A case of the giveies that snarl standardized an electric serpent slithered up her spine. She went up the stairs, light on the b exclusivelys of her feet, ready. She h eard every tick in the a fiberment, the refrigerator motor, floorboards shifting, the huge cat Chet snoring in the bedroom, and, of course, some unmatchedness breathing.The lights were dark. He was sitting in a lotvas sling- hold chair, barefoot, in a bitstock of Tommys jeans and a T-shirt, drying his hair with a towel. Jody stopped by the kitchen.Fledgling, said the vampire. Im ever pleasantly surprised when I am reminded of how delight inly you are.

She felt herself tightening down, the electric jangle channeling itself into an awareness, an edge. It wasnt fear anymore, it was readiness.An repellent unmatched, yes. I assume your atomic servant is safe for now.Well, you know, she was winded for a few minutes from kicking your ass, simply she is further a little girl.The vampire laughed, and Jody couldnt help hardly smile. She went to the windows at the front of the loft and opened them. Smells like ruin meat in here.Shell digest to go, you know, said the vampire, salvage smiling.No, she wont, Jody turned on her heel. Faced him.Of course she will. All of them scarce you. Im variety show of tired of being alone, little one. You plenty come away with me, mediocre as we planned.Jody was stunned at his density.

What will you do, Jody? scarcely we arent the completely ones of our kind.We are the wholly ones you need solicitude ab discoer. You do know that you are the first new vampire in a 100 years?Jody act non to show her surprise. How happy for me, she said.Oh, youre not the only one Ive turned. Ive turned gentle existences gentle troopsy. Youre the only one who could hold up the change with her mind intact. The others had to be, well, decommissioned.You killed them?Yes. But not you. Help me clean up and then well pop off, to enamorher.Clean up?There are certain rules, love. Rules that I set down myself, and the first of them is make no more vampires. however youve let loose a storm of fledglings, and they all fuck off to be cleaned up, including your boy pet. apply no more?

I throw resources you couldnt imagine.Youre wearing stolen jeans, sugar daddy.Well, yes, I will have to make my way to one of my caches.I have an idea, Jody said, and this was genuinely the reason she had come here, by herself, knowing that he would be here. Or at least hoping. How to the highest degree I give you enough bullion to disembowel you fall out of town and you do that, just like we promised Rivera and Cavuto? You leave me alone, you leave Tommy alone, you just leave.Elijah stood now, tossed the towel on the chai r, and passd to her so apace that she could barely even design him move. Art, music, literature, said Elijah. Desire, passion, power the best of man and the best of beast. Together. You would say no to that?He put his hand on her cheek and she let him.Love? Jody said, looking into his eyes they reflected like drops of hydrargyrum in her night vision.For fairy tales. We are the stuff from which nightmares are made. Make nightmares with me.Wow, nice offer. Cant imagine why you havent had any takers for a hundred years. Jody grabbed his wrist. If he wouldnt leave, she could take him. She was a vampire, too.The vampire had been smiling, just now his smile changed aspect, going from blissful to predatory. So be it, then.His hand was at her neck in an instant, she didnt see him move or have a chance to react. Suddenly she couldnt move her arms or legs, and there was an intense pain behind her ear and under her jaw. She screamed, releasing a sound she couldnt imagine advent out of a human, more like something youd try on from a tortured cat. He clamped his other hand everyplace her mouth.I didnt teach you everything in our one night together, love.She checked helplessly as he tossed his head back and his rootergs unsheathed. troy weight Lee firmd off against Drew at the end of the dog-food aisle, two short fighting swords in hand.Bring it, stoner, Troy Lee said. He spun the swords. Drew fell into a crouch by the dishwashing liquids.Im debased now, Drew said.Uh-huh, Troy said. He whipped the swords with the air in a deadly fanning motion. Hed been training since he was a child he wasnt afraid, especially of Drew.Hey, came a fair sexs voice from correctly beside him. Troy Lee looked oer, lightning quick, just in eon to register what looked like a full moon coming at his face.There was a loud clang and Troy was to the highest degree flipped everyplace backwards when the iron skillet hit him in the forehead. gloomful let it drop to her side and grinn ed at Drew. Ive eer wanted to do that.Housewares apply to be my aisle, Drew said.Take him, said Blue. Let him draw some of your blood beforehand he dies. She headed toward a commotion in the can aisle. Save some, boys. Mamas got a broken nose that needs to heal.Jody felt her own fangs extend and her kneecaps quiver as Elijah fed on her, plainly otherwise she couldnt move. How could she have been so stupid? He was eight hundred years old of course he hadnt taught her everything. Of course he was stronger than she was she was stronger than Tommy, and she had only been a vampire a couple of months longer than he had.If she could perplex conscious, maybe when he stopped feeding she could make her move. Could he reduce her to dust like a human, or would he have to do something else? Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Why didnt she know all of this? Why wasnt she acting on full? Where was the predator mind when you needed it?Her vision started to tunnel down she was losing consciousness. She could hear rapid footsteps outside, though. First below, then crosswise the street, then below again. Elijah perceive them, too, and he loosened his grip for an instant, nevertheless before she could twist away, his fingers dig into her neck and jaw again. Then a black blur flew through the window and she hear something thud on the floor all over by the kitchen. There was another loud thud and Elijah released her and she fell to the floor. She tried to uphold herself up, but something was thrown over her and she perceive a buzzing sound. She heard screaming and smelled burning flesh, glass breaking, then someone was lifting her, gondolarying her. She couldnt move or even fight anymore. She let go, let herself float away, but the finish thing she heard was a girls voice saying, Did you feed Chet?The Emperor sit down on the curtsy of the St. Francis Yacht Club, watching the blurriness wash over the breakwater. Hed gone against the advice of the homicide detectives and ha d go away the grocery origin. It was his city, and it was his place to take the battle to its attackers. He had cowered in fear long enough. His wickedly pointed sword lay on the dock at his side. The men, Bummer and Lazarus, were sleeping in a fuzzy locoweed at his back.Ah, gentle warriors, how do we engage in battle when our opposition moves with such elegant stealth? Perhaps we should return to the Safeway and help defend.Bummers left ear twitched, and he let out a muffled neck ruff in his sleep.A thick bank of fog was moving down from the opening in the breakwater and it caught the Emperors attention because it appeared to be moving crosswise the wind from the west. Yes, it was indeed the cold breeze was coming straight over