Socialization is the lifelong social experience by which people develop their human potential and learn culture. I think that television doesn’t affect everyone to the same extent.

• parents punished for tennage crime
  When I think about the increase in teenage misbehaviors and criminal activities, then I do not think it is that easy to say whether or not the teenager or the parent should be fined or even put in prison. There is much more to it than just one decision; the age of the teen is very important, because the law does not allow to punish a thirteen year old the same way as a nineteen year old, or even the parent, who are thirty years of age or older. Also important is the age in relationship to the ...

• The Fight
  The Reluctant Fight It was a warm autumn day, my jacket was carelessly tossed on the ground, my fists were white knuckled, my eyes were intently focused, my heart was beating hard and fast, and in that instant I thought, how did I get here? Some might consider it as a rite of passage when a boy becomes a man, some might consider it to be barbaric and ignorant, either way I was about to embark in my first fist-fight. It was 1993 in seventh grade at Oskaloosa Jr. High School I was a skinny ki...

• Autisim Treatment
  Questions for "Evaluating Intervention Programs for Autism" 1. Why are testimonials not a good basis for making critical decisions about treatment? Testimonials are not a good basis for making critical decisions about treatments because they are too void of concrete and proven data. I liken it to the weight loss commercials on TV, which are heavily laden with testimonials yet have not been scientifically tested or proven by the Food and Drug Administration. The term “results may vary” is...
• Born Aliens
  Born Aliens Neonates have no psychology. If operated upon, for instance, they are not supposed to show signs of trauma later on in life. Birth, according to this school of thought is of no psychological consequence to the newborn baby. It is immeasurably more important to his "primary caregiver" (mother) and to her supporters (read: father and other members of the family). It is through them that the baby is, supposedly, effected. This effect is evident in his (I will use the male form only for...
