I have to be able to make sure that I set aside enough time to do my schoolwork. Having a wife and children and also having a full time job with a lot of overtime, and which I drive to and from an hour every day can make it difficult to get my work done proficiently. Making sure that my wife does not get overloaded with the children is also a concern. I do not want the fact that I am attending school and work affect the duties that I have as a father and as a husband. I also want to make sure that they understand that I have to spend the time needed to get my work done as effectively as possible.
The Imbalance of Work and Family Many times in modern society working individuals find it difficult to balance family time and work. One will always take time from the other and finding a balance between the two is rare. This is shown in “Contents of The Dead Man’s Pocket” by Jack Finney, where Tom Benecke choses to work instead of going to the theatre with his wife, and he ends up regretting this choice greatly. The theme of this story is that family time is much more important than work and family must be held before work, and a similar theme may be seen in “Double Daddy” by Penny Parker, and “The Child’s View of Working Parents” by Cora Daniels and Ellen Galinsky. First of all, the theme is shown as the story progresses and Tom Benecke’s character develops.
I always wanted to go to workwith him. I never thought about going to work just to make a living, but it did make it a little clearer for me to understand. My father would let me know that I will be out on my own one day, and in order to live life comfortably I will have to work to earn a living. I now realize what Russell Baker meant in his quote “go to work and make a living.” There are so many children out there that are clueless about work in America. Most don’t understand what their parents work for.

Twenge says, “There’s this idea that, ‘Yeah, I don’t want to work, but I’m still going to get all the stuff I want” (Peck 303). Some young adults have not even left their home before. They enjoy staying at home and not realizing that they should go out to find jobs. The main reason why young adults do not want to work is that their parents still guide them like children. Today, millions young adults are facing real problems: lack of job opportunities, housing, and trying to survive in a fast, globalized world.
We may be going home from a bad day at work and stir that bad day in our house then it will prevent a big fight. As soon as I learned about this type of listening, then I discovered to myself this is the other reason of our fights because we don’t share together what happen at work. Sometimes I always try to hide it from my husband but I feel guilty about it because that is why I marry him is somebody to lean on for whatever happen. This works in any relationship and I know it will apply well for you guys and your future. Second, is active listening, to become an active listener you have to “respond to feelings, encourage the speaker to get in touch with his or her own thoughts and feelings by phrasing what was just said, ask questions and give your undivided attention.” (Roland, 2000) These are some steps that researcher recommend for active listener.
So many people want to be independent but this actually creates a problem, more seniors are relying on community facilities or retirement homes to assist them with their daily living. Another thing about seniors is that they want to stay in their homes but cannot be able to afford the mortgage or let along the up keep of a home. So a great number of seniors are having to turn to retirement homes or even assisted living facilities. I believe that another reason why the health care is facing this problem today is because a great number of family members do not have the patience to put up with their loved one so they send them to an assisted home or even a retirement center. Which is sad to me because an individual’s mom and dad raises them but when it comes to the time for them to take care of them they just ship them
CASE STUDY MR X WILLIAM SIM EDINB1A 11 WORD COUNT 1887 So let’s look at Mr X. He is 45 years old and has worked for the same company for 18 years. The job of manager is available but he is not sure whether to apply as he feels he may upset his colleagues, but he has done the job before when the manager was on holiday, so he knows he can do it. Is fear of failure holding him back? His colleagues think he is boring because he does not go for a drink with them after work on a Friday, but this is the day he visits his mother at her home.
There are many other people who are in the same situation and struggling to survive. I don’t think that unemployment benefits should be a lifelong crutch; however there needs to be a change to assist. People who have been diligently looking for jobs, going on interviews and settling for lower incomes are losing their homes, vehicles, services and self-dignity. There needs to be something formed to protect them and rehabilitate them. My mother now lives and depends on me not because she desires to but she has no other choice; this is not fair.
When my family first decided to have my grandmother move in, we were doing it because the area she was living in just was not safe anymore. We thought she would be a good addition to the house, helping with things such as cooking, cleaning, watching after the dogs, and a multitude of other jobs. But we were not prepared for the real reason why she could not live by herself anymore. After becoming worried about her and sending her to the doctors, we found out she had Alzheimer’s disease. The next few years would be difficult, but opened my eyes to a huge issue that is impacting the entire world.
