. Bilingual education has many advantages to children at a young age. As elementary students learn the concepts of a second language, they are able to understand concepts better than individuals that only speak one language. The advantage of learning two languages at an early age is that children’s minds are able to produce cognitive benefits, such as having more linguistic tools towards thinking, creativity, and flexibility in problem solving. Bilingualism helps children become cognitively superior, which as a result provides protection at an old age from cognitive declines. It is better for children to obtain a second language at an early age, because it is easier for them to absorb the information. A father’s role in his child’s development

There are four types of parenting styles: authoritarian parents (parents with strict standards), permissive parents (parents who are undemanding or inconsistent), authoritative parents (parents who encourage and set goals for the child), and uninvolved parents (parents who are detached emotionally and have a rejecting behavior). After reading and identifying the four types of parenting styles, I believe I was raised by authoritative parents, since my behavior is independent, I set goals, and I am self-disciplined. The way my parents raised me has impacted my life in a variety of ways, such as joining the US Navy (becoming independent), obtaining certain goals (AA Degree, advancement at work, and more), and being able to set and achieve goals; for example, using time management skills to accomplish online schooling. Ultimately, the way my parents raised me has shaped my social behavior and competence …show more content…
Freudians theory of defense mechanisms, is stated as “unconscious strategies that people use to reduce anxiety by distorting reality and concealing the source of the anxiety from themselves” (Feldman, 2015). The three defense mechanisms that I have observed from myself or someone else are: regression, denial, and displacement. A few weeks ago while working, I observed a Chief Petty Officer using regression. A First Class Petty Officer made a mistake while writing an evaluation for a junior sailor and the Chief got angry, he started yelling, and throwing papers everywhere, telling the First Class to fix it. Another defense mechanism that I have seen recently is denial; while at work, a junior sailor that had been studying for a qualification had gone to take the test to be fully qualified. He came back and told me that he failed the test by one question, but believes that he passed and that the one question was a right answer. However, after I looked over his test I discovered another question that was wrong, but he refused to believe that it was wrong. Finally, after looking up the answer and showing it to him, he realized he was wrong, but did not want to believe it. Lastly, I have observed displacement within myself on certain encounters. For instance, after being yelled by a Chief for a job that I clearly ran and had the ultimate responsibility for, I took out my anger on a junior sailor that was on the job at the time. Which was not really his fault, but due to the
