I interviewed a parent of a young, adolescent child. She described the reality of parenting and raising a child into a stand-up individual. This project assisted her to reflect on her parenting tools. Additionally, she informed me of helpful calm-down tools that I can provide to parents in my future mental health practice.
The aims of Wisdom are to improve the wellbeing of young carers through communication, bring young carers together within one virtual space and provide young carers with the tools to help them take back some control of their own lives.
I interviewed a nontraditional parent, an unmarried thirty-eight-year-old new mother, on her perspectives on parenting. I discussed the joys of parenting, the hardship of support, and the scarcity of information available for nontraditional families. As an occupational therapist, I will work with nontraditional families and parents. I will have an insight into the experiences they have and be able to provide resources and opportunities to benefit their child while easing the stress off the parent.

This is an interview that I conducted with a parent for my Parenting and Child Guidance class with Dr. Brown. I asked questions, analyzed their responses and connected them to course content, and gave suggestions/advice to this parent based on what I learned in class this semester.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
2. Lily, age 8, is the youngest daughter of Jen. She currently lives with her mom and older sister.
Over the past seven months, Lily’s mother and father have separated and are in the process of
getting a divorce. Lily and her sister live in their house in Florida with Jen on the weekdays and
go to the beach to see their dad on the weekends. If her weekend is filled plans and activities, Paul
comes to the house and stays to watch the kids while Jen goes to the beach. This dynamic is
installed so Lily does not have to move around as much since it’s not her fault or choice that her
parents are getting a divorce. As a newly single mother, Jen puts all of her effort and energy into
creating the best life for her daughters. Lily has a very busy schedule with many extracurricular
activities to keep her off the iPad and enhance her well-being. She participates in acro-dancing on
Mondays, gymnastics on Wednesday, has Girls Scouts every other Thursday (with Jen as the
leader), and piano lessons on Friday. Jen mentioned that if these extracurriculars were not in place,
Lily would likely sit on her iPad all afternoon, which is a breeding ground for problems. Jen’s
parenting philosophies do not align with creating avoidable interpersonal issues over screens; she
limits access and ability for the health of Lily. Jen believes the real fault of the public school system
that large, government-run buildings go out of commission after 2:00pm. Dance classes, Spanish
classes, or other extracurricular activities should be held at the school once the day is over. These
facilities are not being used for half of the day. Our society requires parents to pick their children
up from school, drive them to their activities, and then pick them back up. If these programs were
offered at the school, it may increase the number of children who participate and by effect children
will spend less time on screens and more time socializing and growing as small humans.
JC adores that Stella can love and hate to great extremes. She is a very funny child that comes
up with a lot of creative things and ideas. JC mentioned that every parent thinks their kid is amazing
and the greatest to walk the earth because they are yours. It is literally in the DNA to love your
3. child unconditionally. In congruence, Jen said Lily is amazing. There is never a boring day with
her, and she makes things worthwhile. Prior to having children, Jen recalled contemplating the
meaning of life. Once she had kids, that thought has never crossed her mind because her whole
life has become about being a parent to her children. She constantly wishes she would have become
a mother earlier because if she knew how great motherhood was, she would have done it sooner.
She would have loved to have enjoyed being a mother while she was younger and for a longer
amount of time in her life. Being a mother of Lily makes Jen’s life eventful.
Lily is a very smart and very emotional young girl. She has a high IQ and is in the gifted
program; congruently, she is a more sensitive and emotionally charged child. Lily has highly
emotional outburst often. Jen is working on proactive approaches, and helping Lily not become
angry. Jen has instated a stars chart; when Lily receives two stars every day of the week, she
receives a special prize. Lily can receive one star for not saying mean things to Jen and the second
for using one of her calm down tools. Jen is working on having calm down tools become second
nature to Lily so she will remember to use them when she becomes angry, such as four-square
breathing or the 5-4-3-2-1 sensory tool. On especially good days, Jen will give Lily additional
privileges as a reward. Jen has many other positive reinforcement methods in place; however, these
methods don’t recorrect bad behavior. This causes Lily to take a longer time to earn rewards and
does not stop her bad behavior. Currently, Lily is experiencing about half good days and half bad
days; she is a challenging child. A lot of things don’t work for Lily, and she has a difficult and
unpredictable temperament.
Jen’s top priority as a parent is “Creating confident and kind, self-sufficient young women.
Not girls that need to grow up and find a husband because they can’t handle the world on their
4. own.” Jen wants Lily to be an independent and autonomous woman in the world and find a true
partner. Perseverance is another very important skill Jen instills in Lily. Jen’s parenting strengths
compliment her goal for her children. Jen is very organized, which is helpful due to all of Lily’s
activities and positive reinforcement practices. Jen has made a great effort to bond with Lily’s
friends’ parents. She has become very involved in the community and her children’s lives, even if
it means socializing with people she would not normally choose as friends. Socialization has been
one of the greatest and most influential skills in Jen’s parenting and Lily’s life.
Jen is not afraid to look outward for assistance with parenting Lily. Her primary resource for
parenting advice is her best friend, my mom, Amy. Amy provides Jen with a plethora of parenting
advice, podcasts, and books that worked for her in the past. Additionally, Jen uses Google for
references to parenting tools as well. Lily’s doctor is an important reference that Jen uses for advice
and guidance. She has created a great connection with the pediatrician and pays good money for
her expert advice. “You come into this world with a baby in your hands and then they say, ‘Okay,
go see this pediatrician in two weeks’, and you’re thinking ‘What about the 14 days before the
appointment. What do I do until then?’” Jen believes there needs to be far better resources at the
beginning of a child’s life. You are handed your baby in the hospital and expected to accomplish
so many goals and maintain the child’s safety with just your knowledge and research. She wishes
that the information was readily available to new mothers when you leave the pediatricians office
or when the child goes off to preschool. A book or handout would be very helpful that outlines
‘this is what you should be doing right now for your child’s stage in development’.
