Blog 34


Bloggy. How is it going? I’m currently watching Glee! So exciting.  But anyways, I need to blog about my CP article.  My paper was all about parents and their relationships with children, and how it affects the child’s life.  I decided to take that a little further.  I want to talk about instances when children become the adults in the family.  Children sometimes have to become the “responsible” ones, and for many different reasons.  Sometimes something has happened to a parent, or both parents, where an older sibling acts more as the parent.  Other times, a parent who has had drug problems or addictions with children can fail as the responsible parent.  In many cases, the oldest child will take responsibility for the younger children, or the girl in the family will act as the motherly figure.  I’m not really sure which way I will take this but I think with a few real-life instances, I will be able to prove my point a little better.  It seems that the parent will just leave the responsibility for the child, whether the child wants it or not.  But how do the children know how to handle that? Did their parents previously teach them, and are they just passing it on to their younger siblings?  I’m not sure if this is the exact way I’m going to take my article but I’m sure once I get started on it, it will get easier.  But for now I need to finish my ARP.  Goodnight Bloggy.
