Divorce

     Throughout this semester I have learned so much about how families work and how to make your family better. I have learned so much about how parents affect their children’s lives. I’ve learned about how the world has changed and how people view marriage and kids. It has been very entertaining to learn about. The last topic that was discussed this semester was divorce. We had talked about divorce before but this time it was just divorce. Two years after a conflict 70% of people who were divorced find that they could have saved their marriage. They learn that the conflict was not a big as they thought it was in the moment. Two years after men are divorced 70% of them are usually married. However, 62% of these remarriages involve children. There are several people who have gone through divorces. Many who have had children find that most of the time they have shared custody. This means that they share the kids. However, there is not a way to have the kids fifty-fifty percent of th

Belonging

    We all want to have the feeling that we belong. It’s who we are and how we were made. Each one of us has wanted to belong somewhere in our life. Whether that be in a friend’s group, family, or maybe even just wanting to belong to a single person. Even though we want to feel like we belong, we sometimes are deprived of it.        There are several ways that people will feel like they belong because having that feeling is a need. The first way is contact. Physical contact is important. Whether it be just a simple hand on a shoulder or a hug. Physical contact helps us have the feeling of belonging. An example of the lack of physical contact could be a hyper child. This child acts out, is rude, and can’t sit still whatsoever. There could be several reasons why this child is behaving this way. However, one way that you could attempt to solve this problem is to show the child some attention. Wrestle with them, hug them, or play with them. Give them kind physical contact and see what happ

Fathers

     Fathers are truly amazing. My father has done so much for me in my life. He has provided a way for me to go to school, have work, and do several other things. He has been the best dad I could have asked for. He has provided so much for me in my life, and he has only wanted what is best for me. Without my father’s guidance and love, I would have not turned out the way I am today. Without a father, my life would have been so different and that is how the world is. Each and every family is different but without a father in the home, there can be complications. If we look at the world, we can see that in several cases there are many who become aggressive towards others because of how they were treated by their father or because of the lack of one. In some cases, we tend to have school shooters who have had problems with their fathers. It’s not a question to the movie industry that fathers play an important role in the life of characters. Have you ever noticed that when a character d

Kommunikations medier?

       Do you ever get so angry as someone that you don’t think about what you say to them? Just like when someone asks, “Why are you so defensive?” your response would most likely be “I’m not”. Well, I’m sorry to break it to you but that is being defensive. So how do you make it so that you don’t get angry or upset at someone for something that they said? Let’s talk about a few ways that we can avoid it. First off, communication is a tricky part of life. Communication consists of three things: words, tones, and non-verbal. Each is important in communication and plays a big part in how we take things. Today, however, we have made true communication hard for each one of us. We have made it hard because of our electronic devices. We use our devices to send messages. These messages consist of just words, maybe an emoji here and there but for the most part, they are just letters that make a sentence. Have you ever had a miss communication from a text message? If so, it is not uncommon. T

Stressing

  Stress is a big part of life. There is not one person who will go through life without having something to stress about. Stress is normal and expected. However, some people in our world do not believe that stress is a part of life. They tend to think that if they are stressing over something, they think something is wrong with them. When thinking about your life it is easy to see where you have experienced different levels of stress. The ABC’s of stress are A, actual events. These are events in your life that have or will happen that will make you stressed. This could be any type of event. B, is both resources and responses. This is another one that everyone will experience. The last one is C, cognition, which means the mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought and the senses. These are all experiences that each of us will come across at some point in our lives, more than likely we will experience it more than once. Stress can cause depressio

Oxytocin, The Bonding Chemical

  It's interesting the different ways male and female brains work. I find it interesting that many people do not take that into consideration when they think about marriage. It’s already hard enough to pull and place together two individuals raised in different circumstances together. Now we must think of the fact that they are two different genders who do not think the same. However, with understanding and patients’ things can change. If we work hard to understand the ways the different genders think, we will become more willing to come up with a solution than just quickly blaming someone for something they couldn’t control. When a man and a woman marry there are several ways to bring their relationship closer together. It will help them feel connected with each other and they can form a bond with each other. This is sex. Many do not understand what sex is used for. They think it is there for pleasure however that is not the case. Sex is a part of life that helps us bring childr

Marriage?

               Today, Marriage is not what it used to be. Marriage has changed a lot and has become something new. In the eighteenth-century marriage was a way to obtain or keep wealth. It was political. In the middle-class family’s marriage was a business deal and for the women, it was a way to gain economic security. Love was not in the matter, and it was mainly arranged marriages.  Eventually, as time went on men started turning to their wives for intimacy instead of turning to concubines or other women. Women turned to their husbands as well for intimacy instead of just economic security. In fact, in today’s world intimacy is one of the primary goals in marriage. As we can see people marry for more than love and intimacy. Some people marry for wealth, politics, business, security, as well as several other things. However, some people do marry for love.               When looking for a spouse we run into several social factors and conditions. We run into stereotypes and other expe
