The Carter family group consisted of Alvin Pleasant Delaney ("A.P." Carter, December 15, 1891 – November 7, 1960), his wife Sara Dougherty Carter (1898–1979) and his sister –in –law Maybelle Addington Carter (1909–1978). They were a traditional American folk music group recorded between 1927 and 1956 and the first music group became country music stars. Their music provided both material as well as techniques to new generation of musicians and had been influential in bluegrass, country, Southern Gospel, pop and rock musicians as well as on the U.S. folk revival of the 1960s. The Carter’s traditional musical style was revolved around the unique guitar playing skill of Maybelle. Maybelle developed an innovative playing technique called “Carter

Louie often headed down this same path, however he continued to trudge on because he believed “A lifetime of glory is worth a moment of pain” (35). With the same mindset, lives can be turned around and faced down a better path. Addicts must find hope in themselves to overcome their challenge and work towards a brighter

and N.A. meetings I attended this book contains many quotes from the Twelve Step model and makes many references to God and a Higher Power which may encourage many readers to use faith to change the codependency. It seems that the Twelve Steps are very important not only for those with a drug addiction, but those who struggle with some sort of compulsive action that affects their everyday lives. The author aims to let the readers acknowledge if they may have a codependency issue by giving a list of signs of codependency and tries to walk the reader through such situations by giving examples of
In the story “A River Runs Through It” the father was very understanding on the fact that family needs to be there to support and help the addict. During his sermon he stated, “Each one of us here today will at one time in our lives look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question, ‘We are willing to help, Lord, but what, if anything, is needed’ It is true that we can seldom help those who are closest to us. Either, we don’t know what part of ourselves to give or, more of then that not, the part we have to give is not wanted. And so it is those we live with and should know who elude us, but we can still love them. We can love them completely without complete understanding.”
There’s no typical family as nuclear families as in the past and not everyone lives in a multigenerational household. Same-sex families are also on the rise as sexual ambiguity is undergoing its own wave of acceptance in all political, social, and economic spheres. With the absence of the parents’ presence in the home due to an inability effectively balance work and home life, children could develop an emotional void/absence. Good communicative dialogue between children and their parents where the adults describe their work situation as it relates to the home to create resilient children, could possibly benefit the household.
Within each move comes a challenging, new lifestyle that puts each child's present and future at
With a working single parent, often I’ve taken care of my sister and myself, this responsibility has made me a more considerate and hardworking person and allowed me to know from a young age that I was capable and could achieve the high expectations I set for myself. Over the years, this responsibility has given me confidence in myself and my family, that by working hard and taking care of each other we could make it through the difficult
Positive role models are so important in our society, someone who they can look up to and be a positive impact on their lives. So many times, in our society, so many adolescences marvels at role models that have no talent like the Kardashian or these reality TV stars. I like the positive role models for adolescence that encourage them to make smart choices in their lives and builds them up overall. One positive role model for adolescence would have to be the rapper J Cole, there are a lot of rappers that talk about negative things in their music like violence and having the most money. The rapper J Cole sings about being positive and loving yourself, he is a lot different then other rappers in our society, the reason I picked him is because

They raised two kids: my 19-year-old brother, who is currently a freshman at the University of Georgia, and myself. Thanks to their hard work, I’m able to worry about the things I do. Never have I worried about not having food on my plate, about being denied my education, or being forced to leave everything I know and abandon my dreams. It’s easy to forget what my parents have done for me, for the opportunities and doors they have opened for me.
