In the article “Kid Kustomers” author Eric Schlosser writes about how in today’s society many companies are targeting children to buy their products. These companies target children to buy a wide range of products not just products intended for children, for example, even automobile and oil companies have specific ads that target the youth. These ads are not only meant for consumption in the present, they are also meant for future consumption of their products. Also, throughout this article, the author includes the seven ways kids nag to their parents to get them to buy whatever they want is also included. In our society, if children throw tantrums or don’t stop their continuous begging and nagging they will get what they want.
Dear Mrs. Amy Chua, As an experienced (seasoned) mother of four, having recently read an excerpt from your book “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother” I unconditionally disagree with your perspective on this idea. Your ideal parenting method is unacceptable as it damages self-esteem, confidence, and creativity. It truly scares me to think that the content of your article may persuade amateur parents to mimic you and your “tactics”, which would be an absolutely tragic plummet in parenting standards, sending us back to the 1900s. I understand that you believe that the best way to raise a child is through an intense regimen consisting of limited leisure and long hours of study. However, you must recognize that there is much more to childhood than this.
Several organisations have been set up to assist or care for children who are primarily vulnerable; the trustees are responsible for ensuring that those benefitting from, or working with, are not abused in any way through contacts with it; they have a legal duty to act cautiously and this means that they must take all realistic steps within their power to ensure that this does not happen. It is particularly important where recipients are vulnerable children in the community; trustees are expected to find out what the relevant law is, how it applies to their organisation, and to comply with it where applicable, they should also adopt best practice as far as possible. In addition the main purpose of this module is to be accountable for the

Children need the help and support they can get from adults as they are the able to make the correct transition into the next step in their lives. But depending on the child's age depends on how much support they would need. Transitions can be affected in many different ways such as moving into a different class, changing key stage, changing school and into a different way of teaching. Children and young people will
During the beginning of modern Europe, there were conflicting views on the proper way to view children. Previously in history, the infant mortality rate was very high, so kids were treated more like adults and were often neglected because odds were they would die. There was a resounding view that kids should be treated harshly in order to become strong. Then in the seventeenth century, the idea of being tender and gentle to your kids was introduced. The way in children were brought up was influenced by assumptions made on both old and new schools of thought.
Learning Outcome 3.4 Every setting has a set of policies and procedures regarding the protection and safeguarding of children. These safeguarding policies will give practitioners guidelines about how they should work with children in a way which protects both the children and the practitioner within their everyday practice in the work setting and on off site visits. This is important as the setting will need to be aware of, and pass on to staff, how they should best protect themselves against incidents of alleged abuse or inappropriate working practices. Policies and procedures for safe working include, for example: • Working in an open and transparent way - It is important that practitioners prevent any situations and protect themselves
Culture is also important to consider the reason for this is because children are all different from one another and have diverse cultures. An example would be baking/cooking some ingredients are not allowed for certain cultures. Due to this it must be prepared for all the children to have and take place in the activity so that none of them are not
When children and teens commit a violent crime such as murder, courts convict them as adults. This means that children as young as eight have been tried as adults in court. Eventually, these convicts will be housed in jails with adults. Despite the federal law stating that juvenile and adult inmates must be separated, most states do not comply with these rules. Furthermore, a law that varies throughout the states is the age in which courts send the children to adult or juvenile prisons.
To begin with, the taste alone of school lunches is beyond unsatisfactory. The meals provided by public schools are not appetizing. There exists a tangible disconnect between the enticing, nutritious meals advertised on the school board’s menus and what the students actually receive—pathetic portions and lukewarm meals slapped onto a tray. Children’s complaints about school lunches are often seen as trite. However, while common, they are not any less accurate.
