mcom 357 press release
Little Tikes is recalling over 1.7 million toy workshop and tool bench sets due to red and blue screws in the sets posing a potential choking hazard. While larger than typical choking size, the screws still present a possible threat to children's safety. Customers should contact Little Tikes to receive replacement screws in a regulated size free of charge or visit the company website for more information on the recall. Little Tikes prides itself on product safety and ensuring children's well-being.
Summary of Findings for KID's After Recall: Dangerous Products Remain in Homes
This a summary of some of the key findings that Kids In Danger (KID) uncovered in their 13th annual recall report. This year's report, After Recall: Dangerous Products Remain in Homes, focused on recall report data from 2013 children's product recalls and 2012 monthly reports on 2012 children's product recalls to determine recall trends and effectiveness. All data was either acquired through the CPSC or collected by KID. All analysis was done by KID.

Care label
The care label provides important information about a garment, including the size, care instructions, country of origin, brand name, fiber content, style number, and supplier code. It protects the buyer's brand name and includes details about the garment's construction.
Children and Advertsing
Children in the US watch an average of 25,000 to 40,000 TV commercials per year. Advertisers spend billions targeting children directly and influencing parental purchases. This influences unhealthy behaviors like tobacco, alcohol, and drug use as well as obesity. Advertising is linked to early sexual behavior and eating disorders in young girls. Possible solutions include educating children about marketing and banning some ads, but these approaches have limitations and drawbacks. Overall, advertising has transformed children's culture into one increasingly focused on consumerism.
Theoretical approaches to childhood
The document outlines two main theoretical approaches to viewing childhood:
1. The conventional approach views children as vulnerable and in need of protection from adult influences. It argues influences like single parenthood, media violence, and homosexuality threaten children's innocence.
2. The alternative approach sees children as individuals in their own right rather than incomplete adults. It is concerned that trends like increased marketing to children undermines parental authority and contributes to issues like decreased attention spans and increased consumerism amongst children.

Being safe in the kitchen
Dishwashers pose risks to children such as access to sharp knives and detergent exposure. To reduce risks, point sharp items down, only fill detergent when running the load, and keep the dishwasher closed when not in use. Kitchen ranges can tip over if a child leans on or climbs them, so ensure ranges are installed with anti-tip brackets and keep children away from the range. Soft bedding like bumper pads and comforters can suffocate babies, so only use tight-fitting sheets and remove other items from the crib until age 1.

Wild Thing brief
Children are increasingly suffering from issues like obesity, depression, and lack of control. They spend less time outdoors than in the past, which may be contributing to these problems. The document proposes that increased screen time and less freedom to play outside have reduced children's connection to nature. It argues that outdoor, unstructured play is important for healthy development, but modern barriers like safety concerns, lack of green space, and emphasis on consumerism are keeping children indoors. To address this, the document calls for a campaign to "sell the outdoors" to children and parents by making nature appealing and accessible even in urban areas.

This document discusses the challenges of raising children in a consumerist society dominated by marketing. It notes how marketing targets both parents and children from a young age to encourage constant consumption. As a result, children often grow up viewing themselves as consumers first. The report explores family life in Europe today and voices concerns from European families about issues like media influence, commercialization, and lack of sustainability education for children. It then provides visions for creating a more sustainable childhood, such as teaching sustainability in schools, restricting child-targeted advertising, and transforming urban environments to be more child-friendly and connected to nature.

This document summarizes a study on pregnant women's perceptions of alcohol use during pregnancy. The study interviewed 50 pregnant women in Switzerland about their alcohol consumption. While all acknowledged risks to the fetus, some reported abstaining and some reported strong reduction but not total abstention. Women questioned the need for zero alcohol based on mode of consumption, personal experiences, norm perceptions, and values of autonomy and holistic pregnancy. They constructed their own understandings of responsible drinking during pregnancy amid scientific and social uncertainty about low to moderate alcohol effects. The cultural status of alcohol as normal influenced perceptions more than for smoking, seen as always dangerous.Professor Robbie Sutton, Professor of Social Psychology, University of Kent: ...

Slides from Policing Pregnancy: A one-day conference on maternal autonomy, risk and responsibility. April 2016.‘No drinking’ policy and advocacy: perspectives from Europe
This document summarizes a presentation on guidelines for alcohol intake during pregnancy in Nordic countries. It finds that all four countries (Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway) recommend abstinence from alcohol for pregnant women. Denmark was the only country that openly communicated the lack of evidence of risk from low to moderate alcohol intake. The rise of the precautionary principle, in which risks are prevented in the absence of scientific proof of harm, appears to justify the abstinence guidelines. Further, symbolic moral views of protecting fetal purity and defining the ideal mother may influence the messaging to pregnant women.

