The Pursuit of Happyness

The Impacts of Norms, Roles, and Institution

Ex. Christopher protraying his role as a father when his wife wants to take thier child with her

Roles refers to the responsibility and customs that a person performs seen in various ways in society

Norms refers to standards and patterns that are found thoughout society

Theoretical Perspectives on Development

Hierachy of Needs

When somone doesn't have a stable foundation yet, they aren't able to focus on other tasks which includes relationships before their foundation is stable

This theroy suggest that an individual must create a stable foundation of needs (housing, food, electricity) before moving up in life

Systems Theroy

Ex. Christopher wife leaving him, making his son believe it was his fault

An article published by Edward Kruk of Psychology Today had learned that many kids tend to blame themselves for the disappearance of one of their or both of their parents

This theory goes into depth about ways people join or leave familes

The personality of family members can and usually are shaped by other member within the family

Idea on how family members interact as well as influence one another

How do economic & emotional struggles of a father impact his relationship with his son?

Trends, Issues, and Challenges

Ex. He needed to pick up his son ealier compared to other interns, giving him less time to complete his work

Ex. Christopher no longer being able to afford to pay for rent

It had also seemd that fathers that have lost their jobs often experience feelings of guilt as well as a sense of faluire.

A study from American Association for marriage and family therapy had discovered that many familes struggling financially and econmcially tend to suffer from depression, anxeity, severe grief, and many other mental health issues

Life is full of challenges that may inadvertently affect or end relationships

Attachment Theory

Secure Attachment

Ex. Christopher plays make believe with his son in a train station

This attachment represents the security the child feels with this caregiver, ultimately allowing the child to rely on them in need

A secure attachment is what many caregivers strive to attain with their child

The attachment between father and son is detremental to the quailty of the relationship between them

Parenting Styles

Authoritative

Ex. Christopher yells at his son after they're kicked out of their hotel room

As discussed in class children from authoritative parenting households tend to be happier, self-reliant, cooperative, and are high achievers in school

Authoritative parenting style allows the child freedom within limits, ultimately giving them a sense of freedom, but in times of seriousness shows firm control

Parenting Styles are methods on how parents/caregiver raise their children
