Different strategies and approaches initiated and implemented by various nations and institutions yielded results that were below the expectations. This forced the stakeholders in children affairs to rethink on the avenues they previously employed. For instance, in 1990 the United States Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect recommended for the change of the country’s child protection system after observing it did very little to assure the children their welfare in the contemporary society. Kimbrough-Melton and Campbell (2008) found that,

It is about MacMillan hospital and the problems that generated from the department of medical imaging. The department had contracted its services to Good View Company and the major shareholder was Goodview (Darr, 2001, p. 322). He started neglecting his work and ...

Abstract

Contemporary attachment theory also known as modern attachment theory is a psychological paradigm that seeks to elucidate the changes of long term and short term relational association among humans. The theory specializes on specific aspects of human response to specific occurrences in their lives rather than the general relationships. For instance, a young child will develop a strong attachment to the person who is taking care of them regularly. On the other hand self psychology theory is an advanced psychoanalytic theory whereby efforts to understand individuals from within subjective experience is made through abnormal self-examination basing renditions on the ...

Is there a valid contract between the parties or May Jones legally have the contract declared as not valid?

For a contract to be valid, it should contain parties competent of contracting, approval of the parties, a legitimate objective, and consideration (Swartz 23).Jones went into a contract with defendants knowing of the special clauses within the contract. There was consent, there was competency, and there was a legitimate objective and consideration. Therefore, the contract was valid. However, a contract relating to a minor (a person under 18) might be implemented or annulled by the minor, except for the contract being for basic requirements for instance foodstuff, accommodation, of which one might be held accountable for the rational price of what was acquired.

Introduction

Domestic violence has adverse impacts on the development of a child. In fact, the emotional turmoil created by growing up in such an environment heightens the chances of the infant engaging in rebellious activities such as drug abuse and other denial behaviors in their youth. With this in mind, it is worth appreciating the fact that Susie’s exposure to childhood molestation at an early age contributed to her drug problems and overall response to his abusive marriage. Since she witnessed her mother withstand the abuse she received from his father, she felt obliged to keep up with his ...

As such, such a decision maker will have two rational choices namely the subjective expected utility choice which is applied to identify the alternative that has the best value or engage in the decision-making process which is a systematic application of various stages of decision making. Clearly, Peter, Fran’s boss, is in total oblivion of this paradigm. The manner in which he handles Fran’s absence ...

Introduction

There has been a lot of controversy concerning the position that should be held by women in the labor market. Apparently women tend to be side lined when it comes to management and leadership roles. However, this notion has, from time to time, been scraped out of people’s perception, and it has been seen that gender and equality balance has become dominant principle among many organizations. On the other hand, many organizations tend to lean on the traditional side of leadership roles, where a woman was supposed to be a follower but not a leader.

Distinguish between slander, libel, defamation, deceit, and trade slander, indicating the instances each would apply and the significance of the dissimilarity.
For a statement to be actionable and considered to be defamation, it has to be published, false, and derogatory and must refer to a specific person. If it refers to a group of people, it is not defamation. A defaming statement cannot be complimentary even if not true. It must also have the effect of disadvantaging the individual, in that it has to be told to a third party possibly the media causing other people to avoid the plaintiff.
