[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page overview of the many impacts divorces inflicts on children. Emphasizes that group therapy can go a long way toward resolving these impacts and in optimizing child welfare. Concludes, however, that group therapy, however, is just as dependent on outside factors as is any other type of behavioral therapy. The variation in effectiveness is largely dependent on a number of factors such as the degree of conflict which exists prior to and after the divorce, the custody arrangements, the degree to which the estranged parent stays involved with the children, and the age a child is when divorce occurs.

Children Of Broken Families: Contribution To Social Problems
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Parents often do not comprehend the far-reaching effects their actions have upon their children; indeed, mothers and fathers may wrongly believe that some children are old enough to both understand and accept the concept of divorce, while the rest are too young to comprehend or be affected by its occurrence. One of the problems is that the parents all too often do not understand the myriad feelings that plague their children, not realizing that the divorce extends far beyond the boundaries of the mother and father. Whether it is because children hold back their feelings as a means by which to appear strong or that they are just not able to express them, the parents are not aware of the significant and negative impact a broken family has upon their children, often and unwittingly setting the stage for social problems later in life.

Comparison of Parent-Daughter Relationships Complicated by Food in Hornbacher�s �Wasted� and Manheim�s �Wake Up, I�m Fat�
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper comparing the parental relationships found in Marya Hornbacher�s book �Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia� and Camryn Manheim�s book and one woman play �Wake Up, I�m Fat�. Marya Hornbacher�s book �Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia� and Camryn Manheim�s book and one woman play �Wake Up, I�m Fat� show two different perspectives in regards to parental reactions and complications to the weight gain or loss of their daughters. In Hornbacher�s �Wasted�, she explains how her mother remained reserved about her condition and claimed to be ignorant of her problem until well into her teens because of her daughter�s ability for �deceit�. Her father, who was much more emotional, became dependent on Hornbacher during his disputes with her mother. Neither parent seemed to focus on Hornbacher�s inner plea of �Look at me, look at me� and Hornbacher still feels vulnerable to her illness to this day. Manheim, on the other hand, has a positive fighting attitude and acceptance of her body weight and this is partially due to the support offered to her from her mother and her father. Her parents were hard on her and tried to bride her in order for her to lose weight in addition to taking her to numerous doctors and specialists at a young age. The difference however, lay in their concern and support of their daughter�s condition and attention to her weight gain became a cause of their own. In addition, her parents taught her the importance of fighting for others and the strength needed to do this which aided Manheim in fighting for herself. Manheim�s work remains humorous and positive in her overall acceptance of her weight and her appreciated support of her parents.

Comparison of Research Approaches / Family Psychology
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing the method in which four researchers have approached the issue of family cohesiveness and its effect on the children of the family. Most of the studies reviewed revolve in some way around previously established models, and one was little more than a basic literature review of previously published work. Because the focus of each of the others was that of attitudes and feelings, the researchers were unable to employ definite measures of specific qualities. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Comparison of the Family and Gender Structures in the Yanomamo, the Aztec and the Modern American Families
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper comparing the gender and family structures of the Yanomamo, the Aztecs and modern Americans. The Yanomamo of the Brazilian rainforest, the Aztecs of Mexico and modern Americans all have traditionally different gender and family structures and roles but all also experienced shifts within their structures to adapt to new situations encountered by new generations. The males within the Yanomamo are considered as the warriors but are heavily influenced by the women who demand protection from raiding tribes. The men within the tribes also continuously create stronger alliances with other powerful men in order to increase their status and their marriage options. The families of the Aztecs of Mexico lived jointly and joint households consisted of complex kinship ties in addition to the genders enjoying a parallel level of roles and respect. After the Spanish conquests however, the gender roles and family structures shifted toward a more male oriented society consistent with the expectations of the Spanish. Finally, the traditional nuclear families of American society have also shifted within the last generation. As the incidence of divorce increases and more women are working outside of the home, American families have experienced a shift to households which may have traditional nuclear structures but more than likely have environments in which parents are divorced, or cohabitating or are single parent based.
