Abortion and Social Justice - Students for Life - 1 views

  •  
    "Abortion doesn't eliminate problems. It further complicates and harms relationships in women's lives. Abortion can and will only make any situation worse. It allows abuse and loneliness to continue. It's a quick fix to a bigger problem."
  •  
    I feel as though this article ignores major points, and fails to provide information. first off the determining of rights of the fetus. The article explains the meaning of social and justice separately yet fails to cover when and why a fetus should be covered in matters of justice. The article also fails to provide a basis for any of the information it provides instead of attempting to convince it simply states with no backing information. Overall the issue I have with this website is that it is more of an advertisement and less of an informational article it lacks any information besides the definition of social and justice.

  •  
    This article discusses how the United States is behind when it comes to providing paid maternity leave. The United States does not guarantee paid maternity leave.

    This is a very sad topic, i think everyone should be able to get maternity leave no matter the standards because there is nothing more beautiful than seeing a mother and father so happy with their new born baby. I believe that people should have longer maternity leave.
  •  
    I think everyone should be able to have maternity leave because its important for the mother and father to be with their baby. I think they should also be paid while taking this time off because they still need to be able to support the child and that cant be done if they are not making money.
  •  
    With the evidence that researchers have uncovered within their study on new mothers; these findings can be very alarming. Especially, the diagnose of postpartum depression. This is great evidence that can support this continuous debate.
  •  
    Pregnancy is the most beautiful thing a mother can experience, but at the same the most painful. With maternity leave mothers and fathers can have that time to recover and get back to their daily routines.
  •  
    My wife gave birth to our daughter back in August, she is a school teacher and it's very heartbreaking to know that current practices in the state of Arizona have defined pregnancy as a "short term disability." True there are aspects that are disabling, but the definition itself is what removes the obligation of the state to pay for leave, instead leaving woman in the education sector to pay for supplemental health care as current healthcare for public workers does not support pregnancy. At least in our case, I'm sure there are very rare exceptions.
  •  
    The U.S. needs to recognize that mothers need way more time than they actually get for maternity leave! Giving birth is such a beautiful but extremely painful and tiring/draining thing that women need time to recuperate from.
  •  
    I believe in maternity leave in just about any work place. The mother gets it rough and the thought of not getting paid maternity leave just stinks. I also believe that husbands should get maternity leave. Like, what if the mother has a higher paid job, and it is the dad that stays home?
  •  
    With the USA coming in last in maternity leave rights, Rita Ruben talks about the injustice the work place creates by not giving mothers the time and money they need to welcome their newest member of their families. Some countries even offer paid paternity leave, but in the USA, FMLA only saves your job as a mother. No pay or fathers allowed.
  •  
    This article points out the US is the last of the fairly developed countries when it comes to advancement in women's maternity leave. The article talks about studies that have shown how a women's maternity leave can have an impact on her overall health and well-being.
  •  
    I think the author made a very important comment by saying, "The mother's mental and physical health can be an important route through which infants are affected by parents' employment decisions." I totally agree with this. How can we ignore our health after having a baby. I have 5 children and I was fortunate enough to not have to work. I was able to stay home and heal, and most importantly bond with my baby. I recovered well post child birth, and I was able to be the best mother I could be to my children.
  •  
    This is a huge social injustice towards the mothers who have just given birth. Making maternity leave as a paid family leave is wrong because the mothers have to later make up all the time they took off to care for their newborn, which can be months.
  •  
    I think new moms definitely get the shaft when it comes to maternity leave. Just watching people in my life have their kids, and the struggles that can come after besides adjusting to new life I think it is a complete injustice that new moms don't have the option to have more paid time, separate from their regular PTO.
  •  
    It's truly heartbreaking to think about the struggles that many mothers have to face. They were just introduced to motherhood and already have to worry about not being able to have the time or money that is deserved. Most of all, the time needed to recover post birth.
  •  
    I think that maternity leave is vitally important for a mother and her child. However, what about fathers the child is just as much theirs yet little to no maternity leave is given. Usually if they take the time off for the birth of the child it comes out of their paid time off if they would like an extended amount of time.
  •  
    The United States definitely falls behind compared to most modernized countries in-regards to this. The fact that studies show much higher results for emotional bonding between parents, and the retention of employees for the company they're employed for, when giving maternal/paternal leave. I understand the reason why it's difficult for many American businesses to be competitive to some European industries that can have months off at a time for this, but even a couple paid weeks may make all the difference at a minimum for both parents, to adapt, and prepare for their new schedule/lives.
  •  
    I feel like every women should be guaranteed paid maternity leave. The government constantly wants us to re produce to keep the world going, so they should encourage women that they'll be fine with money and won't have to worry about missing work.
  •  
    Maternity leave should be a MUST. Pregnancy is tough and the delivery is life changing. Mother's go through all different kinds of changes. It is unfair for a mother to have to go through these changes all while worrying about having to go to work and missing and wondering how her child might be doing.

Childhood obesity: a societal problem to solve - PubMed - 1 views

  •  
    A child's weight is their own weight meaning only they can be the ones to properly exercise to have the correct weight. The only way to prevent childhood obesity is based off of the responsibility of the child. The prevention is known to be a struggle especially because exposure to unhealthy foods are everywhere.
  •  
    The article indicates that the issue with our society and how it relates to childhood obesity is in how we treat the issue, as a separate entity from all other health issues wherein the child and family receive support and resources on how to help prevent and treat their ailment. In America a child faced with Obesity is treated with distain despite the fact that the food and lifestyle pushed at them in every facet of their life is unhealthy and ultimately results in obesity and the article clearly aims to show the reader that the way in which we shift blame should reflect back at societies stigmatization rather than blame the child. How did you conclude that the child is solely responsible for their own obesity from reading the article?

  • Hearing parents of children who are deaf seem to have greater reluctance about sending their children because they do not want to be separated from them (Scheetz, 1993).
  • Parents who are Deaf themselves often choose a school for the Deaf over local schools because of the opportunity for their child(ren) to participate in the life of the Deaf community and culture
  • Students who are deaf and who attended mainstream schools must continue to prove their allegiance to the Deaf culture if they have chosen participation in adulthood (Reese, 1996).

      the author is biased in their writing and offers a biased perspective of this
  • the curriculum of the typical residential school tends to be less rigorous than that of other schools (Lane, Hoffmeister, & Bahan, 1996).
  • parents tend not to participate in their child's education to a sufficient degree
  •  
    The author reviews the purpose of Residential Schools for the Deaf and how they influence the social life and wellbeing of the children who are sent there for the better. The article shows a bias leaning towards the schools although there are many hearing families who find themselves troubled by the idea of sending their Deaf children away from K-12 but the article brings forward the positive aspects of how a residential school is uniquely capable of helping deaf children develop confidence and capable social skills that would allow them to experience a proper education unlike a mainstream public school in which they would most definitely be out-casted by their lack of resources, culture, language, and role models. It shows both the pros and cons of the residential schools for the Deaf in America but with a clear bias, however this is not unreasonable. Despite the clear bias towards residential schools from the author the article offers a point of view of hearing parents finding issue with sending their child away from home for long periods of time as they would experience with a residential school.
