However, the fact that the ghost is present in the play means that we, and Hamlet, can question the validity of what the ghost says. The whole basis of the revenge lies on the words of the ghost, but what if the ghost is an illusion of Hamlet’s? What if the ghost leads Hamlet to destruction, as is hinted at by Horatio’s rhetorical question “Which might deprive your sovereignty of reason/ And draw you into madness?”
Topic: family

This is notably the first hint at madness in the play, and Hamlet, perhaps having doubts about what the ghost says, delays his revenge and sets out to find proof for himself. He wants proof to assure himself that the ghost’s words are valid, and thus he puts on a ‘play within a play’ on the theme of his father’s death called the Murder of Gonzago to watch the reaction of his uncle. Whilst he delays his revenge, Hamlet does pretend to be mad, fulfilling Horatio’s prediction in a manner. The result of all of this is that Ophelia, his lover, actually turns mad and commits suicide.
Topic: family

The play is thus, very importantly, set off by the appearance of the ghost. He is a sort of catalyst to the subsequent events of the play. Described in Act 1 as a “portentous figure”, the ghost does not fail to fulfil its potential as the initial trigger which led to the chain of events that make up the plot of this play. The significance of the ghost in this Act is therefore highly important, as the ghost’s appearance, words an actions, are the basis on which the rest of the play is built.

Harper Lee entered the literature of the second half of the twentieth century, along with the names of writers of the American South and took a special place there. Describing a remote province with a picturesque landscape, manners, customs, and views, the author skillfully characterizes the life of the American South in her book To Kill a Mockingbird.  Town of Maycomb, Alabama is an old, small city, where it’s always very hot, and all people know each other. Not being an autobiographical book, the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, in many ways, reflects a traditional way of life in the American town of Alabama, in which the writer herself was born and grew up.
Topic: family

The trial is one of the symbols of killing a mockingbird. The trial of the black man Thomas Robinson, because of which people, in conformity with the established foundations are divided into white and black, and therefore into good and bad, is portrayed as a turning issue in the novel. The author does everything to keep the reader in suspense. The experience of the young children of the famous local attorney Atticus Finch, who observed the process, very subtly conveys the author’s relationship to reality.
Topic: family

Everyone knew that the case was deliberately doomed. However, Atticus continues to fight. The boundless sense of duty, honor and an acute sense of justice, make the lawyer take up this matter. He is an honest lawyer and a true gentleman. His life positions cause respect. He not only skillfully defended Robinson but also became one of the symbols of people-fighters against racism. Despite all the efforts of the lawyer, Robinson was convicted. Harper Lee describes the topic of relationship to another person in comparison with a birdie mockingbird. Atticus compared Tom’s death with the senseless killing of songbirds.
Topic: family

To Kill a Mockingbird is a novel about the emergence of the human person. Having mastered the lessons of Mark Twain, who stated that children are “the cleanest and most consistent democrats,” Harper Lee finds her way to show the world of adults through the eyes of a child, without simplifying or impoverishing it. The author puts a little girl in the center of the narrative. Provoking adults to speak and act, she learns for herself lessons of outlook and morality. The world through the eyes of a child is divided into the world of Good and Evil. Any penetration into the adult world and the knowledge that the child receives, observing behavior, can destroy or strengthen the desire for Good. In this connection, it is not difficult to single out two plot lines of the novel. And one of them is “childish,” which is the backdrop of this work since the whole narrative is conducted on behalf of a six-year-old girl, but through the memories of the thirty-year-old Jean-Louise Finch. The other line is “adult,” which reflects the tragic side of the entire population of Maycomb, and is connected with the trial.
Topic: family

An important role in the story is taken by the story of the Boo Radley, who never leaves the house, thereby provoking children’s fantasies. This whole story is shown by the author as a kind of game in which only children participate. With all the truths and crooks, they are trying to rescue a mentally ill person from the house, the whole district was afraid of. This house, shrouded in legend, was bypassed by all the inhabitants of the town. Here, Harper Lee determines the degree of ignorance of the entire population of Maycomb, which relies on wild superstitions and false beliefs. At the end of the novel, he will save the children from the murderer.
Topic: family

