Indeed, confronted by an overly critical boss, nitpicky spouse, or a child throwing a tantrum over not getting his or her way, an ACoA becomes irrationally unnerved by their present day circumstances Continue reading...

As a result, they provide the loop holes for the spread of a loss in case of a disaster outbreak (Hetzel & American Bar Association, 2010).

Over the years, the nature of sex education in our schools has changed quite radically, but a controversy between approaches still rages on. It probably all began with a scientific (and short) discussion of the birds and the bees, perhaps in a biology class—or no discussion at all--and it has evolved into the offering, in some states, of in-depth comprehensive sexuality classes wherein pleasure, desire, and emotions are addressed, along with birth control, homosexuality, and the avoidance of STD’s and HIV/AIDS. The teaching of total abstinence until marriage is still very prevalent too, though this approach has Continue reading...

During the fourteenth century, a devastating plague quickly diffused across Europe and decimated over half of the populations in major cities. Those who survived nonetheless suffered from long-term consequences. The transition from the late Middle Ages to early modern Europe has been touted as the “Age of Uncertainty” during which regular people were far more concerned about religion in their everyday lives rather than on salvation in the future. Thus, they cared about food, war, famine, and widowhood. Disease, famine, and warfare, however, coalesced and laid the foundation for how unhinged European society became when the Black Plague, or Continue reading...

Social support from acquaintances encourages the growth of social bonds, which constrain the individuals from committing crime. The social bond theory proposed by Travis Hirschi states that delinquency occurs due to a person’s weak or broken bonds with the society, thereby minimizing the personal stakes in compliance. Individuals maintain compliance not in the fear of facing punishments, but in the fear of losing relationships with their friends, family and other social acquaintances . The inner containment of an individual plays an important role in establishing the relationship between delinquency and social bonds. Hirschi rejects to view the society as Continue reading...
