I walked in Mrs. Turner’s Kindergarten class today is my last day observing this classroom. Mrs. Turner was going over the words sentences that the students formed the last time I observed which was on Monday about what they liked to do with their families. The students are sitting on the carpet; she had to tell the students to behave on the carpet. Mrs. Turner is handled each student a dry erase board where she wrote a word from part of the sentence on it. She split the class in half having…

questions and she would tell her parents her mother would just shake her head and consider. Two years after her father's job here in America was done so she moved back to her home country. Within the last month of her living there she went to a sleepover. Kids asked even more questions questioning when they would come back to the U.S from Iran. She was only a child so she had no idea but she allowed them to visit her in Iran. Her mother spent the last weeks getting gifts and such things. More…

Who is the better Parent -Clash of Cultures? Being a parent is a rewarding job and we always want what we feel is best for our children. Sometimes what we want may not always be the best. Some parents are too demanding and some are too lenient. Does that make the person a bad parent or a good parent? Some cultures say Westerns are too lenient and our children are lazy.

Divorce is a radical life changer, for all involved; siblings, mother, father, uncles, aunts, grandparents. Everyone related. It all started on March 2010. My mom found out that my dad was having an affair. He never said so, but it became clear that it had been going on for some time already. It was with a woman at his work, so he could see her freely without any suspicion from us. My mom kicked him out of the house, and he came and went for a while. He would visit us once in a while, but…

“No, no, no, no.” I repeated. I had refused to sleepover my cousin’s house without my parents, especially for a whole week. “It’s just for a few days, then Dad and I will join you the last day to celebrate the Fourth of July. Plus, you love your cousins.” My mom pressed. “No it’s not the same! And it’s not for a few days. It’s for an entire week. There’s only so much of them I can handle.” I said angrily. I was not going to do this. There was no way. Yet, here I was a few weeks later sitting in…

you!" "Let's put him out of his misery." This was shouted by young adults Jordan Hill, aged 18; Tesfaye Cooper; aged 18; Brittany Covington, aged 18; and Tanishia Covington, aged 24 as they met with a special needs student. They invited him for a sleepover and the plan was to meet them at a McDonald’s and they would then head to their home. What wasn’t part of his plan is that after his mom dropped him off at the McDonald's he would be taken against his will in a stolen van, bound and gagged,…

When Matt and I were invited to sleepovers John was not always openly welcomed. In fact, some parents viewed him as a grubby kid who shouldn’t be allowed to use their towels or sleep in their child’s bed fearing he might pollute them somehow. We bought him along anyway, prompting interrogating…

competitive gymnast, training three hours a week, three times a week with meets every weekend. No one at school really understood me for it. They just knew I was always busy and was the one doing splits on the mats in PE. I wasn’t invited to the sleepovers on the weekends or had playdates after school because I was always in the gym. I was fine with it and I was used to it. Gymnastics was what I did, it was who I was. For a while it was what defined me. My goals were college scholarships, being…