the breakwater from the north. The fog bank bubbled thick as it moved, tendrils reached out and then were reabsorbed like the false feet of some crawling creature.The Emperor climbed to his feet and roused the men, snatched Bummer up before the sleepy t errier could get his bearings, and headed toward the clubhouse with Lazarus at his heels. He crouched in a shadow by the entrance to the restrooms, belongings the hounds as he watched.The fog bank enveloped the end of the dock, paused, then dissipated as if a fan had been turned on it, and three tall figures stood on the dock, a man and two women. They wore long coats, cashmere, the Emperor thought, but he couldnt for the life of him amaranthineize why he might know that. They moved down the dock toward him as if they were floating. The Emperor could see their outlines in the moonlight jawlines and cheekbones that looked as if theyd been chiseled, square shoulders, and narrow hips. They might have been brother and sisters, except one of the women was of African descent, the other looked like she might be Italian or Greek. The man was a head taller than the women and looked Nordic, perhaps German, with close-cropped white hair. All were as demented as bleached bone.As they passe d him the Emperor pulled the hounds closer and Bummer let out a threatening ruff.They stopped. The man turned. How long have you been here? he asked.Forever, I think, said the Emperor.The man smiled and nodded, then turned and was on his way. I know how you feel, he said without looking back.Gustavo and Jeff found Barry hiding in the shelves among the toilet-paper packages. When they got close, Barry burst out of the TP and made a run for the end of the aisle, wrench napkins, aluminum foil, garbage bags, and p determinationic silverware off the shelves as he went to lento his pursuers. Gustavo went down first, slipping on a package of plastic forks. Jeff high through the obstacles and was right on Barrys ass until he was almost to the end of the aisle and thresh stepped out holding one of Barrys digguns.Down pip barked, and Barry hit the tile on his chest and slid.There was a pneumatic hiss and the overburdened stainless spear thudded into Jeffs sternum and blew him back off his feet.Ow, goddammit, said the power forward, clutching at the spear and trying to pull it out of his chest.Gustavo climbed to his feet, ran to Jeff, and started yanking on the spear.Lash handed Barry a four-foot-long stick with a frank metal tip on it and fitted another spear into the gun.That the last one? Barry asked.Lash nodded. Wheres Clint?Just then the tall blond woman appeared at the far end of the aisle, dragging an unconscious Clint by his collar. A ample bloodstain ran from her chin to her crotch and they could see her fangs even from this distance. Bad boys. Leaving your reborn lying on the floor where passel can trip over him.She dropped Clint on his face, and headed up the aisle toward them, in long, slow strides.Lash bolted, Barry right behind them, through the canvas doors into the back room, and into the walk-in dairy cooler. It was like a long hallway with plastic milk boxes stacked on one side and the glass dairy cases on the other. They pushed stacks of hea vy one-gallon milk boxes in front of the door, then leaned with their backs against the back of the cooler, watching the store through the clear cooler doors in the dairy case, over the cartons of yoghurt and cottage cheese.Whats that shes carrying? Barry asked.A frying pan, Lash said.Oh, Barry said Sorry I let her in. She was almost naked.How could you have known?Well, when she claimed she had a nooky-gram for my birthday, I should have figured something was up.Your birthdays like in March, isnt it?Yeah.Lash slapped Barry hard once on his bare scalp, then re-aimed the speargun over the yogurts.I deserved that, Barry said.Think that spear hit Jeffs brass?Had to. Its a foot through his sternum.He doesnt wait dead.Guess that means head shot. Barry shook his head. You want me to try?Nah, if I miss, you have the bang stick. Lash nodded at the long stick Barry was holding at port arms. Es moveially it was a twelve-gauge shotgun shell on the end of a stick, used for killing sharks. Yo u poked them with it and the shotgun shell discharged into them at point-blank range.Ill bet she doesnt even know what it is.Get it right, Lash said. Blow her fucking brains out. They looked at each other as they heard the refrigeration compressors and fans wind down. Then the lights went out.Were fucked, Lash said.Yep, Barry agreed.Chapter ThirtyBeing the Chronicles of Abby practiceDark and Mysterious Goddess of Forbidden LoveDont judge me. I have looked death in the face and made him my bitch I did what I did out of love, and I dont want to sound conceited, but OMG, we are heroes And when I say we, I mean us.Had I told you before, you would have called me losah pronounced me cheerful and cute beyond redemption, but now that I am rock-steady in my own nefarious love lair and whatnot, I can at last confess, that in my naive youth, my favorite literary suit was not the tentacled horror Cthulu from Lovecraft as I previously declared in AP English 235, but, in fact, Pippi Longstoc king. Before you condemn me for my Pippism, check it outPippi drank a lot of coffee. (Because, like me, she was wise.)Pippi had unnaturally red hair (as I, myself have had, upon occasion).Pippi often wore long, stripy socks (as yours truly has been known to do).Pippi had superhuman strength. (It could happen.)Pippi kicked ass. (Not unlike your humbled narrator.)Pippi was a kid who lived without parents in her own house. (Go, girl)With a monkey. (Havent you always wanted a monkey?)What Longstockings did not have, was the coolest cyber-ninja-sex-magic boyfriend to ever allay the world and whatnot. (Props to Pip, but girlfriend needed some yang to rock her yin.)Steve. My darling, my love,My heart is aflameBut OMFG, Steve,I grieve,That youre nameIs so fucking lame.I call him Foo red hot, because he guards the gate of my temple, if you know what I mean. Im wearing the pileus he made me right now. I had it on when they came for me, but thats not the thing. The thing is, I didnt save m yself, I saved love.So, that night, after I told the Countess how my sweet Foo Dog saved me from the vampyre, the Countess said she was going to go back to the loft to get some money and feed Chet and get the last of Williams blood for Lord alluvium, for their love is truly eternal. And Jared and I were like, Well go, too, but the Countess sent us back to liberate the vampyre scarf out from Jareds basement and his hideous family. So we were all, Well, ok.But when we got to Jareds house, run was totally gone. And then Steve I mean Foo Dog called me and he was all, Im getting off work early, I dont want to leave you out there unprotected.So I told him where we were. Then Lord gourmandize comes walking out of the dark and hes all, What? What? What?And Im all, The Countess went back to the loft.And hes all, She is in danger. We must away.And I was like, Chill thee thus, for my sweet love-ninja is on the way in his fly ride.So Flood was like, Kay.I see now that my attraction to t he vampyre Flood was cryptograph more than childish infatuation, never to be requited, because he had eyes only for the Countess.So it was a little awkward when Steve showed up and I had to winding-clothes the Lord Flood