Although children are going to school, it is at home and the surrounding neighborhood that also teaches life lessons. Being isolated and surrounded by homeless, drugs, and gang members will promote bad behaviors and violence that the children may learn from watching. Parents are sometimes helpless not being able to shield their children from the harsh reality.

Families had the chance to pick up to 8 social skills they wish their child could develop this year. They were also given the opportunity to write one of their own. Five surveys wrote their own social skill for their child. Some of those skills that were listed were, confidence, “Feels responsible for other students”, and ……. Out of the twenty surveys that were returned, half of the families marked listening as a skill they wish their child could improve on.

For as many years as anyone can remember, my family has hunted. This tradition is takes its main roots in Sweden. The earliest history that anyone in our family knows begins with my Great Great Grandfather Bengt Bengtson. He lived in Munkfors, Sweden and worked as a lumber company’s hunter. He was appointed to this job because of his exceptional shooting ability. He also used his expertise to provide sustenance for his family. The necessity and skills of hunting were taught to his son Gustav Bengtson. Great Grandpa Gus immigrated to the United States in 1926 at the age of 25 to start a new life. The practice of hunting was still an integral part of life, even in America. My mom’s paternal grandfather, John, was not an immigrant, but he was

My parents are both from different countries, My mother was born in Mexico while my father was born in El Salvador. After coming to America both were enrolled by my grandparents too Lee High School. Both of my parents did not know english at all so they had to take ESL classes which filled most of their high school schedule. In those classes they interacted and formed a connection between each other, shortly after that they began dating and going out to different areas just to have a couple more minutes together. Their connection grew even greater which led my father to presenting my mother to his family. At the age of eighteen my mother was impregnated and decided to drop out of highschool; my father followed her idea and dropped out as well

A family health assessment is a significant instrument in conveying a health care plan for a family. This paper will discuss the nurse’s role in family assessment and how this task is performed. By the use of family focused open ended questions, 11 functional health patterns were covered. The health patterns were values and health perception, nutrition, sleep and rest, elimination, activities and exercise, cognitive, sensory-perception, self-perception, role relationship, sexuality, and coping. This principle is known as the Gordon’s functional health patterns. Family health assessment defines the assessment of actual and potential problems of individuals (Gordon, 1994). This assessment tool included 11 systematic principles for data collection of the family, and assists the nurses to develop a nursing diagnosis and appropriate interventions. Using Gordon’s functional health patterns, this paper will summarize the findings of each health pattern as well as the family based nursing diagnosis of each assessment. This paper will also discuss different health promotion strategies along with web-based resources, also including a system based theory guide in family assessment.

Throughout the semester, I have experienced the world from a different standpoint while also being able to connect my similarities with J.G., my lab partner. The way our lives are so similar yet so different really represents the world we will be eventually working in; from the personal definition of illness and health, to the family backgrounds and traditions. Although J.G. and I do not have a vast culture, we do have certain principles that define us in the way we grew up and live today.

Although both societies established their own belief on ideology, ethics, and traditions. Nevertheless, a traditional society’s foundation built on the extended family with each family considers as the welfare state. Consequently, the family is completely responsible for their well-being and offspring’s success. Conversely, the government is exclusively responsible for many of the services in modern society. Therefore, the success of the individual solely depends on the person rather than their families. The purpose of this essay is to compare and contrast the important distinction between traditional and modern society. Furthermore, this paper will demonstrate the different beliefs held by each society and show many distinct comparisons between the two societies, along with the writer’s sympathetic perspective against tradition or modernity in light of the foregoing.