The entire narrative of the novel fits within three years. In the initial chapters, we see a six-year-old child, at the end we see a grown-up nine-year-old girl who has already learned something about our life. Against this background, there is a certain rapprochement between “child” and “adult” worlds. This task is masterfully solved by Harper Lee, combining to the end of the novel two plot points of view, which acquire absolute unity. And then, immediately after the curtain, Harper Lee, proceeding from the belief that a person is kind by nature, will say with the words of Atticus Finch: “Almost all people are good when you eventually understand them …”
Topic: family

The family is the main issue that is in our life. Most people dream of having a happy family and the key to family happiness is not so far away. Those who celebrate the golden wedding are always asked the question about the secret of their kin happiness. As a rule, heroes of the jubilee find it difficult to answer. After all, one can not say that their happiness was cloudless. Everyone has problems, but something helped them to overcome these obstacles together and to withstand difficult life situations.
Topic: family

This is my thesis statement and life belief at the same time as any changes that we decide to make in life start with desire, and then there is a decision and the action. It is not enough to want and to decide, it is necessary to do. And this is the main secret of any undertaking. Independent long-term studies were conducted in many countries and at different time periods and they all showed one irrefutable fact. All successful people who have achieved success in different spheres of life – in relationships, in the professional field, in personal development, undertake active actions.
Topic: family

If we are talking about the duration of the marriage and what makes it eternal, I think that family happiness begins with a woman. A man also has his own role, his work to strengthen relationships and create happiness in the kin. But since it is quite difficult to encourage others to make changes or to do something, and to teach and change ourselves is much easier, we begin to build personal and family happiness with ourselves. Nevertheless, the woman is the main force in preserving the kin.
Topic: family

In this case, the strength of the family and the secret of kin happiness lie in the plane of the woman’s thoughts and her deep faith that the man she chose as her husband and with whom she now lives is the same man with whom she can build her own happiness. If there is not faith, there will be no happiness in the family. This faith is the basis of any positive changes in the person of her husband and in kin life. Faith is a power that opens the way to the heart of a man. And this faith must come only from a woman. Conversely, the trigger mechanism for the destruction of the family is the state of the woman and her thoughts that with this person I can not be happy and in general I can live without him.
Topic: family

The second power of a happy marriage is the purity of the woman’s behavior. Let’s return to the biblical immortal virtues, which were defined several thousand years ago and are not actually accepted by modern society. What is meant by purity in behavior? This is not only the absence of physical treason but also the exclusion of flirting. The assumption of flirting comes from the first rule – if a woman admits the thought that with another man she could be happier, she will unconsciously or consciously look for this best option in every man met. And if a woman accepted and recognized her husband as the best man in the world, she will not even want to flirt with other men. She will not have a desire to do it.
Topic: family

Chastity directly determines the amount of happiness in the kin. And it is important to note the fact that the woman thus does not lose anything. She does not deprive herself of anything, devoting her life to only one man. Faithfulness will allow her to deepen relations with her husband. And as a result, she will receive much more love, happiness and other privileges that will come as a consequence of chastity.  A man will feel and understand that his wife is reliable. He will trust her; he will see and feel her impeccable behavior and will be grateful to her for this.
Topic: family

The next strength of harmonious family relations is the reasonableness of a woman. This is when all interpersonal issues are resolved without controversy, wrangling, and disagreement; when a wife is able to achieve her goals by consent, affectionate communication, and obedience. Here psychology is simple. A man is strong in spirit and body by nature, and he can not fight with the weak. He will stop respecting himself. When a woman shows weakness and obedience, he can not fight it, can not resist. And he always agrees.
Topic: family

The wisdom of this experience can be useful to any girl. In any situation, you can at least try to remedy the situation and change everything for the better, but you need to have the knowledge how to do this. Constant training in how to behave in a marriage, how to educate and build relationships with children, how to take one’s role in kin life, will help build a strong relationship and create a happy family. A woman should study these questions. In the opposite case, it will be difficult for her to understand the cause of many failures. The acquisition of knowledge will accumulate experience in her, which is much more important than receiving, for example, economic education or any other. An experience will help her build a harmonious and deep relationship with the kin and relatives. It will help to quickly identify the problem, respond to it and resolve.
Topic: family

Another rule that must be observed to build a happy and harmonious family is not to take out the dirty linen. For some reason in our time it is customary to share details of kin life with friends, relatives or even a psychologist, revealing all the nuances of family life. This is a big mistake since everything that a family lives on must remain within the family. This will help to cultivate power in the family. And if you endure kin happiness outside the family, then this force will gradually decrease, bringing quarrels and conflicts into the family.

