In May 1781, French Admiral de Barras arrived in Rhode Island to take command of the blockaded fleet there and brought word that Admiral de Grasse would be bringing the long-awaited French fleet later in the year. General George Washington met with French Lt. General Rochambeau to plan operations up to and after Admiral de Grasse arrived. They decided to operate around New York City where Lt.

“Why do people give into stereotypes other people give them? Why would you ever let someone else's negative thoughts dictate how you’re going to live your life?”(Rodriguez 143) A memoir called The Pregnancy Project is an inside look in daily life of Gaby Rodriguez faking her pregnancy for a school project. The novel is full of heartbreak, some humor, break-downs, and especially drama. The memoir has a good insight and it contains many details in the beginning but it seems like she just gave up with details near the end. Even though the book lacks detail, I recommend this book to teen girls that are in high school or even college because it is very inspiring.…

“How Many Fathers Are Best for a Child?”, by Meredith F. Small is an article about multiple paternity. This article addresses a tribe in Venezuela who believe that their children have multiple parents. Their beliefs are that after conception, a mother should continue to have sex as much as possible. The mothers often have sex with many partners because it is impossible for the husband have all the sex required to help build the fetus. These other partners are then referred to as secondary fathers and are required to help provide for the child. The original father, however, usually doesn’t know about the other fathers, because they don’t agree with wives lying down with other men. As the Western culture becomes more prevalent in their culture, the idea of multiple paternity is beginning to fade or become more discreet because Westerns do not approve of it.…

There have been many studies about gender roles in a marriage. The wife seems to do a lot. Women feel sometimes they do too much. Married couples should be able to work together. Sometime when the wife does everything it puts a constraint on the marriage. A marriage not only needs to survive, but thrive. In a marriage a husband and wife should be able share the same roles as needed. Society has a perceived notion of this. Everything today in a marriage should be able to be shifted back and forth as needed. This is all evidence that a marriage should be between two people who are willing to share all family responsibilities. It is a married couple’s responsibility to take control of any major problems they may have prior to marriage if possible.…
Later in 1992 the case of Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, where Pennsylvania wanted to regulate the abortion industry, Kennedy changed his vote joining the majority (Lewis, T. 2015). His argument was that people have the right to liberty and liberty encompasses “the abortion decision” (Lewis, T. 2015). Whit this decision Kennedy allowed woman the right to terminate their pregnancy.…
Mothers should help the father also to cope up with his new role so that he also feels the stress involved during the child rearing process. Daddy dear can carry the baby in a sling-carrier and go for a nature walk or maybe shopping. Physical closeness naturally helps to bond with a child. Involve in diaper change and night feeds when the mom can take some rest. You can also divide your time and share some responsibilities as that will also…
“Why do some men who once prodded their girlfriends towards pregnancy end up greeting the news with threats, denials, abandonment, and sometimes physical violence?” (7). It is a shame to see that men influence and persuade their couple to have a baby but in the end basically they are not ready to be a father so just physical and verbal abuse the girl. “Many men do not cope with the stress of a pregnancy well” (57). The other outcome is that the relationship transform to a “magical moment” because of the birth a child. Supposedly having a baby can help bring fix the problem that most relationships are having today. To me this a total lie because if the relationship is having trouble staying alive what makes them think that bringing a child into the world is going to make the relationship stable and good…
The section that really interested me was the Prescription and Nonprescription Drugs. Being pregnant, I have the decision if whether or not I want to do natural birth or prepared birth. I have been reading the good and bad about doing it. Something as simple as that and people nowadays have no problem drinking, smoking, and taking hard drugs while pregnant. Knowing that there is a precious life relying on you and your body why would you not take care of yourself. Now I am not dissing on people that have done that in the past but it is just people should really think. My mom drank and smoked when I was in the womb and I was diagnosed with fetal alcohol syndrome when I was younger. It has been a struggle to overcome all the obstacles.…
The conflict between pregnant women and the workplace has intensified as more women enter the workforce and take on roles which were previously predominantly held by men.