and make him sit in the backseat to show that my legitimate affections were with Foo Dog, who was formerly known as Steve.And when we got to the loft, the windows were open, but there were no lights on. And Flood had us drive a block past, then we got out and he walked back. Then he runs up and hes like, Elijahs up there. Hes got her.And Im all, Then go get her.And Steve is like, No, Ill go get her. And he pulls this long coat out of the trunk.Its all covered with warts or something, and Im like, Nice coat, but you know, vampyreAnd Steve is like, Theyre UV LEDs. Like the lights we burned the vampires with before.And Im like, SweetSo Steve starts to put the coat on and Flood cabbage him and goes, Hell hear you coming up the stairs. Ill go.And Steve is all, You can t. It will burn you, too.And Flood is all, No it wont.So they are like five minutes behind the car putting together this ber-cool ensem of like an old gas mask, and a hoodie, and full-on gloves and everything, until Flood is totally covered, wearing the long coat with the glass warts all over it, looking like one of the cenobites from Hellraiser.And Steve is like, Dont hit the switch until you know shes covered. And he hands Flood like a black rubber tarp and a baseball bat, which totally sucked the cool right out of the ensem, but I guess was necessary.Then, just when Im somewhat to ask how hes going to get in without being heard, we hear the Countess scream, and Flood runs across the street and about halfway up the side of the building, then turns and runs down it, then across the street, up the side of his building, and goes through the window feet fucking first.And Im like, Whoa.And Steve and Jared are like, Whoa.And a second later we hear a thumping, and purple light comes on in the loft windows and the old vampyre comes crashing through the windows on fucking fire, locomote like a comet And he lands on his feet in the middle of the street, hisses once and looks at us, and thats when Steve holds up one of his UV floodlights, and the vampyre fucking scrams down the path across the street so fast that he was just a blur.Next thing, Flood is coming out of the building carrying the Countess, who is wrapped in the black rubber tarp and is totally roofied like a hitch rag. And Steves all, Get her in the car.And Im like, Did you feed Chet?And Jared is like, Hello, Abby, the other vampyres.So Im like, Shut up. I know. So we all piled into Steves car and we took Flood and the Countess to a hotel off up on Van Ness, which Steve paid for with his Visa, which was generous and mature of him.It was one of those motels where you have your own entrance to the parking lot so they dont see you in the hallway, so Flood carried the Countess up to the room, and we carried some stuff that Steve had packed up in the trunk of his car.It was so sad. Flood just stroked the Countesss cheek and tried to get her to wake up, but she wouldnt. And he was all, Abby, she needs to feed. I wouldnt ask, but hes done something to her, shes hurt.And I would have totally done it, but Steve pulled me back, and he picks up this playmate cooler that he had us bring up, and he pulls out these pouches of blood.And he hands them to Flood and says, I took them from the university hospital. They could kick me out of school for this.And Flood is all, Thanks. And he bites a hole in one of the pouches and squeezes it on the Countesss lips and thats when I started to cry.There were like four pouches, and when he was going for the last one, Steve was like, You need to drink that one.And Flood was like, No way, its for her.And Steve was like, You know you do.So Flood like nodded and drank the last one himself, and then he just sat there by her, stroking her hair.Then Steve was like , Tommy, you know I can reverse your vampirism. Im pretty sure the process works.And Flood just looked at him and nodded. It was so sad. And then the Countess started to moan, and she opened her eyes and she saw the vampyre Flood and she was all, Hey, baby. Just like that. And I started crying again like a big wuss and Steve took Jared and me out to the car to give them some space.And Steve was like, I made this for you from my jacket. And he put this leather motorcycle jacket on me that was covered with those glass LED thingies. It was kinda heavy, because there were batteries built into the padding, but cool. And he was all, This will keep you safe. The switch is in the snap on the left cuff. Just squeeze it and the lights will come on. They wont hurt you, but you should wear sunglasses to protect your retinas. Then he put a pair of totally cyber wraparound sunglasses on me and kissed me. And I kissed him back, hard, with major tongue, and lastly he pulled away, as gentle as a but terfly. So then I slapped him, so he wouldnt think I was a slut. But so he wouldnt think I was being frigid, I sort of jumped on him and wrapped my legs around him and sort of by the way rode him to the ground and was accidentally kind of dry-humping him on the pavement when the lights on my jacket came on and people looked out their hotel windows and whatnot, so Jared ended our special romantic moment by hitting my light switch and dragging me off.And I was all, You are THE MAN, FooAnd he was all, Huh? Because I hadnt told him yet that his new name was Foo Dog.But then he said he actually had to get home and check in or his parents would freak out. And said to watch the masters until I got back, if I got a chance try to talk them into being converted. So we made out on the hood of the Honda for a while and he brood off into nights cold loneliness like the superhero that he is. (The effect was ruined, kind of, in that Jared caught a ride with him.)So I went back on a higher floor and sat at the foot of the masters bed, keeping guard and listening to them.They were public lecture softly, but I could hear them.The vampyre Flood was all, Maybe we should give it a try.And the Countess was all, What, the cure? Tommy, it cant work. Youve seen what I can do, you know what you can do. This isnt biology, this is magic.Maybe its not. Maybe its science we dont know yet.It doesnt matter. We dont even know if it works.We should try.Why would we try, Tommy? Youve only been immortal for a couple of weeks. Do you want to give up the power, the I dont know the command over your world?Well yes.You do?Yeah. I dont like it, Jody. I dont like being afraid all the time. I dont like being alone. I dont like being a killer.That woman was torturing you, Tommy. Thats never going to happen again.Thats wasnt the enigma. Id get over her. The problem was that I liked it. I liked it.Then the Countess was quiet for a while, and I thought it might be dawn or something, but I peeked ov er the edge of the bed and she was just staring into his eyes. She looked over at me.Hey, girlie girl, the Countess said, and she smiled at me and it felt like a gift or something. It was like, real. Then she took her watch off and threw it to me at the end of the bed. That has an automatic almanac in it how about you set the alarm to go off about twenty minutes before sunset, so you dont get caught out again, okay? And I was going to tell her about the jacket that Foo made for me, but I kind of couldnt talk, so I just nodded and put the watch on and slid back down to the floor.Then I heard the Countess go, You arent alone. Im here. We can go where no one knows us, no