Most parents today have a hard time living. They are pressured by society, friends, and acquaintances, own parents, memories, and habits. Teachers, school psychologists, family psychotherapists state that college kids are increasingly feeling the stress associated with school successes. They live in constant tension. Many students should not just study, but also attend extra classes, and perform every task on “excellent” grade. Some parents are aware of this. In conformity with estimates, 31% of them believe that the school provokes stress in the child, 52% say that they themselves are stressed because of school grades of their kids.
Topic: family

Children were asked to choose three out of six things for which they were valued by their parents. The list includes three values relating to the success of schoolchildren, for example, good grades, and the rest were associated with kindness and decency towards other people. Researchers compared the responses of participants to their behavior and academic performance at school. Family’s’ attitude was discovered as the main factor. The study showed that parent’ attitudes toward achievement and kindness directly influenced children’s assessments and their ability to adapt. The way children perceived criticism from their parents was also an important thing. The researchers discovered the following fact. Children whose parents valued achievements more than kindness were more anxious, depressed, had low self-esteem, arranged hysterics and criticized their parents. They behaved worse in school and had problems with studies. Experts say that because of pressure from the parents and the pursuit of achievements, children do not form important social skills necessary in real life.
Topic: family

Parents pressure on their kids in different ways. They are unceremoniously interfering in the personal space of the child, tightly controlling each step, forcing, threatening, bribing or punishing him, in other words, they require order and perfection with all the means they have. They are sure: if you point out the child’s shortcomings and failures, he will try to correct them. But it turns out differently. Children increasingly doubt their own strength, feel guilty and very quickly cease to trust themselves deciding that they are not good enough. But why do parents behave this way? Pressing behavior reflects primarily their own fears and anxieties of parents, fear that they will not have enough time, strength and ability to educate their children. Adults are not sure what will happen tomorrow (with their work, family, and country), and therefore they are trying even harder for the future.
Topic: family

Sometimes teachers also exert pressure. The teacher believes that there is only his subject and there is nothing else, so he sets a huge amount of homework. Students do not always cope with everything and worry about the assessment. Some teachers even forbid correcting these grades!  After all, if a child is interested in languages, he will start reading books and watching movies/series in the language he is studying. If a student is interested in mathematics, then he will analyze at home and go deep into the material he needs. When a child is interested in a particular subject, and he wants to do it, he will do it regardless of time and place. Unfortunately, some teachers think differently, and grades become indicators of academic achievement. Someone worries about them, but some do not. I am very worried about every “bad” evaluation, and because of a large number of experiences, I become depressed like every ordinary person. Of course, this does not mean that one should treat academic progress with indifference. But do not deplete yourself due to the fact that the evaluation of one of the items was not the kind one would like to receive. As in everything in life, it is very important to maintain a balance.
Topic: family

Any evaluation is super-subjective. If the teacher does not realize how to build an educational process without giving out estimates (I heard that there are such teachers), then this is not a child’s problem. If the child received a low rating, this does not mean that he is bad or does something wrong. There can be one other option: the child really started to ignore his studies. In this case, parents should be on the side of the child, but this does not always mean to tell that he is right.  This means keeping the home environment in such a way in which he feels confident, calm and can share what he has in his heart. Maybe the child and the teacher have a difficult relationship. Maybe he did not understand something, or he fell in love and did not have enough time to study the last week. There is no such a thing that a child “just does not want to” learn. There are many reasons. I would like to advise adults to try this situation on themselves. If adults do bad work, they will always find a thousand reasons why they are right, and the boss made a mistake. Why do they act in another way with their kids? After all, they have no one but their parents. They are lonely. Making the child’s life even harder is a strange function of the parents, is not it?
Topic: family

