Analysis Of Dr. Meeker's Your Kids At Risk
Personally, I cannot offer any constructive criticism of Dr. Meeker's work of, "Your Kids at Risk." The content is meticulous regarding the content and this intent should be praised. Dr. Meeker should be thanked for her time and resources to such an outstanding compilation of information which can transcend to other cultures; thereby, building bridges to protect children today and in the future.
I suppose I could play Devil's Advocate by sharing the straw man fallacies of a couple of my liberal acquaintances who questioned the context of "The Family." The following are two examples (in a nutshell):
Liberal #1: Dr. Meeker is unrealistic regarding our present worldly status quo. Kids are going to have sex, you can't stop them. It is best

    Structural and Developmental Assessment of the G Family

    A family is composed of “two or more persons who are linked together by intimate association, resources, and values” (Bomar, 2004). It is whomever the individual decides provides for their physical and emotional needs and considers to be in their family. As for the G family, they would be considered a nuclear family. Mr. and Mrs. G are a married couple with four young children, E, age ten, J, age eight, B, age six, and A, age four. They live in the suburbs of Charlotte, N.C., describe their economic standing as upper middle class, and consider their race and ethnicity as Indian (Asian). When I posed the question to Mr. and Mrs. G of whom do you consider as your family, they both replied each other and their children. Each individual child also replied that their parents and siblings are considered their family.…

    Jeffery Kluger's Article Preventive Parenting For Time Magazine

    Perfect parenting techniques. What is it? Where is it? And how much does it cost? These are questions that many parents long to find and many scientists spend their whole lives trying to study. Long story short, there is not a standard parenting technique that is perfect. Every child is different so parenting techniques have to differ to match their child’s personality. Although parenting techniques differ in so many ways, the popular press and empirically researched both seem to agree that supportive parenting is the key in upbringing children.…

    Sociological Perspectives - Family

    Families, what is the term family? What does it mean? Who decides what makes up a family? The definition of family means “A fundamental social group in society typically consisting of one or two parents and their children” (www.thefreedictionary.com). This might include anyone related to by blood or by adoption such as: step parents, grandparents acting as parents, and even brothers and sisters sometimes sharing the same household. The term family has been believed to coincide with the word “marriage”. If you were to have a family, you were also thought to have a husband or wife. This was thought to be the norm for many centuries. This was named the “institutional family”. But the word family has been reinvented. A family can consist of single parent family, step family, or a first marriage family. It seems that in all societies the first major agent of socialization for most individuals is the family. The role of the American family is much the same as in any other country. Each family member has to fulfill his or her own part. The mass media will have an influence on the family’s role. For instance, the media has portrayed men to be thought of as the “bread-winner”. To more or less support the family. This family type was atypical of the American family.…

    Sex Education and Children

    The moral issues that were once acceptable are now at the mercy to the sexual revolution and the medical ramifications. “Adults have one foot in the Victorian era while kids are in the middle of a worldwide pandemic” complains pediatrician Karen Hein, of Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City (May 1993). She has seen her share of teens infected with HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases pass through the hospital. “There’s something wrong,” sex educator Sol Gordon said, “with a country that says, sex is dirty, save it for someone you love” (May 1993). Children need to know birth control, safer sex and abstinence are choices. One message all the programs are trying to convey is for the children to learn what sex education is needed, and choose to wait. The moral issues of sex education and, we have the highest record of young people having sex in this country. There is one point everyone agrees in this debate that is going on is sex educations is…
