[Due Date] Homeschooling parents are at times seen as isolated, self-centered, and reclusive. They keep their children away from the markedly valuable commonplace school, the environment where children acquire the essential knowledge and experiences that equip them with the required skills to successfully deal with civic and societal demands. Levin and Belfield (2003) report findings that “private schools produce more community service, civic skills, civic confidence, political knowledge, and political tolerance than public schools” (Ladd & Goertz, 2014, 222). However, it is incorrect to portray homeschooling as dispossession or removal of schools of their valuable purposes. It is widely known ...

Consumer culture is a social scenario wherein consumption, a kind of human behavior noticed at all situations and places, is governed by the consumption of commercial products. It is more often bound with the idea of modernity i.e., a world that operates on flux rather than on tradition. In other words, consumer culture represents an economy which is material satisfaction of needs minus the value. Citizenship on the other hand is the belongingness to a given political entity, displaying loyalty towards a motherland and paying due respect to the norms and civic duties while residing in a country.

Introduction

Police officers and their actions fall under the scrutiny of the society and the Constitutional Amendments that protect their rights.

Police officers enjoy limited immunity and cannot be accountable individually. However, the department as a whole will face the damages. In the political climate today with shrinking police budgets, lawsuits ...

Different people describe inclusion ...

Police misconduct is not a frequent news headline. Yet, when incidents of police conduct do hit the news, the reason is the serious nature of the misconduct and its widespread impact. Even with the recognition that police misconduct cannot be completely eliminated, preventive measures and strategies to mitigate the impact of misconduct need to be in place. Existing measures and strategies also need continuous evaluation to support the necessary reforms to address emerging issues on police misconduct. Media frenzy, public outcry, and politicization of police misconduct often complicate effective response to this issue. When this happens, it helps to ...

Introduction

Teenagers will always try to fit and get along with their peers especially during the present time when they spend fewer moments with families and more being in engagements in various activities with colleagues and friends. Adolescence, for instance, is the time when peers impact an increasingly important role in the lives of many youths. Teenagers start developing friendships which tend to be more exclusive, constant and intimate than in their younger years (De Guzman, 2007).