one is chasing us, and Ill always be here for you.And he goes, I know. I mean alone from everyone else. Separate. I want to be human, not some foul dead thing.I thought you wanted to be special.I do, but I want to be human special because of something I did.Then it was quiet for a while, and finally the Countess goe s, I love it, Tommy. Im not afraid all the time like you just the opposite. I didnt realize how afraid I used to be until I became like this. I like walking the street knowing that Im the Alpha animal, hearing and seeing and smelling everything, being part of everything. I like it. I wanted to share that with you.Its okay. You couldnt have known.I dont want to be alone either. Thats why I turned you. I love you.Then the alarm went off on Lord Floods watch, and he shut it off.Then hes all, We cant go back to the way it was, before, I mean? Where I look after you?Its not the same world, Tommy. You know that now. We were in the same room in different worlds.Okay then. I love you, Jody.I love you, too, goes the Countess.Then they didnt say anything for a long time, and when my new watch showed that the sun was up, I looked, and they were lying there, holding each other, and I could see the red stains on the pillow from their tears.And I was like, Oh, hell no

Gender Differences Essay

In the excerpt from the book, Men atomic number 18 from Mars, Wo hands Are from Venus, author John Gray discusses the stark differences among men and women. He states that the personality traits between men and women are so dissimilar, that each energize might as well have originated from the planets, Mars and Venus, respectively. He explains that men value power and achievement, and they choose certain occupations and offer others solutions to their problems ground on these values. Comparatively, women believe chat and relationships are more than than important, and they desire empathy when they interact with others.He details that these different character traits often ca function confusion and communication barriers between men and women. Grays excerpt explains his comical explanation of male and female personalities however, it is a broad assumption to say that alone men and women behave in a certain modal value altogether based on their gender. The stereotypes that Gr ay specifically utilizes in his excerpt exaggerate the complex interactions between men and women instead of showing their differing emotional results based on particular stains. The two emotional responses that Gray does not equaln are strive and ire.The male and female pitions to these emotions offer the best pillowcase of the differences between the sexes. More often than not, men and women respond to focusing in different ways. Women tend to externalize their feelings when they deal with nerve-wracking situations. They often reveal in their significant other, friends, and family as an outlet for the tense up in their life. Typically, one time a woman has effectively deliberated and discussed her feelings and issues regarding stress, she often feels punter about the stressful situation.In her book, You Just Dont Understand, expert Deborah Tannen similarly explains that women use complaining as a way to feel close to others. She calls this way of conversing troubles talk. She says, For women, talking about troubles is the essence of connection. I tell you my troubles, you tell me your troubles, and were close. (61). A perfect example of this can be seen with my interactions with my close friend, Lindsey. She pass on frequently need to call me and vent about her relationship woes. She uses our conversations to jock talk through her stressful situations and will ultimately feel better following our calls.I will tend to use conversations with my mother or sister to vent about my stress, as well. Conversely, men often assign their emotional responses to stress. Men tend to reserve their emotions internally and use heterogeneous non-stressful activities as distractions to occupy themselves, such as watching sports or vie video games. A prime example of the male response to stress can be seen when my boyfriend is stressed from work. When he comes home after a stressful day, he will play video games for hours to wait on relieve his stress. Aft er playing these games, he will feel frequently better.When I recognize that he is stressed, I usually ask him if he would like to discuss his situations he usually responds by saying that he is fine and he just needs some time alone. I have too noticed a similar response to stress in other men such as my coworkers, fellow students, and my brothers and father. This unique male response to stress demonstrates the difference from the female stress response. another(prenominal) emotional situation in which men and women have a inclination of an orbit to respond differently is exasperation. Although each person reacts to anger in their testify way, men and women will generally react to anger in a different manner.Women, including myself, will often react to anger by separate themselves from the initial anger trigger and think through their emotional response prior to any actions. Simply put, think first, and act later. For example, my mothers response to anger follows the said(pr enominal) format. Her initial response involves removing herself from the anger remark where she can better collect herself. After assessing the situation which generated my mothers anger response, she will respond in a more orthodox and appropriate manner. Conversely, men have a propensity to react to anger in a much different way.When in an emotional situation that causes anger, men are more inclined to violence and can be quick to react by demonstrating their anger in a more physical manner. They often act this way because they are trying to elicit they are manly or powerful. Gray explains that, men are incessantly doing things to prove themselves and to develop their power and skills (695). A great example of this commons male response can be seen with my brother, Sam. When angered, Sam tends to react like most males when experiencing anger. His initial reaction to anger typically is demonstrated by a violent motion by hitting an object.This is usually followed by a more th oughtful and collected response after the initial outburst. These reactions to anger demonstrate the differing emotional responses between men and women which can be seen throughout society on a frequent basis. Despite the differing reactions to stress and anger mentioned above, men and women can also respond in a similar manner. Since no two individuals are the same, it is important to understand that the aforementioned examples are not the only reactions that men and women can portray. Stress and anger are natural human emotions that are experienced almost daily.It is also important to understand that human emotions and communication are much more complex than the examples that Gray provides. This complexity is due to unique personalities and differing interactive situations. No two responses even with the same individual will ever be the same. However, understanding the different ways men and women may communicate and react to certain emotions will provide a better understanding of the reverse sex. This understanding will help bridge the communication gap between men and women and improve our knowledge of the complexities of human emotion.

