Peyton Fahrquhar had a strong fellings of loyalty to the south. He also had dreams of the glories of war and defending what he believes in. I believe the theme is implied more than stated. The author states early on in the story that all is fair in love and war which proves to be through the end. However, the story shows Peyton getting what he asked for. He had been warned about the bridge, but still the patriot in him and also the need to be a civilian soldier led him to his death. In the end what he seemed to really want was his wife and children. The theme of the story in my oppinion is be careful what you wish for.

Adrian, who is a 14-year-old Caucasian and African American of Hispanic descent, was referred from the social worker at his middle school due to behavioral and emotional issues. He demonstrates “excessive absences/truancy, refusal to participate in classroom activities and complete work, disrespect of authority figures, physical assaults on teachers and peers, and verbal assault his family members as well”. Adrian has a complicated family history. Adrian’s biological parents, Virgina and Gerald lived together for no more than 2 years, and they did not marry. Also, both sides have family histories about mental illness and substance abuse. Adrian was put in foster care from 5-8 year-old because of parental neglect, and he backed to his biological mother after 8 years old. His biological mother has two older children, and they have their own issues. His biological mother does not have job because of health issues, and his biological father does not give them child support except giving money to them to buy necessities occasionally. Adrian’s mother has a couple of relationships, and has children with different fathers. Adrian does not have safe and comfortable environment to live, and he does not have good

She loses respect for so many. She even loses friends in the making of this senior project. She was always told, she would become a teen mom and she wanted to see what if I was? She keeps trying her hardest to not get hurt by the words that other tells her and she tries to pretend that it’s okay. Overall she is hurting and she isn’t even pregnant but she sticks with it. She fights all the fights she needs too (not physical.) She puts herself out there. She straps on a fake belly every day and pushes herself to go to school. She is judged not just by her “friend” but by her peers and even teachers. She even is looked down to and seen as not the smart kid in the back. She was known as the teen pregnant and no other name title. She had to get this project out of the way. She was even looked down upon those teachers that she looked up to and they just said how she had thrown her life away. She was talked about by even students that’s she never knew. Rumors were spread and then the feelings were felt. She knew she could take off the belly at any time but she didn’t and she fought through

In this one case alone we can track this incidence from the mother all the way to the role society played. First, the patient had three children from three different fathers, all of whom did not provide any support for her. The first father could have been written off as bad judgment, but to attempt to write off three would be an injustice to her. It is evident due to some emotional attachment to the idea of not wanting to be alone she was able to rationalize her decisions based on that concept. Because of self deception she refused to even entertain the thought of whether these man had any qualities that would make good fathers. Had she not refrained from making judgement on these man father the first father she would have been able to recognize the signs that this man might not make a good father in a nutshell she would have been able to learn from her prior mistakes. However, father she decides to better herself and her children we see society impede this improvement. After she is hospitalized, Social Services sent the two year old to live with his father whose daily routine consisted of a life of "drinking, whoring and fighting." Enlight of all the evidence pointing to a bad home situation Social Services stated "it was wrong to pass judgement on a man like this." The contradiction however is shown after the father and his girlfriend kill the two year old and as a result

If you were the case manager for this family, when would you begin to intervene?

“Guardianship may be necessary to protect a person with mental disorders who lacks the capacity to care for himself but it may potentially abuse the person's civil rights and autonomy and should therefore be implemented only as a last resource.” (Melamed, Y., Doron, I., & Shnitt, D. 2007)This was a baby, who had no voice, had no one to fight for him, the people who were supposed to stand up for him literally gave up on him the moment he was born. The hospital obviously saw that they were not acting in the best interest of the child. They could have sought out social workers or legal counsel in order to fight for the baby. As healthcare managers, you have to take risks and make these hard decisions and no one did this for Baby Boy Doe. I would have rathered fought for the child within the legal system, sought out other family members and social workers, rather than sit back and watch him through a long and painful

1) Would a school social worker in your city or town be legally justified in talking with a 14 year old about a pregnancy and possible abortion before securing the parents permission to do so.

In the case we are asked to look at with the two little girls, the office was alerted due to neglect and issues of locking the children away in order to not have contact with them and avoid physical discipline. Again having a large amount of experience with this personally I can speak on several different instances in which the agency needs to be involved. My middle son, again who is not my biological child, has 4, soon to be 6 other half siblings by his biological mother. None of which she has custody of. They have all been removed by CPS. In her case it was for the use of narcotics, in and around the children as well as during pregnancy with 4 of the 6 children she has. She is currently pregnant with number 5 and 6 of her living children though technically they are 9 and 10. She has previously had two singleton abortions and an abortion of a set of twin girls. She has had 4 other boys removed now, ages 5, 3, and a set of twin boys who are 18 months. CPS has already stated that the children she is pregnant with now will be removed as well upon their birth. So in a case such as hers, she was given a year to prove to the courts that she wanted to work towards keeping her twins, they set up visitation for her at the cps office, as well as classes for her to attend, weekly drug screens, parenting classes, and set financial goals she had to meet.