Parents should realize this and try to escape from such a multi-vector pressure. How interesting is the mother’s life, if she believes that the child has no right to get a bad evaluation? How can this be avoided, but remain firm and consistent without destroying the child’s personality? First of all, it is necessary to distinguish the pressing behavior from the demanding. And for this, parents need to understand what they feel when they communicate with the child. Irritation, anger, annoyance or resentment causes an instant (protective) reaction – that is, parents press on the child, seeking from him the unquestioning fulfillment of rules and prohibitions. Persistency arises with a clear understanding of priorities. And then the main thing for it is not evaluation, but curiosity and activity of the child. Being demanding means constantly encouraging him to move forward, considering both strengths and weaknesses of the character. It also means to observe kids’ development, support and protect him when he needs it, and rejoice with him when he acquires new knowledge and skills.
Topic: family

Parents should understand that their child is a peculiar center of the universe in itself. Evaluations are nothing more than a formality. It is for this reason that we hear stories about a student who has never received excellent grades, but now he is at the top of the career ladder and has everything he wants. A student whose parents forced get high marks now is working in a dusty office just to pay off numerous loans. I invite parents and teachers to think is it the life they want for his kids and pupils.

In the film Juno directed by Jason Reitmen the relationship between the main character Juno, and Mark is very important. This relationship helps the viewer learn more about Juno’s journey to motherhood and in each scene we are shown her development to maturity. Juno’s relationship with Mark influences the story line and helps the viewer understand Juno’s character and why Juno makes many of her decisions. The decision she faces is that of a pregnant 16 year old. The way she views her friend, Mark, develops and changes as she matures on her journey to motherhood.
Topic: family

From the beginning of the film Juno has a clear picture of the perfect parent for her child. Mark fits what she is looking for ideally. He is a fun and relaxed man. He is into the same music as Juno, plays guitar and has terrific taste in horror films. When Juno is looking though the penny saver for adoptive parents she says “ I just can’t give my baby to someone who describes themselves as “wholesome.
Topic: family

” I am looking for something a little edgier.” This is when she sees Mark and Vanessa Lorring’s advertisement, which is exactly what Juno, is looking for. When first visiting the Lorring’s Juno and Mark play on his guitars, instantly bonding. Right from the start Mark is Juno’s preferred parent. I learnt through this that at the start of her pregnancy Juno has an innocent idea of parenting.
Topic: family

From the first time Juno meets Mark she shows an immense interest in him as a Father. She starts finding excuses to go around and see him, dropping in for the slightest reason. As their relationship grows they start watching movies together, ringing each other and recommending songs. At this stage she is firmly of the view that Mark would make a perfect Father for her baby. When talking about Mark Juno says, “It was cool, he is kind of cool.” At this point the audience may be questioning why a man that much older than Juno has so much in common with her, and questioning if Juno’s views on Mark are realistic as Bren does.
Topic: family

The reactions and comments of other characters help Juno to consider her opinions in a different light. When Juno arrives home from Mark’s late at night Brenda is concerned about Juno. “That was a mistake Juno. Mark is a married stranger. You over stepped a boundary.” At first Juno is upset and annoyed about Brenda telling her off and treating her like a child. She reacts like a typical teenager, not seeing what the audience is already questioning, that spending time with Mark is inappropriate. Brenda is acting like a caring and mature parent, which contrasts with how Juno is behaving.
Topic: family

As the movie progresses and Juno gets to know Mark better she realizes that Vanessa may be the stronger parent. From the beginning Juno shows a great interest in Mark and doesn’t pay much attention to Vanessa. When Juno sees Vanessa at the mall playing with a little kid, she realizes how great a Mother she would make. The scene shows Vanessa in a high angle wide shot running around with a young child who is completely engrossed and captivated by Vanessa’s company. We then see a close up on Juno’s face, the director uses this close up to highlight that Juno is fixated on Vanessa with an expression of awe and happiness, at the realization that Vanessa is going to make a wonderful Mother. Because of her love for children, you can see this by her interaction. Juno’s shift in judgment also affects her view on Mark as the attributes she values in a parent start to mature.
Topic: family