Effectiveness Male Mental Health Care Health And Social Care Essay

This go off attempts to carry on a qualitative analysis of the efficiency of psychogenic health trouble places in the UK. The evaluate will be based on swindle structured interviews of round occupants in angiotensin converting enzyme such(prenominal)(prenominal)(prenominal) establishment in Manchester Suburbs, aged between 10 and 18. A elaborate literature reappraisal will similarly be carried erupt on the subject.The view aims at pin indicating major jobs which dark-green occupants of intellectual health places are confronting. It too aims at highlight the hinderances go about by immature males while life sentence in a residential place with mention to what they have already gone through. It is hoped that this discern will come in utile for such installations to better their operate in the hereafter.It is the responsibility of moral health anxiety places to step and measure their patient function from clip to clip and to inform the governments ab off th em so that some action might be taken for betterment. affable wellness attention residences in UK have a batch of restrictions. These include want of good trained staff, a full general deficiency of empathy among the staff, deficiency of good resources to provide the particular demands of its occupants and deficiency of proper communicating with the occupants. These jobs are scour to a greater extent than enhanced when it comes to male patients. Males normally do nt reach social support systems such as residential psychical wellness attention plans unless and until they feel that now their pronounce of affairs is out of their control. This magnifies the jobs because males in such establishments are normally less than females, but are more(prenominal) chronic.Since this is a qualitative survey, it will use qualitative methods of informations gathering. Best method for such a survey is that of semi structured interviews, because such a order of business provides an chance to the interviewer to obtain maximal information of diverse nature out of the topic.In the Information bulletin ( 2007 ) of Centre for wellness service development, the write provincesSemi-structured interviews focal point on a list of cardinal subjects or inquiries that the interviewer wants the respondent to turn to .This is a really suited method of informations aggregation for this research since it attempts at researching the subject. The research thrasher is non looking for any circumstantial replies instead an effort is being made to happen out some(prenominal) at that place is to cognize about the effectivity of mental wellness attention residential institutes for males, and to hold an penetration of service user position. literary productions ReappraisalMental wellness jobs can impact the whole life of persons. Many surveies have been conducted in the yesteryear, look intoing different let outs related to mental wellness. Following is a reappraisal of some such surv eiesFranz and Barker ( 2009 ) conducted a survey to place different Barriers to Care for Primary Care Physicians Treating Patients with Alzheimer Disease. They reason out that the chief jobs were admission to and communicating with mental wellness specializers, hapless reimbursement policies, and unmatched geographic distribution of good trained staff in such installations.Harmonizing to the World Health OrganizationGender prejudice occurs in the incumbrance of psychological up roofys. Doctors are more likely to name depression in adult females compared with work forces, even when they have similar tonss on interchangeable steps of depression or present with indistinguishable symptoms. Gender differences anyways exist in forms of aid acquireking for psychological upset. Womans are more likely to seek aid from and unwrap mental wellness jobs to their uncomplicated wellness attention doctor while work forces are more likely to seek specializer mental wellness attention and are the chief users of inpatient attention .There is considerable sum of prejudice against race with mental wellness jobs among the wellness service suppliers. As cited in the cognizance daily , Dr Alex Mitchell and his squad conducted a survey in 2009 to look into hinderances in entree to proper mental wellness attention services. They found outDespite similar or really more frequent checkup contacts, at that place are frequently disparities in the physical health reverence delivered to those with psychiatric unwellness with frankly poorer attention offered to ( or judge by ) those with preexistent mental wellness jobs. Patients are besides a blur colored about mental wellness issues. They normally avoid perceive a mental wellness professional. Many of them address their mental wellness jobs to their doctors instead than some mental wellness specializer. Vivian Kovess and co-workers conducted a survey in 2007 to look into the motivation factors in seeking professional aid fo r mental wellness issues. They found out thatMore than half of the sample would see their general practician fore nigh and frequently would go on with the general practician for followup. Mental wellness professionals were mentioned far less than general Practitioners .They besides found out that factors like age, instruction and societal support besides affect the seeking of professional mental wellness services.they concluded command Practitioners are frequently the point of entry into the mental wellness attention system and demand to be supported. Public information runs about mental wellness attention options and interventions are needed to educate the populace, extinguish the mug of mental unwellness and extinguish biass .Due to gender functions assigned by society, among patients with mental wellness jobs, adult females are more likely to disembowel as compared to work forces. In 2009 a research was conducted by Bader and Sinha. Their survey was manifold and was conducte d on an Iraqi sample. One of their many findings wereInterviewees describing supplanting as a cause for necessitating mental wellness services were twice both consequence likely to be female .HARP conducted a DH funded survey in 2003. Its intent was to place Bridges and Barriers into mental wellness of guard searchers. They concludedThe bulk of the male participants in the comm social unity audiences felt that work forces in their state of beginning faced specific force per unit areas that did non ease the self-acknowledgement of emotional or mental wellness jobs and that early socialisation in most civilizations did non promote work forces to speak about their jobs .A survey ( as cited in Dr Anderson Stanciole s article ) on prime(a) of and entree to wellness attention services was conducted by HEALTH sideline under the European Commission. This was aimed at analysing the barriers of entree to mainstream wellness attention services for people at hazard of societal exclusio n. Eight states were studied in deepness. They found out that there was a really complex state of affairs in supply wellness attention installations to migrators. One issue was of multicultural scene. The migrators had communicating issues. They could nt understand instructions or state their jobs decently. plunk for job was that the professionals had no information of their medical history and besides no manner to achieve it. So, along with prejudice, cultural issues like linguistic colloquy and brought up manner besides pose a barrier in supplying wellness attention services.Sometimes the mental wellness supplying installations have so complicated processs of admittance, that the aid searcher is discouraged automatically. A cardinal challenge some groups of refuge searchers face is right set abouting the procedure of using for protection . ( Guylim Croucher 2007 )A survey by Gordon Paul, conducted in 1988, cited in Neal & A Davison ( ninth edition ) suggests that even in the scoop up residential mental wellness attention places, the Patients do non hold optimum contact with healers or psychologist. The clinical staff spends what is even less than one 4th of their entire on the job hours with the patients.DiscussionService provided to immature males in mental wellness attention establishments in UK is non every bit good as it is expected to be. We have seen many instances where the proviso of wellness attention to refuge searchers has fallen significantly short of what would be accepted as a minimal criterion of attention under transnational human rights criterion ( Joint Committee on human rights grounds. P.173 )Mental wellness is a really huge term and residential mental wellness attention professionals need to concentrate on all the facets of mental wellness.For case, some of the males who were interviewed during the survey pointed out that they had trouble in making the mental wellness attention professionals. Residents in such institutes require proper steering and reding. They will non profit from the installation if a professional is non available for them most of the clip.Some patients who are non native have besides pointed out linguistic communication issues. The residence should engage proper professionals and perchance an translator for such patients.Bias among the staff was besides reported in some of the semi structured interviews. If the professional mental wellness staff will be biased against people holding mental wellness issues, so there is small opportunity for a life clip improvement of patients. much(prenominal) immature males are already subjected to a batch of prejudice and uncomplimentary judgment that can hold a permanent consequence on their lives. They deserve a bias free environment at least inside the installation.One good thing about the mental wellness attention institute is that the professionals over there arrange meetings with the patient s relations and attention takers from clip to clip to educate them about mental wellness issues that their beloved 1s are confronting.DecisionIn visible beam of literature reappraisal and above treatment, it can be concluded that patronage supplying mental wellness attention and installations to immature males, mental wellness attention residential places need to be improved. Hiring of professional, un-biased staff is required.Handiness of and entree to good trained psychologists and clinical psychologists is a must. Young males are more unfastened to therapy as compared to medicine, so counseling Sessionss should be encouraged.Some residential mental wellness attention centres do non carry through the demands of the patients. They should step-up their support to run into the basic demands of the occupants.On the whole it can be said that these institutes have both, virtues and demerits. Some issues like colored attitude, handiness of professionals, passable psychotherapeutics Sessionss and physical demands in such installations ne ed to be addressed.MentionsAnderson E.

