Sociological Factors In Adulthood

The parents do not realize that if they let their child got to college that it will help their family for the better since when their child does get a degree they would be qualified to find a well paying job. While thinking about class, culture, and family, you also tend to think about where their family came from and who were they raised by, how were they raised. We judged each other on our appearance, our hometown, and our social class. If you come from a high class family we think they are snobs, if you came from a bad city we quickly

Having free tuition for college means that more people who cannot afford it now, would end up going. This is a good thing in terms that more people are getting a good education and continuing their educational careers to hopefully obtain good job, but it also decrease the value of a college education. If more people are able to earn degrees, it devalues them. Finding jobs even with their qualifications would be difficult (Should college be free?). This idea would also apply to the students, mainly student-athletes, that work for multiple years to try to perfect their skill and obtain full or half scholarship.

These students have families that they need to support with better jobs, and in order to achieve those better jobs, the older students need to go back to school to earn the degrees that the jobs require. It is much easier said than done however. These older students who are trying to integrate back to school so they can help their families are unable to receive the job they need since the charge of the school is out of their reach. It is even harder for parents of new graduates to pay for college. The prices of schools in states “have skyrocketed in the last five years” (Citation).

I want to improve the CPS systems especially, because of work overload a lot of children are suffering. Eventually, I would like to open my own agency that will not only empower and/or encourage children to be there better self but will also secure them a future in life. An agency that is truly going to bring in positive and great results and would not consist of burnouts/work overload. Experience as a Student In undergraduate school, there were a lot of good moments, as well as struggling moments.

Not necessarily for college applications, but moreover on the experience that I will gain by being a member. In fact, the opportunities such as giving back to the school and the community will surely hold more value than it would in my college applications. In addition, if I do get accepted, I will surely not be the first to write that I was an NHS member, so would it really make much of a difference? I believe I will be a great contribution for the National Honor Society.

Turning points like marriage, career, and military services are events which develop maturity and responsibilities that are critical in the age-graded theory. Siegal and Welsh state “according to the age-graded theory, people can knife off from crime if they receive the proper social support” (Siegal and Welsh, 2014, p. 135). The age-graded theory gives examples of life courses that seek to explain the interaction between individual factors and antisocial behaviors. The turning points in the life course, can identify the events and incorporate the relationship to social interactions which determine whether one chooses crime or noncriminal activity. The social development model is a life-course theory that discusses how human behavior is developed during life-time.

Education plays an important role to allow me to move up the social ladder. Although my family cannot provide me a sufficient financial support to continue my postgraduate studies, I am able to finish my undergraduate studies due to the assistance of TSFS and learn some professional knowledge. Also, I can learn foreign language course in the university so that I can have a higher competitiveness in the future occupation. Indeed, the undesirable financial condition of my family’s current social class position may cause some disadvantage and avoid me to get some life chances like the opportunities to study postgraduate courses overseas. This may also affect me to get a higher professional job in the future.

Although studying abroad may be much harder than studying in Kuwait, student will be exposed to various experiences during their studying period. Moreover, parents will also benefit from studying abroad in as much it will be less expensive. However, parents should be careful about their children when they desire to send them to study abroad. Students are enrolling in study abroad program more than ever before as a way to develop their intercultural knowledge and skills. To maximize the benefits to students, study abroad programs should be developed to facilitate the growth of intercultural knowledge and skills.

In all aspects of life, I try to be different than the average person. This belief has led me down the path of drug abuse and mental illness, both of which I deal with to this day. Through trying to break out of the societal norm bubble, my parents took an open approach to parenting. The common religious beliefs of that time, like anti gay rhetoric, were the reason my parents wanted to escape the grips of conformity. Their beliefs then impacted their parenting method to allow their children to learn what they want and speak openly and honestly with each other.

With college experience people will be more successful in life with a good job and a nice house. However, people can’t enjoy their money if they keep spending it on student loans. If you go to work early then go to college you won’t have to pay back student loans, and you will have work experience. Without having to pay loans you can enjoy the money you earn and spend it on whatever you

However, many don’t want to drop out from their studies; they want a better education and better jobs that will pay them well. Not to have to work in a job that pays them low wages and to top it off still have to pay the loan they applied for to stay in college. It’s an everyday struggle young people go through every year just to stay in college to get their education. In the book On the Frontier of Adulthood Frank F. Furstenberg state that “More youth are extending education, living at home longer, and moving haltingly, or stopping altogether, along the stepping stones of adulthood.” Young people not reaching their adulthood, and still living at home to pursue, there dream of going to college.

In “The Dangers of Telling Poor Kids That College Is the Key to Social Mobility”, Andrew Simmons, a high school teacher who teaches in a poor area of Los Angeles, argues that students should be taught to go to college in order to have “an intellectual awakening”. The writer’s purpose is to persuade and inform his readers to accept his view on the flaws of the education system. According to Simmons, teachers promote higher education by focusing on the economic advantages it could bring instead of the actual education that is offered. Because teachers focus on the financial benefits of college, students in poor areas focus on their potential wealth instead of their future education while students in wealthier areas focus on their future careers

9.) Normative age-graded influences have strong correlation with age. This is where children transition from one setting to another based on age. An example would be transitioning from elementary school to middle school. Where middle school is less structured than elementary school and more complex.

Summary According to Dictionary.com, poverty is defined as the state or condition of having little or no money, goods, or means of support; also known as a condition of being poor (Dictionary). In the article, “The State of Poverty in America,” written by a renowned lawyer and author, Peter Edelman, the issue of poverty and the extent of how widespread it has domestically become is redundant throughout. Within his writing, he explains in great detail how poverty is a deeply rooted problem that society faces in two ways, as well as the longtime affects of the troubles and hardships poor people experience every day. The first way poverty is categorized is when people consistently work long and hard hours for a job that is very low-waged with no benefits.
