Provide a hypothesis of Jefferson’s likely prognosis. What supports or services might maximize this outcome?

Assignment 2: Traumatic Brain Injury: Jefferson’s Case

When new parents are expecting a baby, they rarely consider the possibility that the baby could have significant challenges. For those who have children with severe, multiple disabilities, planning for the future is a critical, lifelong process and requires considerable investments of time and effort, while potentially causing significant stress to the parents. With advances in our understanding, there are many more resources available to children and families than there were previously.

Review the following scenario:

Jefferson is a six-year-old boy in kindergarten. He has suffered from cerebral palsy and a severe seizure disorder since he was an infant, resulting in significant physical and cognitive impairment. Although he has received services and support through early childhood intervention (ECI) services, as he enters formal schooling, his parents have become increasingly concerned about his future. Jefferson spends most of his time in a wheelchair and uses a special touchscreen augmentative communication device. In addition to their concerns about the future, Jefferson’s father also harbors considerable guilt that he or his wife might have caused their son’s disabilities.

Based on your research, respond to the following:

  • Summarize research related to the influence of nature versus nurture on the cause of Jefferson’s disabilities.
  • Provide a hypothesis of Jefferson’s likely prognosis. What supports or services might maximize this outcome?
  • Evaluate what Jefferson’s future might have been if he were being raised in the U.S. in the 1940s.

This essay will cover journalism in the western democracies and how the works of two philosophers have influenced the journalism process in these western parts. The two philosophers to be covered in this case are Slavoj Zizek and Jean Baudrillard. Slavoj Zizek was born in the year 1949 and is known to be a Slovene Philosopher as well as a cultural critic. He writes on a varied range of topics which include: culture studies, psychoanalysis, political theory, theology, and film theory. Zizek is an individual who aims at provoking society to think anew about many issues that happen around. His work in the eyes of many is seen to represent one of the two current notions of a progressive substitute- that of socialism rather than organizational imagination. There are two major themes of evaluation of ideas from Zizek which are lack of firmness in argumentation and failure to point out an effective alternative in his condemnation of current economic, social, and political arrangements. His political and philosophical positions have always been known not to be clear because of his lack of proper argumentation. His critiques have also made him known as a failure since he lacks consistency in his work. He has claimed to offer support to the revolutionary project by Marxist but one thing that has made the project unclear is his lack of vision.

Zizek’s work is generally known to lack facts of history which makes his work be more provoking rather than insighting. In this case, he is generally known to bring on confusion because he contradicts what is produced by other individuals. Information disseminated to the public through various ways is contradicted by his own findings because he lacks historical facts and has poor argumentation. This gives a clear impression that individuals who go through his findings are usually confused since they do not know whether to believe Zizek or other sources of information. It makes it difficult for people to understand the happenings around them due to the contradiction that occurs between the sources of information. In the western democracies, Zizek has played a role in undermining the importance of journalism because of his undertakings. Journalism is meant to brief people on all that happens so as to keep them posted but it has been difficult for them to understand because of Zizek’s contradictions.

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an article on Should nationalism be discouraged Substantiate your answer with facts and examples. It needs to be at least 250 words.

Should Nationalism Be Discouraged?” Substantiate Your Answer With Facts And Examples Nationalism is a term that has mainly been utilized for the purposes of describing two probable phenomenon. It has been widely been used to describe the different attitudes that people develop and happen to care of their national identities. Nationalism has also been actively used when describing the actions that the citizens within a country take when they are seeking to sustain their self determination (D’Anieri 43).

The concepts of nationalism have mainly raised questions concerning the notions of a nation’s ethnicity, their cultural ties and common origins. In this view an individual’s claim to being a citizen of a nation may be considered as either voluntary or as involuntary (D’Anieri 48). In terms of our self-determination, the concepts of nationalism do raise questions as to whether these concepts must be comprehended as requiring an individual to acquire full citizenship with absolute authority over any domestic or international affairs.

These nationalism concepts also raise questions concerning whether an individual may require satisfying lesser requirements in order to exercise absolute forms of nationalism. With reference to the above facts, the concept of nationalism should therefore be encouraged.The concepts of nationalism have previously been used by different people who have mainly been unsatisfied by the inconsistencies that exist between the social orders of their people and their identification with a country’s traditional identity (D’Anieri 119).

