.... the girl's feelings. He seems to be selfish and overbearing. He keeps telling her that he wants what is best for her, but yet he always adds that he knows it will be perfectly simple. In the midst of their conversation the man says, "If you don't want to you don't have to. I wouldn't have you do it if you don't want to. But I know it's perfectly simple." This tactic leaves the girl with all the guilt to deal with afterwards. If she does feel guilty afterwards, the man can say that he told her she did not have to, forgetting that he added after every sentence that he knew it would be perfectly simple. The man pretends that he does not care if the girl does not have the ....

.... Therefore it is hard for a Japanese man to learn to be independent. After he gets married, he now relies on his bride for having foods, doing laundry, and many other things. Takeo Doi explains it with the term of amae that means the seeking or causing of oneself to be loved, nurtured, and indulged. He says it is an active attempt to make oneself into a passive love object. One reason why a man continues depending on someone else is that he has been witnessed what his parents have been done and now he considers himself as a head of his own family. In case of woman, it is difficult to keep her job after the marriage, because she needs to take care of her child, whic ....

.... our beliefs, and they are: 1. Method of Tenacity If all we need is a settled opinion, then why don't we just pick an answer that we like and just stick with it? This way of fixating belief is impossible, as we would have to live like hermits. Living in a social setting, our beliefs would be challenged by those that we interact with in our daily lives. 2. Method of Authority Once the state/church reaches a settled opinion, then let them teach that belief and have those who reject it be terrified into silence. This method has been much more successful than the method of tenacity historically. For most people, this is the method that they use to fix their beliefs, ....

.... I asked myself exactly how we have achieved ‘civilized chaos' in the search for our solutions and resolutions of the very ‘virus' it seems we have caused. I would not of course go so far as to say a civil war between the generations within this house, but moreover to express that simply by me using philosophy, it becomes not only my benefit, but a mutualism between us. Please feel more than obliged to correct me if I am incorrect (morally or politically) but are we not all philosophers ourselves? As a baker's vocation is to bake, a philosopher's vocation is to think. Is it not that we all think? I was deeply saddened at your comments in the oppression and restrict ....

.... parent, the child and the environment. Most of the time parents who abuse their children, were also abused as children and that their experience of being parented often included a high level of family violence. There is a link between domestic violence and child abuse. In many families where spouse abuse occurs, children are also victims of physical violence. American studies indicate that about one third of adults who abuse their spouse also abuse their children. Australian research suggests that this figure may be higher. F thermore, children are likely to be at greater risk of physical abuse by mothers who are being physically abused by a spouse than children living in ....

.... Even if one has a good mind, trying to study in a gang-ridden neighborhood with constant gunfire isn't easy. With both parents working two jobs, there isn't any parental guidance. Whereas, the affluent, even if busy or working, have the means to insure that their children are supervised and well taken care of. The rich also have the luxury of affording special tutors to help their children while other children are on their own. For example, there are three students, one from a clean, upper-class community, another from a small, middle-class suburb and the other from a graffiti-ridden slum. All three of these students have exceptional GPA's and scored very well on standard ....

.... I believe that this difficulty has to do with the multiculturalism that exists in this country. The United States doesn't have a unique culture. In fact it is the world's most multicultural country. The country has a lot of different cultures, and not one is similar to the others. No culture is better or worse than another. USA is different from other countries because that in this country are living representatives of all cultures. It is normal to meet people from all over the world in most every city; what is not normal is the idea of understanding that a lot of people are Americans, people born and raised in the US. These citizens might not seem to be Americans, ....

.... domestic violence become "the issue du jour." When Simpson was arrested on New Years Day for beating his wife, none of the newspapers reported it. When he pleaded no contest five months later, there was a small brief in the second page of The Los Angeles Times' Metro Section (Cart). In the last three years alone the list of the accused included Dante Bichette, Barry Bonds, John Daly, Scottie Pippen, Jose Conseco, Bobby Cox, Mike Tyson, Warren Moon, Michael Cooper, Darryl Strawberry, Duane Causwell, Olden Polynice, Robert Parish, and OJ Simpson( Callahan, Sports Ilustrated). And these are only the pro athletes whose wives had the courage to report the violence. Madeline Popa ....