Comprehensive and Continuous Evaluation Pattern Essay

It is ironic that Kapil Sibal declared at 125th Birth Anniversary celebrations of great Mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan that exam-centric education constitution would provoke to go. One wonders what Ramanujan himself would say Mr. Minister, even I am a growth of exam centric education system? Kapil Sibal says he would like to regenerate the current system with a child-centric one and only(a). Now that is a precise arouse term. So how does the minister define the term?Expressing his determination to do off with rote learning and the archaic examination-oriented system, he said We are endeavouring to domesticize this with emphasis on skill tuition and unlocking the creative talent inwardly the child. The Ministrys decision to do away with examinations at the end of the year, surrogate them with a Comprehensive and Continuous military rank (CCE) system in a bid to de-stress children, was a step in that direction. Link Comprehensive and Continuous Evaluation has its bene fits.It has to be, however, said that CCE will not de-stress the children all by itself. Students are below stress due to the range of competition. theorize a substructuredidate look for IIT JEE during +2. He faces at least 7 lakh others across the country. Imagine what goes on in the family, forget the candidate Every IIT calibrate has a story to tell as to how m any(prenominal) sacrifices the complete family conveys for success at the exam CCE has its benefits and can de-stress the students but in an autonomous organization with nasty controls within the organization.For example, some engine room colleges at graduate take and almost all of them at post-graudate level use it to the maximum benefit of two students and professors. The system is a success at these places because of the autonomy. JNTU implemented CCE in engineering colleges affiliated to it. It had limited impact and yet, it couldnt do away with the net exam. The concluding exam had to cover 80% of the to tal score. CCE makes sense when the come up of institutions involved is less. Another important itemor that influences the impact of CCE is the physical law of proximity of affiliated institutions.Otherwise fraud and cheating would happen as the reference is with JNTUs example. Understanding the issue JNTU faced some(prenominal) issues with implementing CCE is more than atomic number 6 colleges in AP affiliated to it at the time of introduction of the system. They started with 80% external evaluation in the form of final comprehensive exam and 20% internal evaluation across the semester via 5 exams conducted by the instructor. Due to need of feedback weapon between students and the governing body JNTU, the system led to several fusss. There were cases of cheating and fraud.JNTU wanted to solve this problem by devising internal evaluation not so internal through online verifiable evaluation. For this, an internal evaluation question bank was created through suggestions f rom all its professors, auxiliary professors, associate professors across the affiliated institutes. The online evaluation software would throw haphazard questions on the screen to be answered in stipulated amount of time. This system once again failed at several institutions due to infrastructure issues but the major problem was again cheating and fraud.The issue is quite clear large educational bodies with centralized governing body cannot use CCE effectively. Effective use of CCE can happen with decentralized model. JNTU understood this and divided colleges between JNTU Hyderabad, JNTU Kakinada and JNTU Ananthapur. The division was rigorously based on physical proximity of the institute to the governing body. This system still faces the issues that it had initially. It will continue to face them. Take another example. IITs. For evaluating graduate students, IITs dont have a communal examination across all the IITs even up BITS Pilani which has its campuses in Pilani, Dubai, Goa and Hyderabad doesnt use CCE across all four via a common evaluation body. Closed loop within each campus is used. In fact in all these institutes, swift justice in case of any fraud/cheating via committees within the institutes ensures better evaluation, without hindering the process of education. The happen upon phrase checks and balances. One then wonders why such a mischievous loop cannot be framed within the inculcates or a establish of schools within close physical proximity What is happening now?In our current system of school education, we have CBSE at national level and as competing bodies we have State Education Boards. Schools are surrendered to choose one of the bodies. The chosen body not just dictates syllabi but also evaluates students in a final examination with a common exam held on a common date at all affiliated schools. So by design CCE is missing. Private schools, so far bridged this gap by having internal evaluation which does not affect scoring at fi nal exam but will only help students to be score for the final evaluation.Government schools on the other hand, have been busy dower meals at noon to children rather than conducting classes regularly. All organization education bodies across India have a common goal syllabus. Core of the problem lies in this skill growth has never been the area of interest of these bodies. Skill development was and still is the schools responsibility to compete with other schools. Students who make it top notch institutes across India via JEE, AIEEE, BITSAT etc. , generally have a set of skills in some area or the other. unless it has to be understood that they do not make it there due to those skills. They pay off those skills at school, due to their own enthusiasm and sometimes due to the schools stress on extra-curricular and co-curricular activities. Fortunately or unfortunately, skill development is not due to the governing body. Some exceptions do exist in places like Kerala though In t erms of the system of education, both geographics and demography have a huge role to play. Before CCE carrying out. Sibals megalomania and grandiose plans lack substance just because of one of his very fundamental assertion centralization.For a country of the size of India, with such a large population, centralization of education is a disaster to start with. decentralize and allowing that little freedom to schools would be a very important step. such a decentralization process must be addressed originally CCE can be implemented. If we are supposed to get anything useful from instruction execution of CCE, what Governments at class X, +1, +2 level in Government Schools ineluctably to Allow more freedom to schools to collaborate and spool resources they are already in severe resource crunch. Leaving out examinations completely would be a recipe for disaster.As it is, drop out rates in Class X, +1, +2 across states like AP is too high. Any headfirst introduction of CCE without first correcting some fundamental flaws in organizing schools would only put up about faster drop out rates at these levels. CCE is already available in an abstract way in private schools. some(prenominal) aided and government schools tried to emulate it to see marginal success. But the issue remains. CCE it self will not reduce stress on students. In conclusion, CCE would make sense only with a proper mechanism to address drop-out rates at class X, +1, +2 levels across government schools in India.Acts proposed by Sibal like RTE only make it worse as they attack Private schools which have a decent CCE model already in place. Bottom line leave private institutions alone. If possible allow them a % share of total evaluation points/score. Dont wish-wash examinations, even if you introduce grading. Meanwhile, ensure Government and Aided school reform standards w. r. t infrastructure and faculty. Form conglomerates of schools within a certain spoke and allow them to frame, organize and evaluate their students through proper resource spooling.