Such a situation normally results in anomie, a situation that requires the intervention of nationalists for efficient resolutions to the people’s problems (D’Anieri 125). In such situations, the societies have had to reinterpreting their identities while eliminating those elements that are perceived as being unacceptable for the major reason of reunifying their communities. For example, in the 18th century, the concepts of nationalism brought about the French revolution when the French citizens decided to begin pushing for ethnic equality and popular sovereignties.

Another good example of an instance where nationalism has led to the self determination aimed at ensuring popular sovereignty occurred during the American Revolution (D’Anieri 122). The Cuban Revolution that was led by former leader, Fidel Castro is another example of an instance where the forces of nationalism encouraged the people’s self-determination that was aimed at ousting the government of Fulgencio Batista. His government, which was backed by the unpopular American government, had failed in ensuring the social rights of their citizens who heavily relied on Castro and his rebel forces to solve these anomalies (D’Anieri 124).

Writing paper on crime prevention approaches in australia

I need some assistance with these assignment. crime prevention approaches in australia Thank you in advance for the help!

All the above factors should be taken into consideration by local authorities that are involved in the effort of reducing youth crime. It should be noticed that the role of the community is crucial for the reduction of youth crime, not only because the specific issue is highlighted by researchers and institutions in Australia, but also because the community usually intervenes in all activities of people living within its borders. For this reason, Korn (1997, 5) referring to the prevention of youth crime in Australia stated that an effective approach used when trying to develop plans for reducing youth crime in Australia would refer to the following issues: ‘a) assistance with parenting skills. b) structured pre-school education, enhanced literacy, and numeracy coaching if required. c) support for teachers dealing with badly behaved pupils, clear policies to deal with bullying. d) the whole of school programs to address truancy and exclusion which aim to keep young people in school not out, e) positive leisure activities which enhance a young person’s skills to resist peer group’ and so on (Korn, 1997, 5).

In other words, all approaches used in Australia in order to reduce youth crime should involve specific initiatives related to the community and the support to young people offering chances for them for creative activities.In accordance with a report published by Human Rights News (2005), ‘there are at least 2,225 child offenders serving life without parole (LWOP) sentences in U.S prisons for crimes committed before they were age 18. the United States is one of only a few countries in the world that permit children to be sentenced to LWOP. the Convention on the Rights of the Child, ratified by every country in the world except the United States and Somalia, forbids this practice, and at least 132 countries have rejected the sentence altogether’.

In other words, the measures taken against young offenders in the USA can be characterized as rather strict if taking into account the age of the offenders and the damage caused to their lives in the future. In the case of the USA, the existence of different jurisdictions (in accordance with the states) leads to the development of different approaches regarding the limitation of youth crime.

Writing assignment on the questions of morality of abortion and euthanasia

I need some assistance with these assignment. the questions of morality of abortion and euthanasia Thank you in advance for the help!

A newborn infant is also entitled as a person and there are no circumstances in which killing of innocent infants would be morally permissible in society. An argument that it is wrong to kill human beings who are innocent has been established. Therefore, since fetuses are human beings, they ought not to be killed aimlessly.Abortion is seriously considered an immoral act in very rare cases according to Marquis. The wrongness of killing a fetus is not defended and presented in society. When a human being is innocently killed, he or she is denied a chance to perform his or her plans such as experiences, enjoyments, projects, and activities to make him or her comfortable.

Killing a typical fetus is immoral and equivalent to killing another human being who is an adult. This comparison is made since a fetus is a person and we all developed from there. In the recent philosophical literature, the view of abortion has not been fully supported hence any type of abortion is entitled as immoral and should not be allowed. Abortion is immoral because it leads to the loss of many people in society who are innocent.Thomson does not in any way provide a defensive account of the right to life.

She argues that abortion is not killing a fetus unjustly hence it does not in any manner violate its right to life. She also argues that in cases where a woman is raped, she does not extend a right to life for the fetus. This implies that if a woman is raped, she has the right to kill the fetus through abortion. In this manner, Thomson does not support nor provide any defensive account of the right to life of fetuses in context.Arguments in favor of abortion have been opposed by the traditional conservative case as discussed by George and Lee.

The authors have defended the point&nbsp.that a human organism which begins at conception, in a sense of the term is very essential to a human being. The fact that practicing abortion means killing a person with his or her own rights makes it immoral. They argue that the killing cannot in any way be justified or be non-intentional.
