The Home As A Sacred Center For Family Life, Jennifer Crockett, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

The Home As A Sacred Center For Family Life, Jennifer Crockett, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

The Family: A Proclamation to the World teaches many important principles about what should happen within the four walls of a home in order to create these feelings. It is inside the home that relationships are strengthened, children are taught, and joy is felt.


Helping Children Adjust To Divorce, Kristi Tanner, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Helping Children Adjust To Divorce, Kristi Tanner, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

The Family: A Proclamation to the World teaches the vital role of the family “as the fundamental unit of society.” Yet an important personal and family strength is the ability to adapt to less than ideal circumstances, such as those surrounding divorce. Parents who place their children first can protect them to some degree from the most harmful effects of divorce.

Creating Meaningful Family Traditions, Marissa Beebe, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

Meaningful family traditions provide parents with an invaluable tool for carrying out their divine responsibility to rear children in love and righteousness. As families establish and follow traditions, each family member is strengthened and the family as a whole grows in unity and love.

Importance Of Grandparents To Their Grandchildren, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Importance Of Grandparents To Their Grandchildren, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

Research suggests that children find unique acceptance in their relationships with grandparents, which benefits them emotionally and mentally. Grandparents can be a major support during family disruptions. Sometimes they're playmates for their grandchildren. They're very often role models and mentors for younger generations. They are also historians -- teaching values, instilling ethnic heritage and passing on family traditions.


Separations, Connections, And Boundaries: Important Knowledge For Married Couples And Their Parents, Joseph Ransom, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Separations, Connections, And Boundaries: Important Knowledge For Married Couples And Their Parents, Joseph Ransom, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

The issues that are present in the preceding situations all stem from a common source: the lack of proper familial connections and boundaries. Religion and family science have both agreed on this issue. In Genesis 2:24, the Judeo-Christian religious tradition mentions that a man and woman must separate and establish themselves as a married couple. Wallerstein also states that a person must separate themselves from their family of origin and create a new identity as a married person.1 Neither of these sources indicates that one is to completely cut off the connection with their families of origin. On the …


Getting Involved With Your Nieces And Nephews, Kaitlin M. Miller, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Getting Involved With Your Nieces And Nephews, Kaitlin M. Miller, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

We all have a family. Even if not all of us are married or have children, many of us have siblings who do have children. We can create relationships with our nieces and nephews to become close to them, and to help our brothers and sisters with family difficulties. The Family: A Proclamation to the World states that "Extended families should lend support when needed." Through the unique relationship that exists between aunts and uncles and nieces and nephews, there are many things that you can do to be a positive influence in your niece or nephew's life.


Family Strengths: Adaptive Ability, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Family Strengths: Adaptive Ability, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

Strong families develop predictable routines, roles, and rules that govern everyday life and provide for continuity and stability. Some of the more obvious patterns are who cooks, washes dishes, does the laundry, or fixes the car. Other less obvious patterns include the following: Who has the right to make what decisions? How do we handle differences of opinion? How do we express anger, affection, or other emotions?


Understanding And Enjoying Time With Grandchildren, Marissa Beebe, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Understanding And Enjoying Time With Grandchildren, Marissa Beebe, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

The Family: A Proclamation to the World calls upon extended family members to lend support to other family members when needed. Grandparents have a great opportunity to support their grandchildren, and in fact do much parenting of these children in their own right.


Sibling Rivalry: Adult Siblings, Jeremy Boyle, Stephen F. Duncan Nov 2018

Sibling Rivalry: Adult Siblings, Jeremy Boyle, Stephen F. Duncan

Forever Families

As siblings grow into mature adults, they hope and expect rivalries will recede into the past. For most siblings this is the case, but for some rivalry continues to burn deep. In some cases, new rivalries pop up. When sibling rivalry persists into adulthood, the conflict and self-doubts can be devastating. For those suffering these negative consequences, it's important to learn about sibling rivalry and how to minimize it.


The Great Recession And The Destruction Of Minority Wealth, Douglas S. Massey, Jacob S. Rugh Nov 2018

The Great Recession And The Destruction Of Minority Wealth, Douglas S. Massey, Jacob S. Rugh

Faculty Publications

It seems obvious now, but there was a time when social scientists paid little attention to wealth as a factor in America's system of racial stratification. For many years, researchers focused primarily on black-white differentials in education, employment, and earnings; and in these dimensions progress was clearly being made. From 1963 (just before the passage of major civil rights legislation) to 2001 (just after the economic boom of the 1990s), the ratio of black-to-white median household income rose from 33 percent to 64 percent. Over the same period, the black-white ratio for high school graduates climbed from 51% to 89%, …

The Multi-Scalar Organization Of Aging-Related Services In Us Rural Places, David L. Brown, Nina Glasgow, Laszlo J. Kulcsar, Scott R. Sanders, Brian C. Thiede

Faculty Publications

Many rural communities in the United States are experiencing significant population aging, and these changes in age structure are often associated with shifts in economic activity. The demands for certain goods and services are expected to vary across age groups, and public- and private-sector service providers may make decisions based on their interpretation of demographic trends. The extent to which these perceived changes in the demand for services align with their provision has significant implications for the well-being of the older residents of aging communities. In this article, we draw on case studies of four aging communities across the rural …

Toxoplasma Gondii Seropositivity And Substance Use In Us Adults, Bruce L. Brown, Andrew N. Berrett, Shawn D. Gale, Lance D. Erickson, Evan L. Thacker, Dawson W. Hedges Sep 2018

Toxoplasma Gondii Seropositivity And Substance Use In Us Adults, Bruce L. Brown, Andrew N. Berrett, Shawn D. Gale, Lance D. Erickson, Evan L. Thacker, Dawson W. Hedges

Faculty Publications

The intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii (Nicolle et Manceaux, 1908) infects humans resulting in acute toxoplasmosis, an infection that in immunocompetent people is typically mild but results in persistent latent toxoplasmosis. In that T. gondii appears to affect dopamine synthesis and because addicting drugs affect midbrain dopamine transmission, latent toxoplasmosis could influence substance use. Using both the third and continuous National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, we used logistic regression to test for associations between T. gondii seropositivity and subject self-report of having ever used tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, cocaine, heroin, or methamphetamine. …
