QUESTION:
How many people actually live up to the following standards of being a parent?
Every Child Needs: Home
1) Unconditional Love: physical and emotional warmth and closeness, through both good times and bad. In conjunction with an enduring sense of trust from both sides, unconditional love forms the foundation for a lifelong, mutually respectful, nurturing relationship between parent and child.
2) Validation: affirmation for a child's thoughts, feelings, ideas, efforts, and especially for his or her individuality as a human being. Validation begins with a parent's highly attuned attention. Through generous praise, recognition, appreciation, hugs, pats on the back, and so forth, a child comes to feel as though his or her feelings truly matter within the family unit. Feeling solidly supported by our families during childhood is the primary mechanism for the formation of healthy self-esteem in human beings.
3) Structure:an environment of "healthy limits" in which a child can grow and thrive. Good structure for children is a matter of balance. In order for them to feel emotionally secure and yet still have the freedom to grow, children need to experience age-appropriate, continually expanding boundaries as they mature. Nonoppressive, sometimes negotiable (where appropriate) limits are enforced with compassionate discipline, the ultimate goal being to teach children the arts of self-discipline and self-motivation.
4) Understanding: a child gains emotional security from knowing that he or she can make mistakes (even the mistake of behaving badly) without being shamed or degraded with excessive parental anger or harsh punishment. In this type of nurturing family system, parents understand that mistakes are an integral part of the learning process, and that children learn life's lessons more fully when they are guided with an "empathetic hand."
5) Healthy Modeling: consistent parental examples of emotional wholeness. We parents must show our children the way toward balance in life by modeling such things as emotional generosity toward others, calm and effective problem-solving skills (particularly in our dealings with them), healthy coping strategies in regard to our own daily stresses, and the ability to set goals and sustain our efforts in achieving them. For better or worse, our parental behavior is the most powerful life teacher for our children.
6) Challenge: age-appropriate incentives for a child to learn life's emotional and practical lessons at each developmental stage. In order to bolster our children's ability to problem-solve and achieve their goals, their minds need to be stimulated by learning new skills and overcoming obstacles. As we parents offer our children a wide variety of subject matter to explore, our use of encouragement and praise is key in sustaining their desire to master their world.
7) Inclusion: a sense of belonging to the family group, and to the community at large. A healthy attachment to the primary caregiver in childhood is the first way that children learn to feel like welcome and valuable members of the family group. This core sense of belonging is what enables children to move confidently into the world, and reach out to others in a spirit of good will and camaraderie. It is important for them to experience the satisfaction of having other people depend on them, as well, which is taught in the home by having each child be responsible for important family duties. In this way, our children will learn to be responsible to themselves, to their families, and to society.
When a child's developmental needs are met, he or she will naturally begin to experience:
Healthy Self-Esteem: core feelings of self-acceptance, self-confidence, and self-respect as an individual. A child develops healthy self-esteem when his or her feelings, ideas, and achievements are accepted, valued, and supported within the family unit over the long term. Unlike arrogance - which is often a coping mechanism for covering up underlying feelings of worthlessness - healthy self-esteem is the keystone to understanding, respecting, and valuing others.
Self-Actualization: a child's growing recognition of his or her unique thoughts and abilities throughout the maturation process. The prime goal of parenting is to prepare our children for independence in adulthood. We parents must therefore consistently encourage our children's journey toward autonomy, so they can learn to thrive "without us," emotionally, materially, and spiritually.
"Children thrive in an environment of being valued and loved."

QUESTION:
I need help on my take home oceanography test?
hello, i need help on my take home oceanography test because i just dont understand anything, all of the following questions are truth or false, so plz help me out here guys, i rly need to pass this test to pass the class.
if your not sure of an answer then just put not sure next to it but still answer it to the best of your knowledge
since their initial formation, the ocean basins have stayed relatively unchanged.
hydrogen bonds are weak associations between polar molecules such as water
density increases with increasing temperatures.
abyssal plains are found on the deep ocean floor at depths of up to 5000 meter.
most major animal phyla evolved some 500 million years ago
the southern hemisphere is composed of over 2/3 landmasses
carbon dioxide is limited in the ocean
two important limited nutrients in the ocean are nitrogen and phosphorus
the oxygen minimum zone often corresponds with the thermocline
the himalaya mountains are a result of seafloor spreading
an atmospheric ozone layer made of oxygen protects the earth from ultraviolet radiation
pressure in the ocean increases about 1 atmosphere for every 10 m increase in depth
in general the photic zone extends to about 100m
gyres represent the largest circulation patterns in the ocean
surface waves can potentially carry water thousands of miles across the ocean
the mantle is situated between the earths crust and the outer core
an important evolutionary stage was the ultimate accumulation of oxygen from the photosynthesizerss about 2.5 billion years ago
excess precipitation occurs at tropical latitudes as well as at polar latitudes

ANSWER:
Like the instructions say, put not sure next to your answer. Do that here, edit your question, or supply additional information, and we'll help you out. But we cannot take your test for you.
Likely, your teacher is trying to find out what you've learned, not how well you can cheat. Your teacher is probably trying to see what they need to go over to help you, and mucking around here is going to cloud the issue.

QUESTION:
What do you think about this suggestion concerning the Mindanao problem?
Granting full independent from the Philippine government not just mere running their own affairs but have their own set of constitution and head of state but will not secede from the Philippines. Having their own prime ministers. Just like the UK concerning Ireland and Scotland. This is also similar to the formation of the Soviet Union then. For decades Mindanao is neglected and uncared for by the Philippines government, with the recent Maguindanao massacre which obviously stem from partisan politics of the Arroyo government creating monsters out of these Ampatuans. Massing huge file of armory and guns which even the AFP in that part of Mindanao do not have like rocket launchers, M82 rifles and many many cases of bullets of M40 etc. How can one family or clan in Mindanao have this kind of armory inside their own home? They can even stage a revolution in Mindanao and take over the whole country. It is pretty obvious that the Ampatuans have clearly connive with the AFP section in some parts to have this kind of armory in their hands. Blame the Generals in this part of Mindanao I guess. Corrupt government officials and AFP personnels. Some of you might say, Mindanao is just Mindanao. No. Mindanao is obviously part of the Philippines. So if Mindanao hurts the whole country felt the pain. Didn't you guys learn this from your own home not in school I guess. Unless we address this problem more thoroughly Mindanao is going to be a part of the problem not the solution to the welfare of the Philippines. I guess some of you might agree that they should run their own affairs away from the geniuses of Malacanang and some Generals of the AFP. What do you think? Thank you.

ANSWER:
The majority of the citizens living on Mindanao do not want independence. You are suggesting the solution is giving the island over to a minority group of radicals and disregard what the majority want. What makes you think the radical group would be happy once they got Mindanao? Why do you think they would not then start havoc with the next island. What makes you think that once Congress established a precedent for turning islands over to groups that some other group would not want independence for their indigenous group? That is exactly what happen to the Soviet Union and why it was divided and weakened. It is true Mindanao has not received the attention from Manila that it should have, but allowing it to govern itself is not the solution. You would have groups like the the Ampatuans running Mindanao.
