Although Ann (case study 1) fits in with the government definition, she does not see herself as a carer. This is a common feeling among people who care for family members. My aim is to highlight and discuss some of the difficulties and rewards of caring for a family member. Examples used will be from various sources, including a case study of Ann Walker, research studies by Hussein et al (2002), Townsend (1957) and Dutch et al (2006). There are many difficulties and rewards of caring for a family member, this depends on many factors; who are you caring for, if you are close to them, how much choice you had in becoming a carer, if you had to leave your job, personal attributes and how other family relationships are managed.
Neff also addresses the fact that there are people who are against people moving in together before marriage. She states that it’s a personal decision people make because living together can have lasting positive effects that can later solidify a marriage. The author also states while living together may be valuable for some relationships, it can also be the source of an unhappy ending for others. Even though people love each other and spend a lot of time together, the question still remains, “Can you live together?” I agree with the author’s views on living together before marriage because I am currently sharing a space with my boyfriend. Living together before marriage helps a couple establish roles and responsibilities in the household.
Child care programs like KinderCare are great for educating and socializing children and provide a safe, stable environment for parents to leave their children for the day. Unfortunately, many of these programs are too expensive or just unavailable. In fact, according to Runzheimer International, the U.S. national average cost for full-time day care for a 2 year old child on weekdays is $611 a month. Large cities such as Boston and New York are most expensive, with average daycare costs of a little more than $1,000 a month, while smaller cities like San Antonio, TX, and Jackson, MS, have the lowest average prices, around $350-$400 a month. For a parent trying to work full time and go to school while still providing for their family, daycare is just too big of an expense.

They provide treatment and support to client and their families to recover from addiction or to modify their disorder. So they can have a more pleasant satisfactory way of life. To be honest after graduation I can see myself doing any type of counseling I personally want to help people become a better them. The ideal counseling for me would be family therapy. Because I believe that even though you help a member of the family the rest of the family are still in a mindset that can eventually be damaging to the person.
Whitecliffe care home p6 Service provided - care home with nursing – it is privately owned Barriers to provision, for example: is there adequate funding?

Studies show that, low income home energy assistance program benefits seem to reach families at the highest social and medical risk with more food insecurities have higher rates of low birth weight children (Frank, 2006).
