¶ … Parenting Education
Effects of the new fathers network on first-time fathers' parenting self-efficacy and parenting satisfaction during the transition to parenthood.
The authors study first-time fathers and how they parent, and two key points include their testing, which looked at fathers who had no outside intervention in the first 8 weeks of their new babies lives, to fathers who interacted with others though the online New Fathers Network. They found that self-efficacy and satisfaction was higher than the group without intervention, and that fathers found the online group extremely helpful. It was surprising to learn that often fathers are dissatisfied with their parents and with their role as fathers. It was not surprising that they do not often reach out for help. I would definitely recommend this article to others, although it was a bit scholarly at times.
*Aging Families
Assistance to aging parents and parents-in-law: Does lineage affect family allocation decisions?
The article looks at how families deal with aging, and how they assist aging parents. Two key points are that daughters are more likely to provide assistance to parents, that minorities are more likely to provide assistance, and that was a surprising or interesting fact to learn. I would recommend this article to others because it says something about our society and how we treat our elders.
*Family Stress & Coping
Military families under stress: Implications for family life education."
The authors identify three types of stress that occurs in military families, relocation, separation, and reunion. They also offer ways to help treat these types of stress, including completing a separation plan and assistance with relocation plans. One of the surprising aspects of this article was not that these things were stressful, but that the spouses have social responsibilities back home that are in line with the rank of their spouse in the military. That would seem to add additional stress to the situation. I would certainly recommend this article to others, especially those in the military.

0%), cohabiting parents (61.8%), cohabiting stepparents (71.0%), and married stepparents (65.2-16%). Recall that when we consider all children, we find that the food insecurity rates are significantly lower for children living with married stepparents than for children with cohabiting parents or single-mother families. Finally, food insecurity rates are significantly lower for lower-income children living with their married biological/adoptive parents (46.8%) than for all other groups considered. The share of lower-income children who are
) The State of Education in Third World Countries Third World countries, by definition, include the poorest and the most underdeveloped. Most of them, therefore, are severely lacking in most development indicators including education and literacy levels. So even though, it is now universally recognized that education is the most cost-effective factor in improving the quality of life, both at the individual and at the collective level, millions of people in poor,
There are many of these individuals, and it is time that this is changed. Parents often look away from these kinds of problems, or they spend their time in denial of the issue because they feel that their child will not be harmed by parental involvement with drugs or alcohol. Some parents have parents that were/are addicts themselves, and some are so busy with their lives that they do not
Parent's Selection for Supplementary Tutoring Centre in Hong Kong - Primary School Level With reference to the above discussion, it can be apparently observed that the education industry in Hong Kong is quite expanded. However, the performance of students and educational growth in the country can be observed to be weakening which indicates that the education sector in Hong Kong requires to be facilitated significantly within a short-run period.

Divorce It is estimated that over one million children in the United States are victims of parental divorce each year, and half of all children born in wedlock this year will see their parents divorce before they reach their eighteenth birthday (Rector pp). Robert Rector points out that divorce generally reduces the income of the child's primary household, and for families that were not poor before the divorce, the drop
