One technique that I find helpful during child birth is to take Lamaze classes, beforehand. This will keep mom at claim and relaxed.” The name is French, which stands...

...Piaget’s contribution from birth to age 7 Birth and Death: * Born August 9, 1896 * Died September 16, 1980 Jean Piaget's Early Life: Jean Piaget was born in Switzerland in 1896 and began showing an interest in the natural sciences at a very early age. By age 11, he had already started his career as a researcher by writing a short paper on an albino sparrow. He continued to study the natural sciences and received his Ph.D. in Zoology from University of Neuchâtel in 1918. Career: Piaget later developed an interest in psychoanalysis, and spent a year working at a boys' institution created by Alfred Binet. Binet is known as the developer of the world's first intelligence test and Piaget took part in scoring these assessments. While his early career consisted of work in the natural sciences, it was during the 1920s that he began to move toward work as a psychologist. He married Valentine Châtenay in 1923 and the couple went on to have three children. Piaget's observations of his own children served as the basis for many of his later theories. Theory: Piaget identified himself as a genetic epistemologist. "What the genetic epistemology proposes is discovering the roots of the different varieties of knowledge, since its elementary forms, following to the next levels, including also the scientific knowledge," he explained in his book Genetic Epistemology. Epistemology is a branch of philosophy that is concerned with the origin, nature, extent, and limits of human...

...Gender Identity Paper Barbra Kill PSY/340 April 4th, 2012 Kelle Franklin Gender Identity Paper Gender is a psychological term that refers to the awareness and reaction to the biological term of sex. It is also a term that can have more than one meaning. Gender role is when someone adopts the masculine or feminine behavioral traits that are associated with each sex. Gender identity refers to a person’s personal sense of whether they are male or female, and sexual orientation or preference is whom a person is physically and sexually attracted to. Before the 1950’s gender assignment at birth was a matter of ‘predominant sex’; in other words, dependent on external genitalia, structure of gonads, and sex chromosomes (Cohen-Kettenis, 2005). In the wake of the behavioral-cognitive movement that sprang up shortly thereafter, the ‘psychosexual neutrality’ theory was embraced, built upon the supposed, all-encompassing mechanism of experiential learning. More recently a policy of ‘optimal gender’ has been adopted, in which gender assignment is based on reproductive abilities, overall psychological functionality, and psychosexual efficacy. Regardless of which policy is used for gender assignment, an understanding of the underlying genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors involved in sexual differentiation is the key to elucidating the more complicated subjects of gender identity and sexual orientation. Biological factors play a huge role in shaping children’s physical...

Millions of pairs of the pajamas expected to be sold now had to be disposed of. Exporting companies began purchasing the pajamas at a wholesale price with the intention of dumping the banned product on overseas markets. Dalkon Shield was a birth control device found to have adverse reactions including pelvic inflammation, blood poisoning, tubal pregnancies, and uterine perforations. The Office of Population within the US Agency for International Development purchased the product and dumped it on foreign markets for the intent of population control. They claimed that Third World countries would prefer any method of birth control over none, as the rate of infant mortality is high.

...Lifespan Development Paper Developmental psychology is unit or branch of psychology which is concerned with the study of progressive behavioral changes in an individual from birth until death.Developmental psychology seeks to address various aspects of human development, including physical, cognitive, social, moral, and personality development. This paper will focus on the developmental psychology as it relates to infancy. Infancy is the time from birth until the age of one year old. What factors affect physical development? A baby; a precious new life is brought into the world and what an amazing and wonderful first year of life is in store for not only this child but his or her parents as well. During their first year, babies start to develop skills they will use for the rest of their lives. The normal growth of babies can be broken down into the following areas: Gross motor skills such as controlling the head, sitting, crawling and maybe even starting to walk. Fine motor skills like holding a spoon, picking up a piece of cereal between thumb and finger. Sensory skills are learning to use our senses in seeing, hearing, tasting, touching and smelling. Language development skills are starting to make sounds, learning some words, understanding what people say and Social skills is learning the ability to play with family members and other children. Culture has a major influence in regards to a child’s development. If a child is overstimulated or even under stimulated;...