While dancing we see a mid shot, Juno’s tummy is touching Mark and he comments “something’s between us”. Although there is a baby physically between them he is also suggesting there is chemistry and attraction between them. This is when Mark tells Juno he is leaving Vanessa. Juno is furious and this is a turning point in the film as Juno realizes Mark needs to grow up and is too immature to father her child. This is when Juno realizes that Vanessa is certainly going to make a better and reliable parent for her child. I learnt that through her pregnancy she becomes more mature and she begins thinking of her baby’s needs rather than her own.
Topic: family

As Juno spends more time with Mark we learn his strengths and weaknesses. Juno matures as a person and realizes Mark wouldn’t be responsible or grown up enough to make a stable Father. When Juno starts realizing this she starts seeing all the positive traits in Vanessa from a maternal perspective. Juno’s development as a person mirrors her physical development in her pregnancy. This is shown in the movie when Juno makes a selfless decision purely for the baby’s welfare and chooses the right parent to bring up her child, while she is in the advanced stages of her pregnancy.

The topic I chose to write my essay about is being an early childhood teacher because that is what I am studying to be. I have also learned a lot of interesting facts while doing my research. Being an early childhood teacher makes it so the teacher is also a guide to the children they are teaching and is also able to teach the children new things, and keep them safe from any harm that could come their way. As a teacher, you should find some new experiences for the children so they can have fun learning new things and also learn quickly.
Topic: family

Having patience, stamina and a personality to work in a room full of energetic children every day is also a great quality for a teacher to have. Some ways to become an effective early childhood teacher are: “have a sound knowledge of subject matter, take a personal interest in each student, and show enthusiasm with students.” Some personal characteristics that are also good to have as an early childhood teacher are “passion, perseverance, willingness to take risks, pragmatism, patience, flexibility, respect and creativity.”
Topic: family

Having all of the characteristics I listed can make you a good teacher and can also make it easier for parents to trust you with their children. Some more characteristics an early childhood teacher could have are “high energy, a desire to learn, and a good sense of humor.” This will show the children and their parents that you enjoy teaching, instead of showing a negative side of you making it seem like you dislike teaching their children. What I have learned about while writing this essay is the benefits people can have while studying for their associates degree to teach young children, all of the things needed to know when a person becomes a teacher and how stressful it can be.

1. What do you think is the contribution of Rizal’s parents’ qualities of the shaping of his personality that made him later hero? When Jose Rizal is still a child his mother taught him to read a book even if he is only 3 years old of age at that time. His father is called to be “haciendero”, “mercado” and capitanes of the town which they were born. Rizal described his father as “a model of fathers” because his father Don Francisco gave all their needs just to have a good life even if building and giving them a library that that will help to their education.
Topic: family

At that time, it is difficult to have a library because of it also represents your status in life. His father has a personality of a strong, brave and has a leadership attitude. From his father he inherited traits of becoming a hero like sense of dignity, self-respect, seriousness, self-possession, and a strong character. While his mother, Doña Theodora is brilliant, intelligent, caring, lovable wife and parent to her family that derived Rizal to become temperament of poet, dreamer, bravery for sacrifice and a genius.

The story is all about the mother moth and her child. Mother moth told the baby moth not to go in the fire because it is very dangerous, despite of the ignorance of the baby moth he ignored the warning of his mother, and he went to the fire. He flies and played around the fire. His eagerness to go near to the fire leads him to get burned and die. This story was never forgotten by Rizal when he was growing older and become a hero at his time. Rizal became a courageous and a bravery man at his time because of the traits that he develops in his growing stage with the help of his family especially his mother and father.
Topic: family

There was a time when his mother caught by “guardia civil” and become a prisoner because she was accused to be a murderer. I think it is one of the starts why Rizal begins to question the government of Spaniards at that time. There are no investigation held at the sight and rashly her mother caught by guards because she is just accused by someone. Rizal’s parents have a majority contribution why is he became a hero, first there is no Jose P. Rizal because of his parents. Rizal Heroism is all because of his parents. Maybe his travels, friends, wisdom, intellectual aspect and everything he discovers while he is growing up and taking his adventures is just a half of share while Jose Rizal exist to become a hero of the Philippines.
Topic: family

