Literature mimics real life and while reading, I found myself comparing the boys’ friendship to that of my closest friend and I.…
RAISING DAUGHTERS James E. Faust once said, “To be a good father and mother requires that the parents defer many of their own needs and desires in favor of the needs of their children. As a consequence of this sacrifice, conscientious parents develop a nobility of character and learn to put into practice the selfless truths taught by the Savior Himself”. Faust speaks on how in his eyes, parents should try to be less enthralled in their children’s lives in order to be “good”. The preceding proposal is directly correlative to both Amy Tan’s “Rules Of The Game” and Jamaica…

Parents who are aware of the potential effects of their child-raising strategies typically attempt to influence the child’s mindset, hoping to mold them into their vision of the world. In this vein, feminists, backed by the ever-expanding movement for gender and sexual equality, have tried to change society by making their children the agents of change. What methods of child-raising do feminists employ, and how do they work to instill the feminist mindset?…
Society will give people expectations and rules on how to raise a child. Parents have to assimilate to the modern values and have an open mind in how they will teach their children and also have a high acceptance if their child comes to adopt a modern belief they weren’t raised to.
