A Phenomenological Exploration of the Experience of Parenting Half-Siblings Within a Blended Family A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Antioch University Seattle Seattle, WA In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree Doctor of Psychology By Nicole Josephsen January 2015 A Phenomenological Exploration of the Experience of Parenting Half-Siblings Within a Blended Family This dissertation, by Nicole Josephsen, has been approved by the committee members signed below who recommend that it be accepted by the faculty of the Antioch University Seattle at Seattle, WA in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PSYCHOLOGY Dissertation Committee: Liang Tien ___________________________ Liang Tien, Psy.D., ABPP Chairperson Molly Reid ___________________________ Molly Reid, Ph.D., ABPP Tona McGuire ___________________________ Tona McGuire, Ph.D. February 10, 2015 ___________________________ Date ii © Copyright by Nicole Josephsen, 2015 All Rights Reserved iii Abstract A Phenomenological Exploration of the Experience of Parenting Half-Siblings Within a Blended Family Nicole Josephsen Antioch University Seattle Seattle, WA Blended families are a growing population and encompass a diversity of characteristics and family types. Among the different types of blended families are those with both stepchildren and mutual children. Research on the complex experience of parenting a mutual genetic child and a stepchild within a blended family is minimal. To better understand the unknown experience of such parents, this phenomenological study was conducted to provide an in depth description of the experience of simultaneously parenting mutual children and stepchildren within a blended family. In this phenomenological study the researcher conducted interviews with six participants who varied by gender, socioeconomic status, and age. The researcher followed Giorgi’s (2009) phenomenological method of data analysis. The findings of this study fit into six themes about these parents’ experiences of parenting half-siblings, including: I can parent, My children get along, We miss you, Let’s talk, It’s challenging and rewarding, and Different experiences. Among the conclusions of this research was the high value parents placed on the half-sibling relationship. Parents shared observations about their stepchildren taking time to adjust to the birth of the mutual child, half-siblings missing each other during visitations, and helping their mutual children navigate their experience and understanding of the stepchild’s visitations. Thus this research provided a rich iv description of the experience of parenting stepchildren and mutual children within a blended family. Such information might help inform custody arrangements as they affect the half-sibling relationship, evidence-based interventions, and family education in support of parents in blended families.

    Design and Production of a UM Photo Album by Daniel Kennedy David Johnson A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of Mississippi in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College. Oxford May 2018 Approved by ___________________________________ Advisor: Dr. Jack McClurg ___________________________________ Reader: Dr. Matt O’Keefe ___________________________________ Reader: Dr. Jeremy Griffin Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank all the CME faculty and staff that made this project possible. Without their commitment to the students and the program, projects like this one would never make if off the ground. The authors would like to extend special thanks to Richard Hairston who served as a technical advisor for the project. Special thanks also the CME professors Dr. Vaughn, Dr. McClurg, and Ms. Watanabe. Their guidance was invaluable when the team found itself deep in the weeds. Lastly the authors would like to thank their amazing team that made this idea come to life. Their hard work made this endeavor successful. ii Abstract The following project attempted to design and manufacture a wooden photo album. The final product needed to fully satisfy customer demands as well as turn a profit. The development proceeded in two phases. The design phase sought to take the product from ideation to a fully viable final design for manufacturing. The manufacturing phase sought to create a production process that would both meet customer demands in an efficient and waste-free way. This would be accomplished by implementing principles of Project Management, Toyota Production System, and LEAN. The final product was successfully designed and produced to be a high-end oak photo album with leather and brass accenting.

  • Improving the Protection and Fair Treatment of Unaccompanied Children: Recommendations for the Next Administration
    Improving the Protection and Fair Treatment of Unaccompanied Children: Recommendations for the Next Administration October 2016 Headquarters: 1300 L St. NW – Suite 1100 – Washington, DC - 20005 Phone: 202-824-8680 E-Mail: [email protected] www.supportkind.org Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) Improving Protection and Fair Treatment Vision Statement KIND serves as the leading organization for the protection of children who enter the U.S. immigration system alone and strives to ensure that no such child appears in immigration court without representation. We achieve fundamental fairness through high-quality legal representation and by advancing the child’s best interests, safety, and well-being. KIND was founded by the Microsoft Corporation and UNHCR Special Envoy Angelina Jolie, and is the leading national organization that works to ensure that no refugee or immigrant child faces immigration court alone. We do this in partnership with over 335 law firms, corporate legal departments, law schools, and bar associations, which provide pro bono representation to unaccompanied children referred to KIND for assistance in their deportation proceedings. KIND has received nearly 13,000 child referrals since we opened our doors in 2009 and trained over 14,000 pro bono attorneys. KIND also helps children who are returning to their home countries through deportation or voluntary departure to do so safely and to reintegrate into their home communities. KIND also advocates to change law, policy, and practice to improve the protection of unaccompanied children in the United States, and is working to build a stronger regional protection framework throughout Central America and Mexico. We educate policymakers, the media, and the broader public about the violence that is driving children out of the Northern Triangle and their need for protection.

  • Say Cheese and Die!
    SAY CHEESE AND DIE! Goosebumps - 04 R.L. Stine (An Undead Scan v1.5) 1 1 “There’s nothing to do in Pitts Landing,” Michael Warner said, his hands shoved into the pockets of his faded denim cutoffs. “Yeah. Pitts Landing is the pits,” Greg Banks said. Doug Arthur and Shari Walker muttered their agreement. Pitts Landing Is The Pits. That was the town slogan, according to Greg and his three friends. Actually, Pitts Landing wasn’t much different from a lot of small towns with quiet streets of shady lawns and comfortable old houses. But here it was, a balmy fall afternoon, and the four friends were hanging around Greg’s driveway, kicking at the gravel, wondering what to do for fun and excitement. “Let’s go to Grover’s and see if the new comic books have come in,” Doug suggested. “We don’t have any money, Bird,” Greg told him. Everyone called Doug “Bird”, because he looked a lot like a bird. A better nickname might have been “Stork”. He had long, skinny legs and took long, storklike steps. Under his thick tuft of brown hair, which he seldom brushed, he had small, birdlike brown eyes and a long nose that curved like a beak. Doug didn’t really like being called Bird, but he was used to it. “We can still look at the comics,” Bird insisted. “Until Grover starts yelling at you,” Shari said. She puffed out her cheeks and did a pretty good imitation of the gruff store owner: “Are you paying or staying?” “He thinks he’s cool,” Greg said, laughing at her imitation.
