Growing up I know I have had my fair share of arguments with my brothers, whether it be about who gets to watch their show or who gets to be player 1, regardless of the situation I knew that we would grow out of our rivalries and mature. Similarly in both books they were able to get pass their rivalries and find peace in the end although it took some time. Then in both books we see siblings feuding with each other, what they’re arguing over may be different, but with each new argument that arises we see each sibling crawling for the edge over the other. Although the context is different in each piece of literature we can see that the sibling’s argument is sparked by a parent’s preference for one child over the other and the actual reason for their disagreement is miniscule in actual meaning.…

For my paper I decided to take a look at two movies that I highly enjoy watching Starship Troopers and Pride and compare and contrast them with a theory that we have learned this semester. I chose these films not only for their stark differences in plot, but for more importantly the various ways male characters are depicted in these films. I will be analyzing the bulk of male characters in each of these movies through the eyes of the masculine theory. As you know the masculine theory deals with the various ways that male roles are depicting in the film and sometimes can even be used to see how woman are depicted in films if they are depicted in a masculine way. When analyzing a film this way you need to look at how males are represented in…
The Con team was very persuasive because they presented more evidence as to why “Employment-at-Will” is not a good social policy. One strong point is that they gave credible data by going into the history of employment and the laws derived from it. They also presented how employment laws differ in other countries. We find that methodology to be excellent because they took extra steps to give the class the background information necessary to defend their position. The first argument they presented is that, Employment-at-Will does not promote job security. We find that to be strong because firing employees for bad cause or no reason at all, does not seem rational although most employers use “Employment-at-Will” laws as mean to fire employees…
Ehrenreich (2002) describes the complete lack of sympathy for her from a homeowner when she was scrubbing the floor of her home (p. 72). The working poor are often treated by others in a hostile manner because they are unable to identify with them. A social worker must play the role of an enabler to keep the worker going even after they get put down by other social classes. The social worker has to help their client gain the ability to cope with situations or stress.…

Throughout the course we learned about different fields of social work, the complications that come with the job, and the different people you will encounter. Thus, changing our thoughts and feelings towards social work. Before taking the class our thoughts about social workers were more or less simple minded. I say this because most of us thought social workers simply deal with children and some consider them “child snatchers”. After getting the opportunity to take the class, we learned there is more to social workers than we thought. Social workers work with different ages, races, religions, and genders. We also learned how social workers work with these different populations (Morales, Sheafor, & Scott, 2010). During class we discussed a…

Consequently, compassion brings an emotional toll on the human services professional, so another essential trait is the knowing of one’s limits and establishing these boundaries early in the association to prevent burnout which is a detriment among human services workers in all professions. “It makes sense that an emotionally weary individual would be less disposed to make the emotional investment required in dealing with clients as individuals rather than as depersonalized cases” (Drake & Yadama, 1996).…
Social Workers value the maximum feasible self – determination, empowerment, and enhancing strengths to increase the client’s voice in decision making. ‘The Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EAPS) affirm the commitment of social programs to the core values of the profession: service, social justice, dignity, and worth of the person, importance of human relationships, integrity, competence, human rights, and scientific inquiry’ (NASW, 2008 A; CSWE, 2008; as per Hepworth, Glenda and Kim, 2010). Social Workers demonstrate respect for and acceptance of the unique characteristics of ‘diverse populations that are characterized by great diversity, including the intersection of dimensions such as age, class, culture, disability, ethnicity, gender, identity and expression, immigration status, political ideology, race, religion, sex, and sexual orientation, religion, physical or mental ability, age, and national origin’ (CSWE, 2008; as per Hepworth, Glenda, and Kim,…
Welfare is a system set by the federal government to assist those who can not afford to provide for themselves or their family. There are several types of welfare programs such as WIC Programs, Medicaid, food stamps, HUD, HHS and AFDC just to name a few. It was established during the Great Depression under President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He sought to fix the problem of the many citizens who were in great financial loss.…
Would you like it if your money that you have earned by working hard, is being wasted on people who are just being lazy? That’s what I am going to be talking to you about today. I think that there should be better rules for the welfare system. I will be talking to about the following; how people fraud the system, the expenses and finally, their dependence on the government.…
While researching texts written about the twentieth century welfare, I found that several authors are against the whole idea behind it, because in its basic concept welfare mean spending resources on citizens that are less successful in life, and who cannot depend on themselves to survive financially. The problem is evident when the government does not have a good plan to spend these resources, the consequences of these actions affect the middle-class and the lower-class, creating a financial crisis in the country. Since the welfare state uses deficits, the consequence is the excess of expenditures over revenue. In other words, "Much of the American welfare state has been financed by deficits, that is, by increases…
We all enjoy going home after school and clubs and sports so we can buckle down and fill out meaningless worksheets and packets until we crash? No. That work is not essential, it is the opposite. Busywork is destructive to the mind of a young and maturing learner. Developmental work involves application of learning through real life contexts, readying students for adulthood. Busywork involves meaningless copying of information or repetition of already learned knowledge instead of instilling new ideas into a student’s mind to broaden their horizons and to nurture their love for knowledge.…
