately violent towards me. I have reflected on this incident a lot because it was distressing for M and resulted in my relationship with him being damaged. I concluded that it may have been easier for M if the conversation had been broken down into short sessions spread over a few weeks. So that the experience was not as intense for him.
After reading the essay by Emerson “Self Reliance” one of the passages interested me is the one where he talked about a person’s education and how you should not be jealous or try to copy what someone else has done with their live in the same exact why they did it. It is ok to admire somebody for wanting to better themselves and further their education and for you to want the same goals for yourself, but you should pursue your goals by doing things your own way and when you this you will feel the satisfaction of it all because you did it on your own will your own ideas. This relates to my own life because I have always wanted to do something in the medical field and also in law enforcement and it seemed like everybody I talked to was in the field one way or other. So I decided to go back to school to become a Medical Assist and when I did I received my Associate Applied Science Degree and now I am going further with my education and I am currently working on getting my Bachelor’s Degree in criminal justice so that I may pursue a career as a probation officer or something else in law enforcement. Other reason way I was inspired by this passage is how Emerson used imagery in this passage when he was talking about how “no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till”.
The goals should also be in coordination with your values and your purpose for the goals. It can often depend on what the couples are coming to counseling for in order to help the couple decide on what some of their goals should be. For example: A couple may come into the counselor office and needs help with their relationship because they seem to always argue. One of their goals could be how to help them minimize and eventually stop arguing so much and be able to discuss things in a decent manner. Goals can and will sometimes go wrong.
Is it not ironic then, that the very nature of teaching often makes us surrogate fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters? Students must be encouraged to do more than their best, for although it is clearly absolutist, we are all (or should be) capable of some intellectual development; achieving just enough to get by is a ‘cop-out’; we and our students should be challenged to grow.
