Non-tridictional relationships

Rachel Briggs

Being in a non-traditional relatioship with your parents can cause a lot of promblems to the child as they get older.There are effects like low-selfesteem, the child may feel as if there nobodys all because there parents gave them that empration.Or they may feel as if they have no one to run or talk to. A good relationship with your parents is very important because the child may have a good outcome of the world.They will look at others and themself in a differnt way.If you can't look up to your parents ,who can you look up to.

NO ATTENTION (SHOW NO LOVE)

When parents dont show there kids the attention he or she needs the child tends to get in trouble alot.For example in school, and on the streets. The majority of teenagers that is looked up in detentions homes are mainly bacause of there own house hood. And how the parents not always around or dont even ask how was there child day. It do bothers the kids they just show it in a diffent way instead of expressing there emotions.some parents don't even take the time to talk to there child or even spend enough time.

continuation of me introducing what kind of BC's are out there

The shot. Which is called "Depo-Provera." you receive this every 3 months. I would recommend this to people that is irresponsible because all you have to do is go to the clinic and get your shot every 3 months. My cousin gets the shot she did gain a little weigh but not a lot. But my godson mother gets the shot and she gained a lot of weight. I guess it depends on you and you apatite, and how active you are. Family members say this is very convent in there life. But once again this doesn't protect you from std's or sti's. So i would still advise you to always make your sex partner use's a condom.

There are other forms but we are to young to get them. So if you are not taking any of these i would tell you to use condoms protect yourself but even if your are taking birth control you shuld still rap it up stay safe

Non-tridictional relationships

When I interviewed my brother he had a diffrent feeling than I do about are mother.Its like he has no feelings for her and like he said he cant stand the ground she walk on. What I didn't understand was why do he hate her so much and I don't, Eventhough we both been through the same thing.Javele and i are only 1 year apart so its not like things was so much diffrent before i came in this world. I feel that my mother just needed help and that she was to young and really dident understand the mother hood.I do love her for bringing me into this word. And I respect the fact that she is trying to be around us now more than ever.Before my grandmother died she wasent coming around but when she pasted my mother started to show.That shows that she cares eventhough she tryed to hide it before.
My Brother feels that she should of been around,He dont care what she have to say. He feel betrade and disrespected.Which i can can understand because when your mother tells her children not to call her mommy it's like she dident want us in the 1st place and that hurts.

Abusive Relationships Continuation

I first start off my interview with a question that I wanted to hear from others and that question was to my client "What does abuse mean to you?" She seemed hesitant at first but then began saying "To me it simply means fighting and arguing...physically." Well I think there is more than just those words she spoke before I even came to ask her that question, I researched it myself on a web article by Michelle New, PhD. Who wrote on what abuse is and after my cousin gave me her definition of what it meant I gave her the real meaning of it which is "Everyone has heard the songs about how much love can hurt. But that doesn't mean physical harm: Someone who loves you should never abuse you. Healthy relationships involve respect, trust, and consideration for the other person." When I told her what it meant she gave an eye brow expression, you know like how people get when their shocked or surprised or maybe even speechless that kind of look. I don't think that people who are abused know that abuse is really serious and not so much as a big deal. But little do they know it is. The introduction from Michelle New about abusive relationships was quiet relieving I must say. She gave information on how it began and where the problems mainly come from. She stated in her report that "Abuse can sometimes be mistaken for intense feelings of caring or concern. It can even seem flattering. Think of a friend whose boyfriend or girlfriend is insanely jealous: Maybe it seems like your friend's partner really cares about him or her. But actually, excessive jealousy and controlling behavior are not signs of affection at all. Love involves respect and trust; it doesn't mean constantly worrying about the possible end of the relationship."
Now personally I really agree with what she is saying and so did my cousin because I feel as though in a relationship there is bound to be jealousy somewhere, whether its your partner glancing at someone else or a disagreement on a topic. There will be a little jealousy role in the play.
To know if your being abused or if you know someone who is being abused there are signs of this action:

Signs of an Abusive Relationships

Important warning signs that you may be involved in an abusive relationship include when someone:

• harms you physically in any way, including slapping, pushing, grabbing, shaking, smacking, kicking, and punching
• tries to control different aspects of your life, such as how you dress, who you hang out with, and what you say
• frequently humiliates you or making you feel unworthy (for example, if a partner puts you down but tells you that he or she loves you)
• coerces or threatens to harm you, or self-harm, if you leave the relationship
• twists the truth to make you feel you are to blame for your partner's actions
• demands to know where you are at all times
• constantly becomes jealous or angry when you want to spend time with your friends

Unwanted sexual advances that make you uncomfortable are also red flags that the relationship needs to focus more on respect. When someone says stuff like "If you loved me, you would . . . " that's also a warning of possible abuse. A statement like this is controlling and is used by people who are only concerned about getting what they want — not caring about what you want. Trust your intuition. If something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't.

