Abstract Toni Morrison, Nobel Prize winner (1993), has been recognized as one of the most prominent novelists in the USA today. Her novels Song of Solomon and Sula rank enormous and original literary creativity through which she shows what it means to survive as an individual in the black families of America. Hence, this article explores the desperation and vulnerabilities of children who grow up in dysfunctional families and how they experience trauma and pain from their parents’ unconventional actions and behaviors. The article accounts of the irregular experiences that the main characters of these two novels have to confront at hostile homes as they grow up changed, different from other children, and lack the essential educational guidance that prepare them for adulthood.

  • Dysfunctional Family Roles in an Effort to 1) Survive and 2) Have a Sense of Stability, the Family Members Will Usually Develop Specific Roles
    Growing Up In a Dysfunctional Family “Dysfunctional simply means that it doesn’t work, but it often looks like it does. In contrast to a functional family, it has been suggested that the dysfunctional family is a dictatorship run by its sickest member. It is one that does not function in a normal, healthy way. The family members are unable to find stability. A dysfunctional family is characterized BY LACK OF BOUNDARIES. We usually think of alcoholism or drug addiction in the family as the primary cause of the dysfunction, but it can also be caused by a variety of other different problems that families face: a serious illness (such as cancer), a death in the family, or mental illness. It can be caused by either an extramarital affair, religious abuse, or other abuses. It can be caused by anything that rocks or stresses the family. Often dysfunction is intergenerational. (means that families pass on what they learn to the next generation and so on. .) The question is no longer, “Did I come from a dysfunctional family?”, but “To what degree was my family dysfunctional? It is not “How dysfunctional was my family?” but , “In what ways was it dysfunctional?” It is not “Did it affect me to come from this family?” but “How did it affect me, what roles did I play and what am I left with now?” It is not “Do I need to do something about my family of origin and the resulting boundary issues?” but “What do I do to address the specific issues resulting from my dysfunctional family of origin?”” O’Neil & Newbold Dysfunctional Family Roles In an effort to 1) survive and 2) have a sense of stability, the family members will usually develop specific roles.

  • Role of Trace Minerals in Animal Production
    ROLE OF TRACE MINERALS IN ANIMAL PRODUCTION What Do I Need to Know About Trace Minerals for Beef and Dairy Cattle, Horses, Sheep and Goats? Connie K. Larson, Ph.D. Research Nutritionist, Zinpro Corporation Eden Praire, MN 55344 Presented at the 2005 Nutrition Conference sponsored by Department of Animal Science, UT Extension and University Professional and Personal Development The University of Tennessee. Introduction The role of trace minerals in animal production is an area of strong interest for producers, feed manufactures, veterinarians and scientists. Adequate trace mineral intake and absorption is required for a variety of metabolic functions including immune response to pathogenic challenge, reproduction and growth. Mineral supplementation strategies quickly become complex because differences in trace mineral status of all livestock and avian species is critical in order to obtain optimum production in modern animal production systems. Subclinical or marginal deficiencies may be a larger problem than acute mineral deficiency because specific clinical symptoms are not evident to allow the producer to recognize the deficiency; however, animals continue to grow and reproduce but at a reduced rate. As animal trace mineral status declines immunity and enzyme functions are compromised first, followed by a reduction in maximum growth and fertility, and finally normal growth and fertility decrease prior to evidence of clinical deficiency (Figure 1; Fraker, 1983; Wikse 1992). In order to maintain animals in adequate trace mineral status, balanced intake and absorption are necessary. Figure 1. Effect of declining trace mineral status on animal performance Mineral Status Immunity & Enzyme Function Adequate Maximum Growth/Fertility Normal Growth/Fertility Clinical Signs Subclinical Clinical Trace Mineral Function To better understand the role of trace minerals in animal production it is important to recognize that trace elements are functional components of numerous metabolic events.

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1453. 73 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0305-5. Stunted growth affects one in four children under the age of five years and comes with great costs for the child and society. With an increased understanding of the long-term consequences of chronic undernutrition the reduction of stunted growth has become an important priority on the global health agenda. WHO has adopted a resolution to reduce stunting by 40% by the year 2025 and to reduce stunting is one of the targets under the Sustainable Development Goals. The aim of this thesis was to study linear growth trajectories, risk factors and consequences of stunting and recovery of stunting from fetal life to adolescence in a rural Bangladeshi setting and to assess the cost-effectiveness of a prenatal nutrition intervention for under-five survival and stunting.

    A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

Downloaded from Abstract Background: The impact of infant–parent bed-sharing on the risk of sudden infant death syndrome is currently a matter of controversy and advice relating to whether or not it is safe for babies to bed-share with adults remains unclear. In Ireland almost 50% of SIDS cases occur when the infant is bed-sharing with an adult, highlighting the need for further investigation of this issue. Objective: To evaluate the effect of bed-sharing during the last sleep period on risk factors for SIDS in Irish infants. Design: An eight year (1994 – 2001) population based case control study of 287 SIDS cases and 831 controls matched for date and place of birth and sleep period.