2. From your perspective, do you think you need to study Rizal up to these days? Studying Rizal’s life is a nice thing to do, remembering a applying on how Rizal became a hero in our country, First thing, it is said that studying Rizal’s life, teachings and writings, Filipino youth will be able to gain incorruptibility, confidence, direction, courage and determination to move forward in their journey towards an abundant life, this is according to Garcia (2005). So proclaiming and implementation of this law has a good intention for students and also for the citizens of the Philippines. It is true that there is a waste of money, time and effort of implementing this law because of the books to be published, libraries to be build, professors and teachers to translate every detail of Rizal’s work but all of this has a good product for us.
Topic: family

Rizal’s works, his experience, his attitude. His love for the country can make all Filipino citizens idolize him and become inspiration of us. Our freedom from the Spanish colonials, our fighting spirit of becoming free from the conquerors is because Rizal opens the eyes of every Filipino. He died because he loves Filipino people and Philippines. Filipinos was determined because Rizal waken up every Filipino so there is no doubt why we study his life, it is beginning of our freedom, why we live like this today, free from foreigner’s cruelty, but it is sad to think about that many of Filipinos forgot about how Rizal save our country from conquerors which is the Spaniards.
Topic: family

Rizal’s life is an inspiration for us, knowing him of being a hero, a full of wisdom man, an intellectual man, a dedicated to his country and family, he is truly amazing and worth it of becoming a national hero of the Philippines and become a part of our history and also become a part of our life even though he is not present now in our life at least we accompanied him as an important person lived in our pearl of the orient sea, the Philippines. So my answer for the question is yes, we need to study Rizal’s life in order to gain more inspiration, dedication, ambition, love to our country, wisdom and all of the traits that Rizal gain when he was alive and fighting for the sake of our country.

3. What d you think greatest advantage given to Rizal by his travel? Cite concrete example and defend your answer? Rizal’s travel was the biggest contribution for his success in education, ideals, and his eagerness to fulfill his dreams, goals and vision. This achievement made his friend from the other country admire him so much like Professor Ferdinand Blumentritt, an Austrian Linguist and the Director of Ateneo de Leitmeritz, he called Rizal as the “Greatest Filipino” and “the greatest of the Malayan race”. Praising by that word is so much heart whelming for Rizal. His first travel to Europe is the beginning of his true adventure in his life, socializing in other races and introduce him to the other as a Filipino is one of a proof that he is proud to be a Filipino even though Filipinos at that time was popular of being an Indio but he is proud to represent himself as a Filipino after all.

When he was staying in every places, there is no time that he studied their language, One of that is the Germany, this is one of his achievements that he know how to speak in German language, with the of his friends like Dr, Feodor Jagor, who is a German scientist, Karl Ernest Schweigger, well-known German ophthalmologist. This travels broaden his mind very much, his knowledge, his talents, and even though his determination to finish his first novel, “Noli Me tangere”.

When he on the travels he finished his novel, “Noli Me tangere” and published it. This means that his travels help him to realize and to think about our country’s position at that time. His travel made Him famous, Socialize and meet true friends that helps him to become a full of wisdom hero. And his travels made the Philippines famous not to be called as “indio” but also a country that has people with great and amazing talents and knowledge.

1. 1 Theoretical Background and Definitions The theoretical issue regarding essentialist versus social constructionist motherhood is called into question in this thesis. What is useful here is Diana Fuss’ definitions of essentialism and social constructionism for woman. She defines essentialism as: a belief in true essence—that which is most irreducible, unchanging, and therefore constitutive of a given person or thing… In feminist theory… essentialism can be located in appeals to a pure or original femininity, a female essence, outside the boundaries of the social and thereby untainted (though perhaps repressed) by a patriarchal order.
Topic: family