Signs That a Friend Is Being Abused

In addition to the signs listed above, here are some signs a friend might be being abused by a partner:

• unexplained bruises, broken bones, sprains, or marks
• excessive guilt or shame for no apparent reason
• secrecy or withdrawal from friends and family
• avoidance of school or social events with excuses that don't seem to make any sense

("Abusive Relationships, Teen Health")

These are just to name a few of if you face these signs. But if your like me and have a friend or relative who has actually came forward in telling you that they are facing a situation similar or exactly like this, then you as a friend should help that person out or get them some help. It wouldn't be right if your just going to let the conflict continue. Step up and be a bigger person in helping them getting out of it and rehabilitating them from the abuser.

im finally startn my search to help children

Hey i am finally starting my search. I went to www.google.com and type in birth control and a lot of information there are so many birth control the young teenagers can get on . Instead of been a teen mother i think the year of 2007/08 is a high year a pregnancy from young teenager having unprotected sex. Where they could be introduce to birth control and all of this could be prevented. here are some of the birth control the young teenagers can be introduce to
1)The IUD. The letters "IUD" stand for "intrauterine device." Is very small. It is surgically placed into the female uterus. There are 2 forms of IDU'S tho. "IUDs work by preventing an egg from being fertilized, scientists are not exactly sure how this happens." but there is theories behind it:
* It affects the way the sperm or egg moves
* Substances released by the IUD immobilize sperm
* It moves the egg through the fallopian tube too fast to be fertilized.
The copper in the "ParaGard adds to the effectiveness of the IUD in other ways." It affects the lining of the uterus by not allowing an "egg to implant and it stimulates the production of prostaglandins chemicals that affect the hormones needed to support a pregnancy." "The ParaGard can be a long-term method that may be left in for 8 years."
The "Progestasert IUD prevents pregnancy by releasing the hormone progestin which thickens the cervical mucus." This prevent sperm from entering the uterus. 'The Progestasert also affects the lining of the uterus to prevent an egg from being implanted." But because of the "hormonal component of the Progestasert it must be replaced yearly." The rate of women getting pregnant using the "ParaGard is 0.8% and the women using Progestasert the rate is 2%." The IUD's DO NOT PROTECT U FROM (STI OR STD) SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS. Also if you are planning to have children in the future they DO NOT recommend you to use eaithe 1 of the IUD's. You still reciece your period with the IUD.

2)Birth Control Pills. Personally I take the pill right now so I wont have a mistake and get pregnant. so far I like the pill, the only thing is i have to remember to take the pill every morning. I also like it because my periods are very light and i barley have camps. I really wouldn't recommend this if your not responsible., because if you miss a day or two you will have more then on period that month and your cycle will be messed up until you get back right with the pills. you can even bleed for a whole month. so if your not responsible DO NOT USE THIS METHOD. The pill have been being used by females for 40 years. But it has been around "in the US since 1960.' The birth control pill due "include 2 hormones called estrogen and progesterone." These hormones are "synthetic versions of naturally occurring female hormones." But with BCP you have 2 options to choose from which is the 28 day pill packs which contain 3 weeks of active hormone pills and 1 week placebo pills and the 21 day pill packs which contain 3 weeks of active hormone pills only. You have your period after you finish taking your active pills. which is nice because you know exactly when your period is suppose to come. Birth control pills are "98 to 99% effective". The pills also DO NOT protect you from STD's or STI's.

In the middle of my research

I still have yet to have all my questions answered. I do fortunately know a little more than what i did when i started off. When a child is born it is not a set in stone that a boy would be attracted to boy things and same thing with girls. Some people enjoy doing certain things. As a female child grows up she might not like to play with barbies and ponies. Also most boys like to play with trucks and footballs but some boys may not enjoy that and might like doing hair or playing with babydolls. It also goes that way with their sexuality, some people just might be attracted to the same sex and this can be because of various reasons. One reason may be that their conceited. By this i mean they love there body and everything about them and thats what their attracted to so when the try and find a mate they find someone wth all the qualityies they have and that just might happen to be a person of the same sex. Another reason may be because they been hurt so many times they just give up. By saying this i mean some women may have very bad choice in men and then they get together with these cheating lying dude who beat on them and treat them badly. So after all they then been through with these men they just give up and in their head all men is the same so the go to women lookin for that love that the men they were messing around with couldnt give them. The last thing i learned is that some people who are homosexual are just doin that to rabel against someone. If your living in a very stict home and never get to exsprese yourself you want you tend to lash out to get the attintion, and some people use homosexuality as a way to do so. So far this is all i have learned and i am very intersted into learning alot more.

birthcontrol

sex, pregnancy, std's... Are one of the main topics in teenagers' lives in the year of 2008 and still rising.. For example, as I walk in the school i hear the little girls in school saying "girl me and my boyfriend just got it in yesterday it was good." I have heard and seen so many girls expecally freshmens pregnant this year. The younger generation today are starting to get there period much earlier then the women in the older generation. They are also becoming more sexually active at a young age like 14. At the age 14 i was still playing with baby dolls i did receive my period but i was far from be in sexually active. STD's are becoming higher in the younger generation also because this is when they think they are in love with there boyfriends and or girlfriends, and they start having unprotected sex and end up getting a STD's that are not cure able. then have to live with it for the rest of there life.