Introductory comments
This document provides an introductory commentary on issues of gender and equality. It discusses alternative narratives around power and how affect drives internal conversations and changes in practices. It raises theoretical issues such as considering inequalities across public and private spheres and how relationships are shaped by broader gender discourses. It also discusses methodological issues like interviewing couples together or apart and observing practices. Finally, it notes the personal nature of this research and how researchers' own biographies and emotions may shape their work.

This document outlines a study comparing parenting discourses in media sources from the Netherlands and Germany. It discusses the research context, definitions used, and hypotheses about how parenting norms and policy changes may be reflected differently in each country's media based on factors like historical influences, the role of expertise, integration of mothers in the workforce, activation of parents, the role of fathers, and emphasis on child well-being over time. The researchers aim to analyze news articles from quality newspapers in both countries to understand evolving cultural norms around parenting.
Playful hanneknudsene mun
This document analyzes how personal responsibility of parents has become a public matter through "responsibility games" used by schools in Denmark. It discusses how these games paradoxically both dislocate and deconstruct the very notion of personal responsibility. The games risk producing "ethical temptations" that compromise personal responsibility by defining mutual responsibilities according to the school's terms and asking parents to publicly reflect on private decisions. This turns personal responsibility into a performance role directed by the school rather than an autonomous notion.

Parenting and neuroscience
1. Neuromania asserts that human consciousness and behavior are identical to neural activity in the brain. However, being human involves more than just having a functioning brain - it involves embodiment, selfhood, and relationships between minds.
2. Current neuroscience has empirical limitations and conceptual muddles in reducing complex human phenomena like love and free will to brain activity. Correlations between brain regions and behaviors do not prove that the behaviors are identical to the neural states.
3. While neuroscience reveals necessary conditions of behavior and awareness, neuromania claims it will provide a complete account, but human experience extends beyond what can be captured by studying brains alone.
Pam lowe empty vessels
This document discusses the rise of parenting culture and its conceptualization of children as empty vessels that can be molded by parental actions. It argues that current parenting discourse views parents as solely responsible for children's development and sees children's behavior as determined by parenting. However, previous research shows that children are active social actors who negotiate their own lives and influence the parent-child relationship. Conceptualizing children only as products of parenting ignores their agency and the complex social factors that shape their development.

The document summarizes key points from a conference on mental health, social care, and the circulation of neurologic knowledge. It discusses how:
1) Neuroscience is increasingly prominent in psychiatry and helps authorize diagnostic categories. However, implications for psychotherapy are complex.
2) Service users position the brain as the locus of their illness, blending experiential and media knowledge about the brain.
3) Neurologic ideas circulate in popular and professional contexts but are loosely incorporated and sometimes resisted in practice due to time constraints and preference for experiential knowledge.
Kent paper
This document discusses the shift in approaches to early childhood intervention in the UK from a focus on reducing child poverty to an emphasis on reforming parental behaviors and skills. It outlines the policies of New Labour, the Coalition government, and organizations like the Centre for Social Justice that promote investment in the early years and parenting programs to break intergenerational cycles of disadvantage. Critics argue this redefines social problems in moral terms and focuses narrowly on educational and economic goals rather than challenging inequality.

Safety for Small Fry: children and safety in Consumer Culture
- 1. Dr Lydia Martens, Keele University Changing Parenting Cultures Seminar – Child-Rearing in a Risk Society
- 23. “ What is a child? A child is something that gets under your feet and into cupboards, something that explores the secret corners behind the washing-machine and knows that switches make machines work. A child is never quite high enough for its own objectives – it climbs, and pulls, and stretches until it can see over the edge of the kitchen table, grab the biscuits on the dresser, and finally reach the high-hanging key to the garden shed. Every age in childhood is an age of experiment and exploration. A child is unaware of danger … and you have no eyes in the back of your head.” (Good Housekeeping magazine, September 1961 (special on Kitchen’s Today) page 40)
- 24. “ Once your child becomes mobile, home safety becomes a critical issue. It's amazing what a crawling baby, an active toddler or a curious child can do in a split second. It is best to start thinking about making your home really safe even before your baby starts to crawl.

But it's easy for grown-ups to overlook other risks like table corners, slamming doors and electric sockets, which can be the cause of minor, and sometimes serious, accidents. While there is a lot you can do to make your home a safer place, you still need to be on your guard at all times.” (Mothercare website 2005)
- 25. ‘ At Mothercare we have a range of products designed to help keep your baby and toddler safe.’ But…’trust me but do not trust me completely’ ..