(2) She also defines constructionism, suggesting that: Constructionism, articulated in opposition to essentialism and concerned with its philosophical refutation, insists that essence is itself a historical construction… constructionists are concerned above all with the production and organization of differences, and they therefore reject the idea that any essential or natural givens precede the processes of social determination. (2-3) Fuss also contends that, “The difference in philosophical positions can be summed up by Ernest Jones’s question: ‘Is woman born or made?
Topic: family

Certain generalized assumptions are made about motherhood. Because of the special social condition depicted in the thesis, it’s hard to say that social constructionism or essentialism decides the motherhood. From what we read in the novel, we could speculate that the constructionism and essentialism may co-exist and influence each other. The two concepts may be interchangeable. Fuss proposes that “essentialism is essential to social constructionism” in that one must note the correlations that apply to the mothers from two culturally diverse backgrounds (1).

Of the mothers to be analyzed regarding the breakdown of stereotyped mothering, some serve as “othermothers”, or non-biological mothers who take on, in whole or in part, the responsibility of caring for another human being (O’Reilly 3-4). The definition of mother expands to include more than the concept of giving birth to another human being. Thus, women as othermothers can demonstrate as much motherly influence as the biological mothers themselves, sometimes more.
Topic: family

These “othermothers” can perform the roles of parental nurturer and life-supporter, in addition to or in the imitation of the biological mothering. By carrying out the responsibility of mother, they also affirms their positions in society, and their existence is also vital to the preservation of culture and thus to the “survival of the tribe” (O’Reilly 8), because they must raise, shape decisively, and influence the decision-making process of other individual or individuals, as well as feed, clothes, and protect that individual or individuals.

And it is the mother who defines that process, whether within or beyond society’s moral standards. These “othermothers” appear and exist in society because of the social requests. With them, orphans and other children who can’t get biological mothers’ protection in their growing period for some reasons could be protected as well. In this novel, two types of “othermothers” are mainly depicted. One is the othermother whose role and responsibility is assigned and forced to take by slave-owners, such as Nan.
Topic: family

Slave-owners don’t want their adult slave women to spend much time on taking care of their children, so they assign one slave woman to take care of all the children, while the slave mothers have to work at other places soon after they give birth. The other type is the women who take the role of mother voluntarily, based on the situation request or personal thoughts, such as Baby Suggs, who mothers the whole black community after she is bought free by her son Hale. Othermothers have been paid certain attention and exert great influence in this novel. The concept of protection is the common factor for mothers and othermothers.

In Beloved, Sethe’s mother protects Sethe from accepting and tolerating the socially acceptable confines of slavery at that time, and thus, when Sethe has her own children, she too protects them from slavery on her own ways through her own definition of protection. Because this is what Sethe’s mother must do, and in turn, Sethe does the same for Denver, purposely or inadvertently. Sethe does learn how to protect herself and her children, and Denver ultimately learns how to save herself and her mother. Thus, othermothers in the novel are as vital to the text as the biological mothers.

The people in the world that we live in are extremely diverse, in terms of the nationalities, religions, gender classifications and physical abilities. Social workers must have a clear understanding of the consequences of diversity and difference and the mechanisms of oppression and discrimination as they relate to human development. The range of different ethnic and cultural backgrounds that social workers will practice in is huge. Because of this, social workers must have an understanding of the values and attitudes of a multitude of different cultures as well as an understanding of their own attitudes and values towards diversity.

This is when he began to realize who he was. Eric says that he had several opportunities to meet with U. S. soldiers and their children and that he noticed the differences then. I asked Eric what he considered to be the positive and negative aspects of being Korean. Eric replied that he believes that Asian people are the best academically and are good at working with numbers and studying. In contrast, he believes that this makes up for a lack of physical athletic abilities. I asked Eric what he believes are some of the special characteristics of being Korean. Eric replied that the most special characteristic of being Korean is the emphasis on respect of elders. He states that he has seen a lack of respect for elders in most Western cultures that would never be tolerated in Korea. Eric stated that he has not experienced racism since he has been in the United States; however he believes that there is a bias against people of Asian descent in the business world.

