October Baby Sociology

The story ‘The Cradle Will Fall’ is a very intense story with lots of twist and turns.

Figurative language is used to emphasize Cassie and her emotions in her experiences and interactions and how she learns from that. Epiphany is used to convey how both Cassie and Stacey learned from their mistakes and simultaneously grew from said mistakes. Many other characters in this book go through an experience they could learn from, but don’t learn from it (e.g. T.J.). But, Stacey and Cassie, thanks to their parents they learn from their mistakes and experiences and get a life lesson along with it. Taylor's book displays a variety of themes but the most prominent theme is that making mistakes is part of life, and is okay, but it is important that you learn from those mistakes and grow from

One night the Richardson’s went out and asked Mary and her mother to watch Alyssa.

In Time is a film set in the future that I believe best represents the theme of class. Counting down minutes is taken to a whole new level in this futuristic film. Disease is nonexistent and the only concern in which the population faces is what to do with their time. Humans are engineered to stop ageing at twenty-five and our given just a year longer to live, unless they work for extra time. The main character Will Salas is accused of murder and also of stealing extra time from those he’s murdered. In short Will must find a way to prove his innocence and take down the retched system that the oppressed hate so much. The film aired the 28th of October 2011, and stared actor/musician Justin Timberlake.

The movie “Babies” was a beautiful film I loved it I actually watched it three times and could not look away it was a very eye opening documentary for me. It is about cultures and differences within them it was truly amazing seeing the different cultures and there parenting methods. I was truly shocked that these four babies are in four very different cultures but all of them were reaching their milestones and developing all around the same time. I would have never thought that the parenting styles would be so similar to each other. In the documentary each child was loved from their parents and family. Each family was very different but all still spent time with there baby and loved them. The film starts from them being born till they are one-year old it shows you how they develop from culture to culture. It shows attachment styles in all four cultures and the results were surprising.

Lastly, Erica is an eleven year old girl who takes drugs to try to mask the pain from living her miserable life. Also, she has sex with a sixteen year old boy, and thinks she is in love and does not use any contraceptives and gets pregnant. After becoming pregnant, the father bails and wants nothing to

Alexandra Tsiaras came up with a phenomenal way of describing conception to birth in his interview he did for Ted Talk. There were several things and little details that I truthfully did not know happened so fast during a woman’s pregnancy. It amazes me how people can go through with abortion after watching a video like Conception to Birth. Alexandra Tsiara’s visuals on conception to birth show a whole new outline of how fast a baby becomes a human, and that makes it that much more precious.

The motion picture “Juno” stars a protagonist which faces multiple consequences due to an unplanned pregnancy. The movie, like the novel present themes revolving around teenage decision making. The movie is solidly based through the experiences of a pregnant teenage girl, the protagonist Juno.

Porter begins the story with Miranda and her brother Paul exploring a graveyard while out hunting. As they continue with their hunt, Paul shoots a rabbit that is about to give birth. Paul proceeds to carefully slit the dead rabbit open revealing her young unborn babies. This moment is an epiphany for young Miranda as she understands the meaning of rebirth and the cycle of life and death. Miranda later reflects upon this incident years later in a foreign city’s busy bazaar and is reminded of the event that transformed her from an innocent child to a more experienced and knowledgeable young woman.

Swinton begins Raging with Compassion with the story of a child’s sudden death. His neighbor calls, frantic, to say that his 11-year-old dropped dead while walking home. Swinton identifies this as the moment he realized “something was fundamentally wrong with the way I had been conceptualizing and dealing with the problem of evil and the reality of suffering” (10). I, also, had a similar moment of realization, also because of a child’s death. In October 2016, my sister Cate was 3 weeks away from delivering her first child when they discovered that the baby’s heart had stopped beating—Hannah had died. All the clichés and platitudes about how “God needed her home” and “everything happens for a reason” were worthless at best and fundamentally wrong at worst. There were no words for the pain our family felt, and I was grateful that for the most part people did not try to give us words. However, there still was the temptation by some to explain away the tragedy, or defend God in the midst of it.

In this movie, Juno, it features a junior teen confronted by an unplanned pregnancy by her classmate, Paulie Bleeker.

One thing we don’t see in the film about the lives of the baby is their developmental stages. We don’t see when the babies in the different countries crawl, walk, and talk. The film somewhat portrayed the baby accomplishments but we don’t know at what point each baby started to do these things.The
