Traditional emphasis has been preparation for marriage and parenthood. In this curriculum the problem approach leads young men and women to first question: What should I do regarding my personal relationships? Should I marry or remain single? What options are available asI make major life decisions? To parent or not? When to parent? The entry level modules focus on personal development and peer relationships. Critical problem areas such as adolescent pregnancy, substance abuse and suicide are included. The practical reasoning process is used throughout to help students resolve personal, peer and family concerns. The meaning of family -- why families, future of the family-- is addressed. There are many opportunities for examining special problems -- divorce, family violence, elderly abuse, illness, death and other crises. There is positive emphasis in this curriculum on practical action for these problems, thereby strengthening the family. The world is "smaller". We must consider beyond our immediate situations. The opportunities to assist young people to broaden under- standing of other cultures and family customs different from their own can only strengthen our families, communities and nations. Students need to learn to be proactive. This section gives guidelines to help these students, for whom the future of families depend. Personal, family and child development are all included in the umbrella term, "Nurturing Human Development". This curriculum is oriented toward parenting and includes the traditional emphasis on ages and stages of child development. Decisions regarding parenting are emphasized followed by knowledge of developmental needs and skills to nurture children. Problems including abuse and neglect and the influence of television are included. There is positive emphasis on ways to strengthen parenting. NtIOMEMAKING.