III. General Description of the Interview and Setting ( Ms. Qi Mao) The next interview took place on February 19 and was with Ms. Qi Mao. Ms. Mao is a 31 year old student and describes herself as a member of China’s Han nationality, which is the largest nationality of the population of China. The interview took place in the lobby of the Madonna English Service Language Department at approximately 12:00 pm. English Service Language Director Ms. Hadeel Betti helped in selecting a candidate for the interview. I was shocked at her age of 31 years by her tiny frame as she approached for the interview. She was very pleasant, very polite and eager to smile at every appropriate moment.

Ms. Mao describes herself as Chinese of the Han nationality. The Han nationality dominates the ethnicity of the population of China. According to everyculture.com,” China is the most populous nation on earth; in 2000, the estimated population was 1,261,832,482 (over one-fifth of the world’s population). Of these people, 92 percent are Han Chinese; the remaining 8 percent are people of Zhuang, Uyhgur, Hui, Yi, Tibetan, Miao, Manchu, Mongol, Buyi and Korean” (everyculture.com, 2013). According to Ms. Mao, Chinese people who live in the far south of China belong to what she describes as the South Asia race. Ms. Mao earned a degree in journalism in China and has worked as a journalist there for some time. She stated that she wanted to expand her knowledge and learn new things. Her major at Madonna University is business. She has no brothers or sisters and states that this is the result of China’s one child law.

According to the Journal of Politics and law, “The Birth Control Law of PRC restricts married, urban couples to having only one child, and rural couples to having 2 children if the first is female, while ethnic minorities are not restricted” (Chen, B., 2012). She currently lives with a host family and enjoys playing with the family’s children. She also states that the only family that she has in the U. S. are her uncle a few cousins that currently attend Madonna University. Ms. Mao states that most of East Asia populations are Mongolian, whom her people traditionally refer to as the yellow race. Later she says that she has been in the U. S. for 5 months. When asked what she recalled when she first recognized her ethnicity, she replied that most Chinese children know who and what they are at a very young age. She tells me that she learned English at 3 years old and that this is when her teachers and parents introduced her to the Han nationality.
Topic: family

Ms. Mao states that many people describe members of the Han nationality as having thin black hair, black eyes and yellow skin. She stated that Chinese people usually do not discuss cultural issues because unless you travel to the out most reaches of the country, there is only one culture, the Han. The most negative aspect of being Chinese for Ms. Mao is the difficulty in getting a passport for travel to the U. S. She believes that this is because of two reasons first a bias against the people of China, secondly the Chinese government’s strict policy to know absolutely everything you do and everywhere you go at all times.
Topic: family

One of the most positive aspects of being Chinese according to Ms. Mao is the closeness of the families. She states that the relationships of Chinese people are closer and deeper than of any other culture. She believes that this is a major strength of the Chinese culture and that it separates it from most. However, she also believes that sometimes these relationships can become smothering, because someone in the family or someone who knows the family is usually to be found in every aspect of Chinese life. Research has shown that the, “business world of the Asian American is strongly linked to family. The Asian family run business is a constant in many communities” (asianamericanalliance.com, 2013).

From school life to social life she says that the Chinese relationships are extremely tight. She tells me that she has not experienced direct racism and has been treated well by most that she has encountered since being in the U.S. Ms. Mao tells me that the Chinese do not have what westerners call religion because the majority feels as if they do not need it. According to her, most of her population would be classified as Buddhists but they would never refer to it as a religion. She says that generally, her people do not openly discuss their worship practices and that the society is far too conservative that.

One of the similarities in the strengths of both individuals is the strong bond with family and the respect that they have for their elders. The opinions of both individuals vary in terms of how they view western family relationships. Ms. Mao believes that some women in western cultures are not as attentive to family needs. Mr. Munn believes that there is a lack of respect for family elders. New learnings regarding the strengths of their family relationships include the complex and intense bond between extended family members. Apparently in both Korean and Chinese cultures, children are introduced to the importance of close family relationships at an early age. Research has shown that the children of the Korean culture are exposed to family values and traditions when very young. A web article entitled everyculture.com states, “Obedience, cooperation, respect for the elders, and filial piety are the major values inculcated in a child’s early years, most children receive traditional gender role socialization from early childhood” (www.everyculture.com, 2013).
