Cases of child and elderly abuse Introduction Child abuse refers to a set of complex behaviours that include emotional, physical, sexual abuse and neglect. Many people are conversant with the physical form, which is the most common and entails punching, kicking, burning, beating, biting, and any form of action that physically harms a child. However, the other forms are also prevalent only that they are not easy to detect. Although there exist various laws across the world that aim to prevent and possibly eliminate child abuse, the issue is still rampant with the United States also receiving a significant share of child abuse reported cases. Similarly, cases of elderly abuse are also on the rise globally, and the US still features among the most affected. Elderly abuse is defined as the financial, emotional, physical, or psychological mistreatment of an older person. Experts attribute the worsening situation to the increase in the life span of human beings that promotes dependency. As a result, most older adults are viewed as a burden to family and society in general. Cases of child and…
MY ROLE AS A BACCALAUREATE PREPARED NURSE Being a nurse is not easy. Nurses are supposed to be not only helpful and compassionate but also capable of making difficult decisions and administering the right medical attention to patients in the absence of the doctors. Apparently, education plays a very crucial role in ensuring this but there are certain innate qualities that make one nurse better than the other. Nurses should have skills like effective interpersonal skills, exceptional communication skills, quick problem solving abilities, high sense of humor among others. All these qualities lie in both formal and informal capabilities of being a nurse. Therefore, this and much more exposes one to have different roles as a baccalaureate prepared nurse.

Heterosexuality Heterosexuality refers to the characteristic where people are attracted sexually to people of the opposite sex. The first time I realized that heterosexuality was the norm in society was when I was in my earlier stages of school. I remember very well I was about eight years old we were having lunch with the other pupils in our school. One of the girls who was bigger than the rest of us asked us to confess which boy we loved in class. It was interesting that all the girls were attracted to a different boy in class, and others were their desk mates. A certain boy in class also kept coming where I was, and he liked spending time with me. I also recall one time my neighbor, who was a boy coming to request me to join him play a game. This went on for a long time, even from other of my boy neighbors and church mates. I don’t deny the fact that I was also enjoying their company and even went to call them during weekends so…
discomforts experienced by women during pregnancy Introduction Recent medical reports have presented significant findings about the discomforts experienced by women during pregnancy. Many researchers, however, argue that the effects of such discomforts are always self-limiting and minor to the lifestyles of women. Lumbopelvic pain (LPP) is an example of musculoskeletal complaints that is described as “minor discomforts.” Women, on the other hand, may experience substantial levels of pain and disability, with economic and social consequences. Studies also show that lumbopelvic pain can cause an impact on the psychological health, impact sick leave and equally transform to a chronic pain condition. Several women have been reported to be requesting an elective caesarean or an early induction of labour in order to reduce the pain felt (Pierce et al., 2012). The central purpose of the author is to explore the nature and prevalence of lumbopelvic pain felt by women, especially during pregnancy. The design carried out for this purpose is a cross-sectional and descriptive study. The authors based their research on an Australian public hospital where women who were in their trimester…
Magritte’s view on paintings Magritte was an artist that surprised many with his creations. In most of his paintings, he always had an untold story, one that was not common to the eye of many. The painting, The Treason of Images, Magritte reproduced the image of a pipe but had the caption ‘this is not a pipe’ at the bottom of the painting. The link between the words and the picture is more honest than surprising. It was not a pipe; it was only a painting of a pipe. The painting was only a representation of an object that was used to smoke; in reality, the picture could not be called a pipe since it could not perform the action meant for a pipe. Magritte brought out the not so much dwelt argument on most paintings. His imaginations were limitless, and he always left people bewildered on what his next caption, translation of a picture would be. Magritte’s view on paintings was that they were unreal and only represented the images of real things. To him, it was unfair to…
How to start your own online business? Electronic commerce or the electronic business has been around for a long time in the world and in the future shops and markets, everything will go digital. Something that started working on e-commerce in Pakistan in 2000 and export-related and some other companies have shifted their business to the internet but still there is a big difference between the modern world and the local market. E-commerce is not far away in our trading centers, and business is still happening here today. In some places, there are also attempts to modernize the business, but the ‘hardware’ has been bought enough, but we are still far from the process of digitalizing the business. Does decorating a business with IT mean buying a few computers, composing / emailing, creating a company half page on social media or setting up a simple website? Digitalizing the business reduces the ‘option cost’ of the company but thus the company is not benefiting from IT, the upside is spending millions of rupees annually on maintenance / salaries. …

Questions From the positive side to debaters Tannenbaum and carl`s arguments As Frank explains the experience that the slaves went through, he clearly shows how the British were taking advantage of the Negro slaves. This is so because, the British were not ready to grant the slaves an opportunity to preach the gospel amongst themselves, but put them in the first line to participate in wars whenever it arises. This indicates how more cruel they were since they did not want the slaves to come into self-realization and obtain their freedom but rather stay in slavery. This can be seconded from the fact that, as the British forbidden the slaves to marry, they were being denied a right to raise a family of their own. And for those who were lucky to have one, they were separated from each other in the account of paying their debt in exchange for a loved one. For this reason, why were the slaves escaping if the law was protecting them? From the negative side to debaters Carl defined the slaves as an important…
Minority Groups in the United States Among the few first minority groups to enter into the United States included the Africans who came the country in the form of slaves. There were also the Latinos and the Chinese who served as a cheap source of labor for the Americans. The group which struggled significantly in their quest to attain full citizenship in terms of the natural rights were the African Americans. This group was subjected to a diverse form of segregation, which constituted the racial segregation. As a result of this, the discrimination prompted several civil protests and disobedience as the black Americans seek liberty and break off from the chains of discrimination and racial segregation. Up to the 1950s and the 1960s, civil unrest was actively experienced in the United States, specifically in the South. The movement advocated for the blacks to be granted some fundamental civil rights. Through these movements, some laws were amended, which included the fourteenth and the fifteenth amendments, which were incorporated in the United States constitution. The fourteenth amendment, for example, granted the…
