1. Covenant marriage; South Carolina is considering implementing this as law and wants your researched opinion as to the effects and possible issues involved with such a law. Would it strengthen marriages?
2. Mandatory implementation of Levinger’s model of Divorce Decisions which would be utilized before any divorce proceeding in South Carolina. If upon “further review” it is determined by an outside panel of experts and the couple that divorce is not in the best interest of all involved a moratorium on the divorce would be enforced. A “cooling off” period while each person perhaps gets individual therapy. Discuss the model along with why or why not you would support such a rule.
3. Hyperparenting and the concerted cultivation parenting models should be taught in schools and prior to anyone having children. Licensing would be one way to track parenting education for tax purposes. In fact, South Carolina is considering tax breaks for parents who agree to use this style. Is this something that you would support? Do you think there are far to many parents who don’t have a clue about how to parent?
4. The Pornification and cyberadultry effect on relationships. The openess and assertiveness now available to women has created a more equal and better relationship between men and women. Has it?

4-5 sentences about sociology of the family

Question Description

Read both articles attached and write a response 4-5 sentences for each article
Responses should not be simple summaries of the reading, but instead should interact with it/engage it/render an opinion about it. Students can do so in multiple ways, such as: 1) critique logic, evidence or argument (but please do not spend much time complaining about the writing/density/difficulty); 2) put the reading in dialogue with another reading or aspect of class discussion (e.g., “Jones said hookup culture was a result of women’s continuing oppression, and this idea is in direct contradiction to Smith’s point, that women engage in hookup culture because their career orientation means they don’t have time for romance”); or 3) apply the ideas in the reading to facts/a situation/an experience in your life/other reading/politics/civic life (e.g. “When Jones argued that child labor laws served to punish and stigmatize working-class families, I remembered working in my family’s restaurant growing up: my parents knew that other people thought that was a problem, even though they thought it taught me discipline and gratitude”). Essentially a good response works with a reading as if it is a live thing, wrestling with it, having an opinion about it, applying it to something else.
