Blended Families and Final Blog

  This may be my final blog for the semester. I had a great experience writing this out every week for my class and for whoever has taken the time to read them. This was a fun opportunity to share about what I have learned in one of my classes for college throughout the semester. I have learned a lot from my teacher and my classmates, and I am hoping to take what I have learned with me for the rest of my life and apply it to my future family as well to help them learn too. This Family Relations class was a great class to learn more involving families and how each family works differently in society, I recommend this class to anyone attending Brigham Young University Idaho, the teacher, especially, did a great job not only teaching, but keeping us involved during discussions to help us learn more. Throughout the week, we decided to focus on one of the biggest downsides that may come to a lot of people these days. We focused on the topic regarding divorce. We spent the first half of

Apsects Involving Parents and Children

Another aspect of that topic that we focused on involved rebellion. That typical stage whenever a child starts rebelling while growing up, averagely speaking, every parent has experienced their children rebelling against them and their rules. The ot

Different Cultures and Roles in Families

Throughout the week, we spent some time focusing on the different kinds of cultures and roles that there are in families in different parts of the world. Some of those cultures may be focused on different things when it comes to families. Typically, here in the US, both of the parents nowadays work jobs to try to provide for their children and each other. Back then, usually, one of the parents would be the provider, working to help maintain themselves and their families. Nowadays, only one income for the family is nowhere near enough to help support a family. Another difference in cultures that we have seen was the difference between back in the days before our generation and now. There are decisions and events in people’s lives that are either celebrated, frowned upon, or even supported by others, depending on what the decision is. An example that we may see in this is when a couple announces that they are having a baby, people back in the day used to celebrate and be happy for th
