works cited. You have one "as cited in" and at this point in the game you will need to find the original citation for what you want to include.

4) You ask about the possibility of including some personal information to help elaborate and fill a section -- .I want to think on this a bit and this may be driven by whether you end up with a quant or qual study. Qual you would be okay with, quant maybe not, at least in the beginning. Usually the personal anecdotal stuff doesn't play out until the discussion section.

5) If you choose the instrument design then you will need to become an expert in psychometrics as well. I, of course, love the idea. And I think the idea fits really nicely with measuring traumatic grief.

6) I like the idea of connecting loss/death with attachment theory, that is one of my interests so that would be fun.

7) Let's focus on the prospectus and get that done along with the committee formation, etc. If we tackle what is required for the course then we can grade you when it is complete -- ..we will need to trust that they have it organized in a way that will result in this thing being completed.

Wetzstein, C. (1996, October 8). Poor parenting blamed for teen problems: Giving children choices can hurt. The Washington Times, 2.

In this newspaper article the author suggests that parents are linked to the behavior that children exhibit at home and in school. The purpose of the article is to argue that when parents offer children too many choices rather than set limits on their behaviors, children learn to disrespect parents and turn to anti-social behaviors to regain feelings of control and power. The author does not closely examine empirically the relationship between parental behavior and children's behavior or psychopathology specifically, however does examine the relationship that exist between parental influences and teenager behavior. The author does offer subjective conclusions regarding parental behavior however. The author suggests those parental feelings of helplessness and a well intentioned desire to allow their children freedom often results in a syndrome where children become over-empowered, and subsequently feel helpless and less secure. The answer to children's behavioral problems is more control from parents, who have an obligation to make children feel secure by setting limits, showing that they are secure themselves in their idealisms.

While both formal and informal services at the sites are geared to preventing child abuse and neglect, program case managers sometimes find that they need to take stronger, more drastic measures to ensure a child's safety and well-being. Case managers in a number of the programs call on child protective services workers for informal consultation and help when they are worried about a family, and several said that they had made child protective referrals (hotlined a family) at least once (Pelton, 2008. Pg 611). The informal consultation appears to go both ways: Child protective services workers in several locations reportedly ask the site case managers to keep an eye on families which they worry about but cannot serve themselves, given their caseload of even more urgent crises.

The worker must be able to cross professional boundaries to meet a wide variety of family needs. In order to serve the child, he or she must also develop a relationship with the whole family, since the child's well-being is often intimately bound up with the well-being of other family members. No agency attempting to move in a two-generational direction should expect the change to be easy (Wolock, 1984. Pg 530). Many of the obstacles experienced by welfare agencies apply just as forcefully to the other large service systems for poor children and families. For example, difficulties of mission plague both schools and child welfare agencies that consider reaching out to parents, just as they hamper welfare agencies that consider reaching out to children. In the school setting, teachers, administrators, and elected overseers may worry that a mission of academic excellence will be compromised by too much attention to the multiple needs that children and their families bring into the classroom. For child welfare agencies, the conflict is even starker: In an agency whose mission is to protect children, many of whom are in urgent danger, how can it be legitimate to pay comparable attention to their parents? Similarly, each system suffers isolation from other service deliverers and lack of expertise in the multiple problems of families. Each experiences its own set of demands on workers and on the organization as a whole, demands that must be balanced against the needs of families in any successful solution.
