Many changes happen from conception to birth. A single-celled zygote multiplies and grows over approximately 9 months into a living, breathing human being composed of trillions of cells. That’s quite an amazing feat! With such rapid growth occurring, it is not surprising that the developing fetus is vulnerable to a number of different environmental influences.For this Assignment, you will examine an infant case study to determine short-term developmental outcomes.Refer to the following Case Study about Sam, a male infant:An infant male, Sam, was born to Jane and Roberto. Jane works in the city as a medical transcriptionist, but requested 12 weeks of family leave effective immediately upon Sam’s birth. Sam was born 6 weeks premature, by Cesarean delivery. His Apgar score at 1 minute was 5; after receiving oxygen, his Apgar score at 5 minutes was 8. Apart from the first few minutes after birth, Sam has not required oxygen or respiratory assistance. Because of his prematurity, Sam stayed in the hospital for 72 hours before he was discharged. Jane drank occasionally throughout the pregnancy, but reported drinking most heavily during the last trimester of her pregnancy, which was about the time Roberto got laid off from his job. There is suspicion, although not confirmed, that Sam has Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). Sam is a fussy eater, requiring short and frequent feedings. He has been home for 2 weeks and wakes up hungry every 2 hours. He does not sleep through the night. Roberto and Jane live in a house in a rural area. They do not have a network of friends and family who live nearby who can help, but Jane’s mother has offered to move in with them temporarily. Roberto and Jane’s mother get along very well. Jane is debating whether she should reduce her family leave and go back to work earlier than she had planned.Many of the details in the above case study have purposely been left ambiguous (e.g., ethnicity, geographic location, etc.) so that you can make some conjectures of your own and relate that to Sam’s short-term and long-term prognosis. To prepare for this Assignment:
Review the Learning Resources for this week and consider any environmental factors that might affect the infant’s development.
Search the Internet and/or the Walden library to find articles related to the case study that might support your findings.
For this Assignment:Write a 2- to 3-page paper and include the following:
Explain the environmental factors presented in the Case Study, as well as others that may be present but not specifically identified in the Case Study that might affect Sam’s development.
With the environmental factors you explained, further explain what you think the best case scenario and the worst case scenario might be for Sam’s short-term developmental outcomes and explain why.
There are other environmental factors present in Sam’s case which may influence his development. These include parental influences such as Roberto getting laid off from his job before Sam’s birth, leaving him without income around the same time Jane was drinking more heavily during her pregnancy. This could create stress on both parents which might be passed down to the child through prenatal exposure or parenting behavior postnatally (Gunnar & Quevedo 2007). In addition, he lives in a rural area without much family or community support nearby but with an offer from Jane’s mother to move in temporarily – suggesting some level of financial hardship for the family that needs to be taken into account when assessing potential risk factors affecting infant development.
Finally, it should also be noted that Jane has requested 12 weeks of family leave effective immediately upon Sam’s birth – indicating she may return to work earlier than planned due to economic pressures caused by Roberto losing his job. While this decision would no doubt provide necessary financial stability for the young couple and their son in the short term, it would likely have consequences on their ability to bond with each other and create secure attachment relationships with their infant over time – something essential for healthy later development (Herthel & Stoneman 2019).
around their ability to unionize. For instance, the Philadelphia Cordwainers Case (1806) involved cordwainers, or shoemakers, who unionized to fight efficiently manufactured footwear in Philadelphia. Their association was instantly disbanded and the individuals from the association were indicted and needed to pay fines. In Individuals v. Fisher (1835), the High Court of New York State held that the unionizing of bootmakers, for reasons unknown, was unlawful, again refering to the development of associations as a scheme. In District v Chase, individuals from the Boston Understudies Bootmakers’ General public were pursued for connivance, as they all in all kept their administrations at whatever point a nonunion understudies was employed. The understudies were sentenced in just twenty minutes. Furthermore, lawful cases concerning representatives included their insurance and the conceivable risk bosses might have if they somehow happened to be harmed. Legislators were confronted with a serious legitimate quandaries, as industrialization established new work environment conditions – should representatives be expected to take responsibility for any wounds, despite the fact that they were working in very perilous circumstances and new to their various collaborators? Or on the other hand should bosses be expected to take responsibility, despite that they had an excessive number of workers to direct? By and large, the law favored bosses. Bosses were some of the time not even expected to take responsibility on the off chance that a worker was harmed. In the individual worker rule, a representative was not permitted to sue their manager assuming they were harmed. Rather, they were urged to sue an individual representative for carelessness. This shows up in Murray v. South Carolina Rail Street (1841). Also, in Farwell v. The Boston and Worcester Railroad Co. (1842), Farwell, a designer for the railroad was harmed in light of the fact that another worker was careless in their obligations. Farwell attempted to sue his boss, yet the court observed that businesses are not at risk for the carelessness of different workers and that individual representatives ought to care for one another.
By and large, in the period under the watchful eye of 1877, the law “adjusted” connections among businesses and representatives for bosses. Laborers, whether they be obligated workers or modern representatives, were liable for them and any injury brought to them. They had restricted opportunity and were to a great extent not permitted to unionize. Managers were not at risk to any damage that came to them, but instead, workers were liable for one another and paid for one another’s activities.
2. What were the main legitimate improvements during the Nationwide conflict and Recreation? For what reason did they happen? Examine. (5)
The main legitimate improvements during the Nationwide conflict and Recreation center exclusively around the administration and expanding the force of the public government, especially the Presidential Branch. The Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth changes, regulations that were ordered during that time explicitly intended to better the state of African Americans, held promising possibilities, and were clearly importan
