Hostel going students are those with much more excitement and they are energetic because of the new lifestyle they are going to step into. It is always a responsible thing which should parents consider in case of hostel going students to make sure that their children are all set and fit to go outside and live their life, on their own terms, by adopting few skills and by adding extra flavour to their lives.

Community College Students face a Very Long Road to Graduation.Mr..docxfathwaitewalter
Community College Students face a Very Long Road to Graduation.
Mr. Vladimir’s goal is attaining a bachelors and masters degree from Hunter College to accredit him ignite his passion for teaching studio art and art history. He has made up his mind to pursue a major in fine art at bachelors and masters level. He once told Ginia Bellafante that “All I care about is art and global history” while they were on Roosevelt island in the apartment that he share with his father and stepmother and this proof that he is still not near his goal yet.
After the death of Mr. de Jesus’ mother and sister they moved to their native home, Puerto Rico for several years. This subjected them to hardship, living in cars and shelters before they resolved to travel back to New York. He was admitted to Washington Irving High School where due to dismal performance he opted to drop out earning himself an equivalence diploma. Mr. de Jesus was in a disturbed mental state, he was not able to give his studies as much attention as they demanded and this hindrance was greatly influenced by his past that had affected him psychologically. A majority of community college students have work and child rearing as the barriers to consistent class attendance causing an imbalance. Mr.de Jesus has a six year old daughter called Svetlana who he takes to school in the morning using the F and D trains and then he takes the B42 bus to commute to LaGuardia community college for his class. Mr.de Jesus, along with other community college students, faces the longest commuting distance, and this affects his timely presence in class.
The government should not neglect but come up with initiatives to set up agencies mandated with addressing the welfare of low-income families and vulnerable groups in the United States of America. This organization should offer psychological counseling to affected people as this would actually assist them in forgetting past Tragedies. Provision of proper and modern housing facilities as well as financial aid to empower them as a form of an equalization fund is of paramount importance. Subsidizing fees further in community colleges and increasing scholarships to prestigious private colleges to act as motivation for better performance by children from low-income families. Another focus should Educating community college students on the importance of having children after school or even waiting until marriage by informing them on the use of different birth control methods to avoid early child rearing which will interferes with their studies. This will also protect them from the larger Aids epidemic.
I will say that Mr. Vladimir de Jesus will succeed and I see him of teaching studio art and art history in the near future. He is a bright student with a high GPA the only things that are limiting his completion are his responsibilities as a father and his economic background. He had dropped out of school and came back after four years and this show a lot of determination on.

1. If I were to have to require a license to parent, I would require psychological and drug/alcohol testing. I think this is so important because children are so helpless, they only know what their environment allows them. Obviously substance abuse is bad and not healthy for children to be around or those children will end up being in custody of the state. Psychological testing to ensure that the child will be in safe hands from the moment they are born. I am so tired and saddened by the constant reports of child abuse, molestation, death..... and so many of these are by the parents own hands!
I think some of the other things that may seem logical to have straightened out before parenting are actually what makes us who we are.
2. I grew up with both parents, having been together since they were 15 and their first child at 15/16. They had 5 children (all girls!) and just celebrated their 36th anniversary a few weeks ago! I have shared my family story with many people as we are moving and making new friends. I find that people are surprised at the successful outcome that my parents had being put in that position at such a young age but recently I was asked a similar question by a friend and I keep circling back to the word respect. My parents drilled that into us; whether it was self-respect/image, respect for our elders, coaches, or our home. I really believe that one word/virtue has taught me so much throughout my life and is always useful.
3. Learning the value of respect and its impact, I have tried to do as my parents did and teach my children the same way. I have witnessed this paying off by the way my kids interact with others and feel good knowing that I can trust them to make good decisions even if I am not there. All of that comes back to them understanding respect. They need to respect my decisions as a parent, respect other people and their property, display respectful behavior, respect the community and environment.

If you had to obtain a license to parent, what would you require, and why?
I believe parents obtaining a license before becoming a parent is a good idea. Ethical parenting above all is responsible caregiving, requiring of parents enduring investment and commitment throughout their children’s long period of depending (Bornstein, 2002). I believe this to be logical, because how you raise your kids will determine (most of the time) how they will live their adult lives. Rather they were raised right and live a good adult life or raised wrong and live a bad adult life. Sometimes growing up bad influences you to do the right thing when you become an adult. Most parents now in days have no clue on what to do to become a parent. Majority of them go off of social media and how they were raised.
Discuss an incident from your childhood which typifies the parenting style of your parent(s).

Some identity crisis stuff in HS ‘Dropped out.’
Went to Peru. 1 yr. Frosh at Fort Lewis in Durango.
Worked where and when I could. Lost drive for school in HS.
‘Learn by living.’ ‘Parents always concerned.’ Diff’t value
system. Stuff not important. Dad not okay with path.
Mom, divorced from Dad, gets it. Brother same. ‘Not digging
CU. ‘ 6 months in Peru w/ me. ‘No girl friend now.’ Building
fences for $. Dad found job for me.Why college? ‘Not all it’s
cracked up to be. No degree for me’.
Feel
Belives his values will win the day.
Not concerned about employability. Cares about what his father thinks and tries to
do enough to eliminate his stress. Meets Dad half way but lives by his values first.
Feels a twinge of guilt around parental support and living off their dime: car, travel
Won’t return to school. Really feels it’s a waste of time and that he can live simply.
Learns best by doing but wants to set his own agenda. His friends appreciate him and
he has influenced them, even those with valuable STEM degrees.
Brother took off time from CU and followed him to Peru. He’s charismatic and definitely
has a value system that does not have the American dream in mind. Wants to stay in
Colorado. Loves Boulder but cannot afford it on his own but doesn’t care to adapt values
that are necessary to stay. Not opposed to work. Will live healthy and fun life.
College is for chumps and sheep in his view. Thinks the payments should be reversed
for what they do and offer. Not sure he’d mind a simplier life but would mind if he couldn’t
ski, bike, and have phone/car. He’ll learn by doing and will survive on charm. He just might.
Feels confident. Wise. No regrets with his life choices.
Some guilt around parental expectations, mostly Dad’s. He’s relieved his Mom accepts
and understands. A lot of friends have taken the traditional route and he
applauds their success, but he feels no need to follow that route.
Feels supported, Feels that more are following a path like his.
Feels higher ed is a sham and sells false promises. Believes
in self, feels intelligent, feels he’ll succeed in his own way, a way
that he’ll define. Doesn’t think higher ed is sustainable as it is now. Feels nothing positive
about the traditional approach, at least not for him, but feels uninformed about what’s new
in education and the changes underfoot.
NEEDS INSIGHTSSUPPORT OF OTHERS
LIVING HIS OWN VALUES
HAVING FUN AND ADVENTURE
WANTS TO LIVE HEALTHY BUT NEEDS $ TO DO SO
CAN’T DO IT ALONE BUT FEELS HIS VALUES AND LIFESTYLE ARE IN
OPPOSITON TO THE FALSE CHOICE THAT THE TRADITIONAL PATH, COLLEGE
TO CAREER, OFFERS.
PROBLEM STATEMENT: The current school to work path leaves many in-
telligent, capable, and conscientious people out of the mainstream job mar-
ket where they are unlikely to have power to help contribute to many of the
issues that are important to them.
