Engagement and Marriage

-
This we were discussing the topic of engagement, and marriage. We mainly covered the tasks of engagement, the purpose of marriage, and early marital adjustments. Neither of these are easy. They all take time and effort on both the man and the woman. They both take a lot of communication and understanding. Once a couple becomes engaged, it’s not a walk in the park. It takes a lot of talking to the other person. During class we made a list of things that usually happens when the couple becomes engaged. Obviously the first thing we talked about was planning a wedding and a reception. Everyone thinks that that is only the girl’s responsibility in the relationship. That’s not the case. We need to remember that it is “our wedding not mine”. By remembering this and actually including each other in the planning, it will actually bring the couple closer together. The next big topic we discussed was what will happen when they are married. The couple needs to establish what things they want t...

Things that affect the family

-
This week we were talking about how different things can affect the family. We made a list that contained some of the topics such as: location, housing and surroundings, possessions, employment, quality of life, health, and clatter vs clutter. Everything on this list can affect the family in a big way. I never really thought of how your possessions can affect the way you live.

Now take a person’s bed, car, stove, and even a kitchen table away, things might change a little bit. Just think about how your life might change if some of your important and necessary possessions were gone. There was one thing that wasn’t on the list that we did end up talking about and that was the influence of the father. What does the father do in the home? Typically, he is the one that fixes things around the house, teaches...

men and women

-
The topics that we went over this week in class were defiantly very interesting. The question that we discussed was, are men and women equal? If you really think about it they aren’t. There are not only physical differences, but mental and emotional as well. For example, men are usually better at math than girls. On the ACT the men score higher on the math section. females don’t do as well as men do. Many people believe that men and women should be equal so they wanted to make the math portion of the ACT test easier for the girls to get the same score as the boys. How is that equal in anyway? Basically, we are trying to make women equal to men by changing the way tests are given so women can score the same as the boys. Another thing we discussed was they physical aspect of the girls verses the guys. Women do not have the same physical structure as boys. We watched a video as a homework assignment and in that video, there was a part where women were training with the fire department...