...world's oldest extant religion, with a billion followers, which makes it the world's third largest religion. Unlike other religions, Hinduism is a way of life, a Dharma, the law that governs all action. It has its own beliefs, traditions, advanced system of ethics, meaningful rituals, philosophy and theology. In this paper I will attempt to explain my view on Hinduism worldviews and will also elaborate on differences between Christianity and the Hinduism religion. The question of Origin asks "How did life begin?", "How did I come into existence? There is no central person to whom Hinduism can trace its origin unfortunately. The word “Hinduism” is not to be found in the scriptures, making it difficult to present a moment in time when the movement launched. Hinduism is a system that “attempts to maintain a complex polytheism on the one hand, and an earth-based worship of nature on the other” (Hindson and Caner, 263). Somewhere in the middle, these two religious impulses collide, and Hinduism is born. The question of Identity seeks to identify "What does it mean to be a human?" Hinduism states that humans are the highest of all creation. Souls can take many births in lower forms to get the eligibility to be born as human. Life can form lower than human beings, such as insects, plants and animals to name a few. The question of meaning/purpose asks, "Why does mankind exist?”, “Why do I exist?" In Hinduism they believe in eternal spiritual truth, called Brahman, from whom all...

...Communications Coordinator Alitha King HCS/320 June 25, 2012 Kristina Gray Communications Coordinator In this paper I will be discussing the advantages and disadvantages for the drug Yaz. Yaz is a birth control pill that women take to improve their menstrual cycle, and to prevent pregnancy. Yaz has many mild side effects like cramping to nausea; this drug is known for very serve side effects that include migraine headaches, uncontrollable uterine bleeding, kidney disorders, stroke, and possibly death (Drugwatch, 2013). Yaz is also known to put women at a higher risk of hypertension (high blood pressure), blood clots, liver function, disturbances, liver tumors, anaphylactic reactions, changes in glucose levels that can lead to diabetes and worsen lupus (Drugwatch, 2013). The advantage for using social media is that it will spread all over the social networks like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Path. Females that have any of those social network accounts will be the main ones to help put the word out about Yaz encouraging other women to avoid taking this type of birth control. For example, promoting that Yaz has a recall on their drugs will help prevent women lives and their health. Yaz company does not care rather it is taking women lives and making their health at high risk, Yaz company only cares about rather their product is going to sell or how much money they going to make. Disadvantages for putting it on social media, the person who owns the social network...

...understand the reaction of one who asks: how could its birth possibly give rise to an action for damages? But every baby has a belly to be filled and a body to be clothed. The law relating to damages is concerned with reparation in money terms and this is what is needed for the maintenance of a baby.’ Peter Pain J (II) Introduction ‘Wrongful Birth’ and ‘Wrongful Life’ are issues caught in a ‘legal quagmire’, as they exist between realms of purist legal principles and heated public policy debate. Much like the social taboos of abortion and euthanasia, at their core, they raise questions as to the value placed on human life. Moreover, this ‘value’ is represented by two sides of the coin in addressing the intangible ‘blessing’ of conception and existence, against the real fiscal burdens involved in adequately raising a child. In recent years several major cases have come before English and Australian courts to address issues in this field; however decisions have been far from unanimous, leaving the law in a state of ambiguity. This paper attempts to provide a line of clarity in respect to the developments of legal principles and public policy on these issues, by closely examining relevant case progression and wider academic debate. (III) Development of the ‘Birth Torts’ Unfortunately, the labels of ‘Wrongful Birth’ and ‘Wrongful Life’ are contentious even in their very existence; however it is critical to establish that ‘what is ‘wrongful’ is the negligence, not the birth’. Both...

In fact, not only law yet every religion prohibit this kind of conduct, but still infanticide seems as just another crime in this globalization era. This paper aims to discuss about the law enforcement in reducing the number of infanticide in Malaysia. This paper analyses the provision of Section 318 of the Penal Code whether this Act is sufficient to punish the wrongdoer and any other solutions towards this cases. Besides, the role of Malaysia government in the enforcement of law and also how the authorities acts towards solving the cases of infanticide in Malaysia. Hence, the paper also analyses about the effects of law to the wrongdoers and given suggestions for further impacts, including Islamic viewpoints. 1. INTRODUCTION Infanticide can be defined as when any women by any willful act or omission causes the death of her newly-born child, but at the time of the act or omission she had not fully recovered from the effect of giving birth to such child, and by reason thereof the balance of her mind was then disturbed, she shall, notwithstanding that the circumstances were such that but for this section the offense would have amounted to murder, be guilty of the offence of infanticide (Section 309A, Penal Code Act 574).

