PART I KEY CONCEPTS Introduction Parenting, child-rearing, care-giving, and parenting education are key concepts that can impact child outcomes. Therefore, it is imperative to provide definitions of each concept before learning about “parenting.” I invite you to critically think about each concept and analyze how the information within this book can be applied to each of these words. Parenting is a process of raising, promoting, and supporting the physical, emotional, social, and cognitive development of a child to adulthood and across the lifespan. 1 Child-rearing is oftentimes defined interchangeably with parenting. However, there are many non- parental figures (e.g., society, day care providers, teachers, governments) who offer similar types of care without being a child’s legal “parent.” 2 Care-giving is the act of assuming the main responsibilities for someone who cannot provide all basic needs for oneself. Examples might include a parent, day care provider, trained professional, or Figure 1. A family celebrating graduation. family member. 3 Parenting education is a process that can help caregivers (and prospective caregivers) understand how to provide developmentally-appropriate care in a safe, loving, nurturing, and stable environment that contributes to a child’s positive health and well-being. Successful parenting education provides participants with individualized, culturally-relevant knowledge, resources, strategies, tools, networking support, and guidance regarding best-practice approaches to child- rearing. The goals of parenting education include caregivers learning and implementing this 1. Brooks, J. B. (2012). The process of parenting: Ninth edition. McGraw-Hill Higher Education. 2. Abrahan, H.

Therefore, these processes should be examined within the contexts of social, economic, historical, and psychological factors related to individuals, families, communities, and cultures. 7 Across the world, a variety of definitions exist for many topics concerning “parenting” and “family.” For instance, the European Court of Human Rights jurisprudence recommends that “family” be defined on culturally-sensitive and case-by-case bases by giving consideration to the personal ties between the persons concerned.8 Further, it is fairly-well agreed upon that those who work with children and families embrace, respect, and understand that subjective definitions of these concepts (a) exist within and between individuals, cultures, and organizations (e.g., UNICEF, U.S. Census Bureau, etc.), (b) can change over time, and (c) are based on personal experiences, views, values, beliefs, historical time and place, culture, etc.9 Throughout this entire book, it should be assumed that the following terms are defined as follows: Parent: The words, “family member,” “primary caregiver,” and/or “parent” will be used interchangeably

    ATTACHMENT, LOCUS OF CONTROL, AND ROMANTIC INTIMACY IN ADULT CHILDREN OF ALCOHOLICS: A CORRELATIONAL INVESTIGATION by Raffaela Peter A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The College of Education in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida December 2012 Copyright Raffaela Peter 2012 ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my family members and friends for their continuous support and understanding during this process of self-exploration which oftentimes called for sacrifices on their part. Not to be forgotten is the presence of a very special family member, Mr. Kitty, who silently and patiently witnessed all colors and shapes of my affective rainbow. Val Santiago Stanley has shown nothing but pure, altruistic friendship for which I will be forever grateful. The appreciation is extended to Val’s Goddesses Club and its members who passionately give to others in the community. Many thanks go out to Jackie and Julianne who, with true owl spirit and equipped with appropriate memorabilia, lent an open ear and heart at all times. Thank you to my committee who provided me with guidance and knowledge throughout my journey at Florida Atlantic University. Most of them I have known for nearly a decade, a timeframe that has allowed me to grow as an individual and professional. To Dr. Paul Ryan Peluso, my mentor and fellow Avenger, thank you for believing in me and allowing me to “act as if”; your metaphors helped me more than you will ever know. You are a great therapist and educator, and I admire your dedication to the profession.

    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.

MATRIFOCALITY AND WOMEN'S POWER ON THE MISKITO COAST1 Laura Hobson Herlihy University of Kansas Miskitu women in the village of Kuri (northeastern Honduras) live in matrilocal groups, while men work as deep-water lobster divers. Data reveal that with the long-term presence of the international lobster economy, Kuri has become increasingly matrilocal, matrifocal, and matrilineal. Female-centered social practices in Kuri represent broader patterns in Middle America caused by indigenous men's participation in the global economy. Indigenous women now play heightened roles in preserving cultural, linguistic, and social identities. (Gender, power, kinship, Miskitu women, Honduras) Along the Miskito Coast of northeastern Honduras, indigenous Miskitu men have participated in both subsistence-based and outside economies since the colonial era. For almost 200 years, international companies hired Miskitu men as wage- laborers in "boom and bust" extractive economies, including gold, bananas, and mahogany.

    Theorists and Theories of Child Development Learner Support Handbook

    Theorists and Theories of Child Development Learner Support Handbook Supporting the development of your career Introduction This information guide is designed to support the knowledge and understanding of child development, in particular the theories and theorists behind these. It details it looks at the seven most popular theorists and the research carried out by them to highlight the many fascinating ways in which children develop and learn Child development theories focus on explaining how children change and grow over the course of childhood. Such theories centre on various aspects of development including social, emotional and cognitive growth. The study of human development is a rich and varied subject. We all have personal experience with development, but it is sometimes difficult to understand: How and why people grow, learn, and act as they do. Why do children behave in certain ways? Is their behaviour related to their age, family relationships, or individual temperament? Developmental psychologists strive to answer such questions as well as to understand, explain, and predict behaviours that occur throughout the lifespan. In order to understand human development, a number of different theories of child development have arisen to explain various aspects of human growth. The guide covers the following theorists and details each of their theories: 1. Freud’s Psychosexual Developmental Theory 2. Erikson's Psychosocial Developmental Theory 3. Piaget's Cognitive Developmental Theory 4. Bowlby's Attachment Theory 5. Bandura's Social Learning Theory 6. Vygotsky's Sociocultural Theory Supporting the development of your career Child Development Theories: A Background Theories of development provide a framework for thinking about human growth and learning.