Megger’s Article Response Essay

Betty J. Meggers article, Environmental Limitation on the Development of Culture, examines how environmental habitats at present affect and influence gardening. Meggers discusses the differing environmental types and its resulting effect on the people and their heathen development. Her theoretical framework is grounded on the idea that the relationship between culture and its environment is not precisely based in terms of subsistence (802), exactly largely to a cultures experience with diffusion (822). scattering can best be defined as a edge in which a cultural trait, idea, or behavior is spread from unitary society to another.While she does believe that the relative strength or weakness of an environment to provide a suitable means for food employment affects the adaptation and advancement of a culture, she excessively believes that cultural diffusion plays a vital role as well. According to Meggers, the general belief is that environmental potentiality is the sole condi tioner of cultural development (801). The span of environmental habitats into separate into 4 environmental types, ranging from lawsuit 1 environments, which have the least sylvan potential, to Type 4 environments, which have un contain agricultural potential.Meggers does generally attend to agree that the environmental type can set limitations on the take aim of development a culture is able to obtain (816). Because Type 1 environments have the least agricultural potential, tribes must subsist mainly by hunting, fishing, and gathering. Cultures that live in Type 1 environments are relatively nonaged in population size and tend to lead more of a nomadic lifestyle, a inevitable part of life because they must continually follow their food source.As a result, their existence is noticeably simple because their primary focus is on satisfying only their very underlying needs such as shelter and food. This type of environment results in a culture where social organization and tech nology is very limited in scope. The nomadic lifestyle necessitates that tribes remain relatively small, therefore making the single family the basic social unit. Additionally, technology remains limited to only the most essential tools and utensils due to the limited resources available.According to Meggers, Type 1 and Type 2 environments seem to prohibit cultural advancement because of the limitations compel on a culture by the environment and the general need of a suitable source of diffusion. Conversely, Type 4 environments have untrammelled agricultural potential because they possess all the ideal conditions necessary for sustaining agriculture. Meggers calls Type 4 environments the cradles of civilization (804) because of their ability to develop and implement the technology necessary to sustain an agriculturally based lifestyle.Type 4 environments are typified by their complex social organization and cultural advancements. Meggers states that Type 4 civilizations are boo m due to their intensive production of food and the necessary means of distribution. However, Meggers also believes that success of Type 3 and Type 4 environments to advance culturally is also heavily influenced by diffusion across cultures, or a cultures relative exposure and adoption of differing cultural norms, beliefs, and behaviors.

General Paper

MARRIAGE. wedlock is the union of two antithetical surnames, in fri force outship and in love, in order to continue the posterity of the former sages, and to furnish those who shall preside at the sacrifices to heaven and earth, at those in the ancestral temple, and at those at the altars to the spirits of the land and grain. Confucius, As this cultivation becomes a great deal individual(a)(a) focuse, bonds with others for survival becomes slight important. We now pay the great unwashed to do the things we used to accomplish in a partnership. Restaurants and fast nutri ment chains, genius time relegated to passing(a) family outings, ar a main cum of nourishment.There atomic number 18 agencies that let deliver home-cooked meals to you or ingest them ready for pick-up. Cleaning staff, once particular to the rich or to businesses, argon organismness used by the middle-class. both parents are working, focusing on their careers, their paths toward self individuati on, and more(prenominal) s moo tasks care yard work are being hired out. The power plosive, partnerships are less infallible than they were 60 years ago. That is the social resolve that the establishment of mating whitethorn be superannuated. save the social influence does not stand al adept. These changes contact individuals and individuals hit up a matrimony.So what are some(a) of the individual sheathistics that may contri bute to married couple being an over-the-hill theory? number 1, as discussed above, it is the desire for individuation by those in a trades union. more(prenominal) and more oftmultiplication the great unwashed take to necessitate meaning in their life, beyond raising a family. We are culture whose individuals regard to be different. Ameri cigarets want to stand out. They want to feel they accomplished something for themselves. As such, scarce if load-bearing(a) a partner to achieve feels inadequate to legion(predicate). They in l ike manner want to achieve, and to be supported in their stopping pointeavors.This al cardinal can contribute to conflict in a nuptials. Whose needs come starting time? How long do I put my boundaryinals on the back burner to help you attain yours? When can I pursue my happiness? Is marriage as an installation outdated? Discuss According to the most recent statistics, the disjoin rate, often quoted (even by this informant in classes) as 50% of marriages, is actually closer to the low 40 percentile. (Divorce Rate Its Not as High as You Think, By Dan Hurley, The New York Times, and April 19, 2005). notwithstanding that does not negate the detail that the United States has the highest divorce rate in the world per capital.The fact that so many American marriages end in divorce leans to the question is marriage an outdated institution? I think the answer is dependent on some of your psychealized variables. First, allow us go through at the facts over 40% of marriages en d in divorce. This does not simply infer that the intact marriages are happy. This write attended a lecture by a respected psychiatrist, rabbi, and author who suggested that another(prenominal) half of the in-tact marriages were unhappy. Per capita, the United States has the highest divorce rate in the world. The middling duration of a marriage in the U.S is about 7 to 8 years. And although marriage is an institution which makes childrearing most efficacious, marriages in which at that place are children end in divorce with a higher frequency than those marriages without children. Yet marriage remains an institution that many would not think of doing away with or even restructuring. Likely even the question of marriage being an outdated institution raises eyebrows. A controversial issue in this country onwards long is whether gays should have the right to marry, again showing the attachment to this social institution.Many five-year-old throng wouldnt dream of not run lowting married. In fact, many women have been dreaming about their impending nuptials since they were young children. This is not only true for women, as many men assume marriage and children are a foregone conclusion in their lives. So what is this authors argument that the estimation of marriage might be outdated? Well, beyond the statistics above, I also call back that as the Dali Lama said, Our purpose in life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we simply desire contentment. This is becoming more and more true today, as more mess seek happiness. trades union is a source of lasting happiness for some, but for others it is only a temporary high. The first argument that marriage might be outdated is the divorce rate. Marriage has been around as an institution since, well, according to anything found in this authors research, past time. It was reported as necessary for childrearing, property disbursement, and bloodline. In these multiplication it was more necessary to ha ve a partnership to survive. Even more than partnerships, tribes were necessary for survival. As times changed, neighborhoods became like tribes and small communities worked together to enhance the lives of all.But occidental civilization has continued to move toward a more individualistic culture. at present people are less apparent to even socialize with their neighbors, let alone rely on them. It is true some areas are hold by their neighborhood, and the community works together to enhance the life of its members. But this is becoming less and less true. As an example, how many daycare centers for children were in that location 50 years ago? As this culture becomes more individual focused, bonds with others for survival becomes less important. We now pay people to do the things we used to accomplish in a partnership.Restaurants and fast food chains, once relegated to occasional family outings, are a main source of nourishment. There are agencies that will deliver home-cooke d meals to you or have them ready for pick-up. Cleaning staff, once limited to the rich or to businesses, are being used by the middle-class. Both parents are working, focusing on their careers, their paths toward self individuation, and more tedious tasks like yard work are being hired out. The point, partnerships are less necessary than they were 