...most controversial cases in United States history, but the debate was just beginning. The landmark case of Jane Roe v. Dallas County District Attorney Henry Wade was not only symbolic of the progress of women’s rights, but an indication of judicial activism and its potentially damaging affects. It began as a fight for an unmarried young woman and her desire to terminate her pregnancy, even though it did not pose serious physical danger to her health. But, in the process of this struggle, an unprecedented judicial involvement emerged. II. This paper will first provide the necessary expository information, highlighting the central characters in this historical case, the political climate of the Supreme Court Justices during the trial, as well as a earlier case, Griswold v Connecticut which preceded Roe v. Wade. The paper will discuss the proceedings of the case at both the District and Supreme Court levels. Following, this paper will debate the surface issues of the abortion controversy, Roe as a precedent for future cases (Planned Parenthood v. Casey, Stenberg v. Carhart, and the breaking news decision of Gonzales v. Carhart), and the implied right(s) of the Constitution. III. In the 1970s, Linda Coffee and Sarah Weddington, two hot shot young lawyers from Texas, recruited Norma McCorvey as lead plaintiff under the alias “Jane Roe” in a class action suit lawsuit on behalf of US women everywhere. Coffee and Weddington had graduated from the University of Texas Law...

...Emily Benjamin ES150 2/12/2014 Reaction Paper #3: Black Indian Slaves Narrative George Fortman’s interview concerning his past gives an extremely detailed account of the events that shaped the man he is today. He begins his interview by recounting the horrific past of his Native American people. He tells of the deception his ancestors lived through, as well as the journey that many of them did not live to see the end of. However, two of his ancestors, John Hawk, a Blackhawk Indian, and Rachel, a Choctaw maiden, survived the “trail of death” and brought their two children, Courtney and Lucy, to the cane lands. John Hawk soon after became ill and passed on, leaving Rachel and the two girls to become slaves and chattel. Courtney soon became a mother to Eliza, a half-breed daughter from Master Ford George. As Eliza grew older, she too bore a child for Master Ford George after spearing him through the heart and giving birth on her own, away from the plantation. This child is George Fortman, by whom this interview is held. George and his mother are well taken care of by the George family throughout his childhood, as they both work as slaves for the family. George is educated by Mistress Lorraine, Ford George’s widowed wife, and lives to see the beginning and end of the Civil War. I found that the most troubling piece of information from George Fortman’s interview is his recollection of his mother’s own troubling past. From her confusing childhood as a halfbreed, to watching...

...others. The medical field of gerontology deals with examining the biological changes of aging, both passive and active, that occur at the molecular and cellular levels. This paper will seek to explore those changes, and the affect that they have on the process of aging. Aging as a passive process involves the breakdown of structures and the resulting slowing of functions. At the molecular level, passive aging is seen as the degeneration of the elastin and collagen proteins of connective tissues. These proteins are primarily responsible for the smoothness and firmness of young skin. Consequently, when these proteins breakdown, the skin will sag, and the muscle will lose its firmness. Another sign of passive aging is the breakdown of lipids at the biochemical level. As aging membranes leak during this lipid degeneration, a fatty, brown pigment known as lipofuscin accumulates. As this happens, the mitochondria, or the "powerhouse of the cell" begins to break down, thereby decreasing the amount of energy that is being supplied to the cell. This cellular degeneration may be set into action by highly reactive chemicals known as free radicals. These molecules have an unpaired electron in the outermost valence shell. This causes the molecule to grab electrons from other molecules, setting into motion a chain reaction that destabilizes them, and causes death of the cell. These free radicals are the normal by-product of metabolism, and can also form due to exposure to radiation or toxic chemicals...
