We are living in a society where in order to survive, two-income households are virtually a necessity, but household chores and child rearing are still considered the woman’s responsibility. Men in society are still expected to work and provide. But what happens after a child is born? In American culture it is usually the mother who takes maternity leave to give birth, care for and bond with the child while she recuperates and her body heals. After a standard, and usually unpaid, 12 week leave, she usually will return to work, only to come home and take care of the household, and now also, care for her new baby.
They may not do it on purpose but whether they realize it or not, it can destroy their family. Fathers should not make their job too much of a priority because it upsets and affects the female parent, a father’s presence helps children’s development, and it can be bad for the fathers health. The biggest problem mothers have with overworked fathers is the lack of attention showed to the child by the father. “We have a one year old who misses his daddy as much as I do.” (healthboards.com). This was written by a female parent on healthboards website.
When I criticize and attack myself, it is because knowing I failed makes me think about if i had tried harder then it would have made a difference. Negative self concept is often hidden from the world because we are suppose to perceive ourself with positivity in order to be accepted but that can change. Self concept is basically the beliefs and attitudes we role play in our lives. In How to Improve Your Self Concept, it mentions “your attitudes about yourself may be positive for some roles, and not so positive for others”. There will always be negative views because we do not live even near a Utopia society and we cannot please everybody.
My parents teaching this to me impacts society because I didn’t take from society and I didn’t want to harm something I was productive member of. We should all obey the law. There are laws out there that we may thing are just plain dumb. In order to have balance. Those who rob and steal lose harm society.
When she persuaded fellow employees to shut their machines off and participate in her protest, profit was lost since no product was being made. Profitability was being compromised, which is also a fundamental principle from the managerialist approach. Norma Rae was trying to be above the manager in the sense that her actions where influencing other workers to go against the company. From a managerialist approach, the manager is supposed to be above theP employees and is the only one that should have control and influence his/her workers. The managers were in fear of being unionized because they were afraid that a union would affect their everyday productions and interfere with their profit.
It’s common sense not to text and drive. Many People already notice that it’s wrong but they still tend to do so because they are selfish and self- centered. They don’t care about the safety of others as well as their self. It can lose your life or someone else’s and once you do it you can’t undo what you did.

People running away from not going to war can be a good or bad depending on whom the person is. To me people that would run away don’t care about anybody but themselves. Leaving your family and everything behind to go to another country is very hypocritical to me. To me family is everything and without one you can be lost in the world. I don’t know why someone risk going to prison and not to defend his or her country.
Nowadays, our society raises us to believe that obedience is good and disobedience is bad. We are taught that we should do all what we’re told and that disobedient people are mostly accused of being bad people. Society tells us this, but it is not true. Disobedience is sometimes a necessary transitional phase and it’s not always harmful as people claim. Could disobedience be the step to a prosperous future or to the end of human civilization?
To me it is unethical to betray myself and treat myself worse than the way I should. This actually simplifies a huge part of struggling inside my heart.

The result is typically the worse the crime the harsher the punishment according to the jury’s collective moral beliefs. With that being the mentality of others, when placed in a position of leadership, the costs of being successful are questioned. Is it better to follow the golden rule and lead people with a gentle heart or to create a façade portraying certain characteristics wanted by the people, but ultimately ruling with an iron fist? The comparison of Beowulf and Machiavelli’s The Prince display both aspects of this argument. Always doing the right thing by others led Beowulf to his death, showing that what is believed to be a virtue will not help a kingdom to thrive, but destroys it.