60 years ago. That is the social reason that the institution of marriage may be outdated.But the social influence does not stand alone. These changes impact individuals and individuals make up a marriage. So what are some of the individual characteristics that may contribute to marriage being an outdated thought? First, as discussed above, it is the desire for individuation by those in a marriage. More and more often people want to have meaning in their life, beyond raising a family. We are culture whose individuals want to be different. Americans want to stand out. They want to feel they accomplished something for themselves. As such, s imply supporting a partner to achieve feels inadequate to many.They also want to achieve, and to be supported in their endeavors. This alone can contribute to strife in a marriage. Whose needs come first? How long do I put my goals on the back burner to help you attain yours? When can I pursue my happiness? Another aspect of this is the drive toward excitement and experience. For some people, experience is more important than possessions. Some people but make happy experience, for its own sake. They may be thrill seekers, or may just place a high value on novel experiences. These people just enjoy doing new things and meeting new people.At one point in time these characters might have been explorers, adventurers, or other types of stake takers. It seems though, that this is becoming much more popular as a character trait these days. And folks with this character trait are likely to bewilder the routine of marriage stifling. There are other reasons that marriages may snitch tha t are related to society. For one, despite many marriages failing or being unhappy, we live in a culture that quixoticizes marriage. People are forever told they will find their soul mate, that if this relationship doesnt work out another will come along who might be the one. In reality, how often are you able to accurately predict who your one is? Most people acquiring married believe they found the one. And when that doesnt work and they remarry, they often believe this time they found the one. And this isnt limited only to those who marry. How many people did you get romantically involved with who at some point you thought were in all probability the one? Perhaps this concept, which shows no signs of dying despite the evidence against it, is at worst mere wishful thinking, or at best, a long-shot. on with this idea of marriage being romanticized is the desire to simply have a wedding.First, a wedding is a beautiful thing. The pageantry, the pomp, and the sweetheart of it all results in it being majestic. Everyone should have one. It just doesnt seem they should have to stay together forever as a result. In a recent parole with a colleague who was discussing marriage, she reported she valued to get married. It wasnt that she necessarily wanted to marry the guy she was with, but that she wanted to get married to someone. She discussed the beauty of a wedding, and how it would be a shame to miss out on that. Everyone wants to be Cinderella or Prince Charming for a night.This is not uncommon thinking. But does the expectation have to be that they will stay together for a lifetime? (There was an word two years ago about a politician in a European country advocating a equity that marriages expire after seven years, with the opportunity to renew. Of course she was mocked and ridiculed). Another point of discussion for why marriages may fail focuses on the fact that many people get married before having been on their own. Recently one of my students, when discussing her relationship, actually said she didnt want to be alone for the rest of her life.She couldnt have been more than 27, although early 20s is more likely. For some reason this is a predominant fear in our culture (this could evolve into an experiential discussion, but that is better placed in another article). There seems to be a myth that if you dont find someone, and latch onto them, you will be nonsocial and miserable, possibly for the rest of your life. Many people seem to settle so they dont have to face this fear. Ultimately, this fear becomes less predominant, and the person may leave the marriage. But the real culprit was the fear leading to settling.Too often, marriage is an tone-beginning to posses another. When humans love someone, they are afraid to let them go. People are afraid of sacking. And what better way to secure someone than marriage? Marriage provides a false experience of security. It definitely makes ending the relationship more difficult. But beyond just the fear of being alone is the fact that if you havent been on your own you are used to a cycle of dependency. First people are dependent on their caregivers. And if they go from this state to one of marriage, they have never really been independent. There has always been someone else back up out.Outside of simply being dependent, thither is a level of maturation that comes from animate on your own and not being in a romantic relationship. One learns to nurture oneself, to care for oneself, to be independent in the truest sense of the word. Unfortunately, many who enter marriage have never really undergo this. This discussion of personal growth leads me to another point regarding how the changing times have altered individuals character. These days more people are interested in their own personal growth. As people grow and change the risk of growing apart increases.When most people in their mid-forties think of what they were like in their twenties, they can usually see the fearsome changes that have occurred. This is even truer when personal growth is a goal. And with one or even both partners growing and changing, the potential for growth in debate directions is a possibility. And even if you dont grow apart, there is the possibility of a loss of attraction for your partner, and growing attraction for others you meet on your path. Attraction is one of my favorite areas of psychology. The reason one individual is attracted to another is rich with possibility.For some, there is a reminiscence of something deeply enjoyed in the past. A client late discussed how the attraction to each of her recent relationships related to two important men in her life. This is excellent evidence of this phenomenon. For some people they believe this person they are with is the best they will ever be able to get. sometimes this comes from feelings of low self esteem, but this is not always the case. Often there is a bargaining process which goes on inside of us when considering a romantic partner. We have this much beauty, smarts, financial potential, humor, etc, and we want equal value.Too much value and we might be insecure. Too little, and well we are getting the hornswoggle end of the stick. But beyond all of this is the most common reason one individual is attracted to another early childhood memory. This article is not the appropriate place for this discussion, so I refer the proofreader to A General Theory of Love by Lewis, Amini, and Lannon. In short the above book systematically provides a theory that purports that all experiences, but most importantly early childhood experiences, affect the choices we make in close relations.If we had dysfunction in our home, we continue this pattern in other relations. This leads to another reason marriages may not remain intact as they used to, and hence may be an outdated concept. Bluntly, pathology is less accredited now. In the past, abuse, issues of control, alcoholism, addiction, and m ental illness were hidden in a closet. These days people are more psychologically informed. They are more aware that being mistreated is not acceptable, that it is not a reflection on them. They are less likely to tolerate behavior which contributes to their unhappiness.And furthermore, they are more likely than their predecessors to read self-help books, engage in therapy and resolve the issues that result in staying somewhere they are unhappy. They are even more likely to resolve the issues that lead to the attraction to begin with, which would result in the attraction dissipating. So is marriage an outdated concept? It is possible after reading this article you may think this author believes so. And for many people, I do believe marriage is an outdated concept.And I am not alone, although likely in the nonage (judging from the comments posted on the article On Marriage Lets Call the solid Thing Off posted on MSN June 228, 2009). But I do marriage counseling, and believe marriage is right for many other people. The goal is to find if you are right for marriage. And ultimately whether marriage is an outdated concept or not is a personal decision. Some of the things you might look at before making the decision are your motives for marriage. Are you purchase into a preconceived notion of what is supposed to be, without evaluating your values?Have you been intend your wedding since you were young and do you just refuse to give up on the dream, regardless of how your personality might affect long term commitment? Are you devoutly religious, and believe that pleasing God comes before personal happiness? If you believe marriage is for you, and you have evaluated your motives, then furthermost be it for any article to sway you. Just realize marriage is work, and it will be important to forgo your happiness at times to maintain the marriage. And keep your hope. Even if marriage is an outdated concept, everyone has the right to make the choices they make. Good luc k on your path.
