Why does the American society now look down on committed relationships?
It seems like casual sex is the new fad these days. Those who want commitment are considered ';immature';, ironically. Basically because they're living in a ';fantasy'; world.Why does the American society now look down on committed relationships?
I think you are very wrong.
Casual sex is only perceived as the norm, mostly by young people. That is because they have bought into all the sex in the media. Sex sells right?
How can someone who wants to be in a committed relationship be looked down on as ';immature';. I would say that those people are the more mature. These are people who can stick to their beliefs without giving into what young people may think is ';cool';. Its not cool to just sleep around with people. I actually feel sorry for the ones that do, because they will never be able to experience what it is like to have sex with for the forst time with someone that you love. It is the best feeling in the world.Why does the American society now look down on committed relationships?
I dot think Americans feel that way. I think the very fact that gay marriage is such a hot button issue (whichever way you stand on the issue) mean that lots of people are considering how to address Committed Relationships. Casual sex went out in the 80's when AIDS became a concern for most of us.
I don't. I look down on discrimination. Calf prop 8 let's people vote on a discriminatory law. I am also looking down on religious theory being part of American law. Both need to be stopped before they kill again. Casual sex on the other hand has been known to work for me. That was pre AIDs.

How important do you think it is to respect the relationships and bonds that people share with each other?
You can do a 1 to 10 if you like, 10 being the highest.
I'd personally go for 10.How important do you think it is to respect the relationships and bonds that people share with each other?
Very important because that is what makes us function in society. We all have the need to belong and when we bond with the people we care about the most, it creates a sense of acceptance.

How has the relationships between parents and children changed over the last 50 years?
I would like some help with my Sociology work, cheers.How has the relationships between parents and children changed over the last 50 years?
Seems to me that parents do less parenting. Heck a kid is lucky to even have two parents. I would look up the stats on children being born out of wedlock, those in divorced families and those living with their bio parents with no half siblings.
More children are put in day care then back 50 years ago.
Parents are more self-centered now days.How has the relationships between parents and children changed over the last 50 years?
Hmmmm...I think parents these days want to be more involved with their children instead of the old ';Seen but not heard'; theory. It's good to listen to your children and make them feel a part of the family and that their opinions matter....but some parents nowdays go a little too far in trying to ';please'; their children instead of staying with limits and punishments. You can balance both ..it is possible.
Parents seem less involved in their children's lives. There is too much pressure nowadays for the mothers to go back to work and shove their kids off onto someone else to be raised, especially after either 6 weeks or after the child starts school.
Parents used to control their children. Today, children control their parents. As with any other topic, it doesn't apply to absolutely everyone... but most.
i know my son-i am 60-wants to know what i spend-he says i am spending his inheritance i am giving my assets to a food pantry

Why do romantic relationships trigger a relapse of clinical depression?
I suffer from major depressive disorder and I seem to do really well mentally when I am single, but as soon as I get into a romantic relationship, my depression comes back full force and my insecurities pop back up. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm trying to gain more insight into why this happens and what I can do to manage it.Why do romantic relationships trigger a relapse of clinical depression?
If a person was hurt and betrayed in his or her primary love/family relationships in childhood, the person learns that emotional closeness brings pain, and often when such a person tries as an adult to get close to other people, subconsciously the mind regresses to that earlier time and begins to re-experience and expect that pain. For a normal person, closeness feels good. For an abused person, closeness may bring depression.Why do romantic relationships trigger a relapse of clinical depression?
You are not confident that's why this happens to you. Just gain your confidence by doing things like looking your self in mirror. If you do not possess body than built it to gain more confidence and try avoiding clashes in romance.
Because romantic relationships carry with them high expectations and are absolutely no guarantee of anything.

What would be the best technique for determining the evolutionary relationships among several closely related ?
What would be the best technique for determining the evolutionary relationships among several closely related species, each of which still contains living members?
A)examining the fossil record
B)comparison of homologous structures
C)comparative embryology
D)comparative anatomy
E)DNA or RNA analysis
I think it's E.What would be the best technique for determining the evolutionary relationships among several closely related ?
The answer is B. Darwin did it himself by comparing a bat's wing to a person's arm, to find an evolutionary link. (A human arm to a bat's wing is comparing homologous structures)

How do I correct the patterns of being in unhealthy relationships with men?
It seems that I definitely have issues when it comes to dating.. I seem to attract unavailable men and then on top of that I put up with it. I'm a smart well rounded woman who has a great head on my shoulders but where do I dig to find out where my esteem issues come from because it's surely not on the surface. I want to correct this pattern because all I long for is a healthy loving relationship with an available man..How do I correct the patterns of being in unhealthy relationships with men?
I think the bigger question is... why are you attracted to unavailable men? You are choosing these guys for a reason. Although the relationships may hurt, there may be a part of you that is way more comfortable avoiding intimacy and that's why you're choosing them.
BTW- I have been struggling with this very issue for years. I now (finally) realize the fact my dad is an alcoholic contributed to my intimacy issues (among other things). Maybe you had to deal with something while growing up that has influenced your comfort level when dealing with intimacy and trust.
I think if you address why you're avoiding intimacy, you'll begin on a path towards finding a fulfilling, healthy, trusting relationship.How do I correct the patterns of being in unhealthy relationships with men?
You need to learn to be happy with yourself. You do that by learning to be by yourself for now. You might be trying to hard. I think the more you learn to be by yourself, the more attractive you become. Ask yourself why do you need to be in a relationship. Your self worth is not defined by the relationship you are end. Take a class or join a club and do something new other than worry being in a relationship. The more you feel better about yourself the more selective you will be about the guys you date. You will keep getting stepped on until you get the lesson. If the men you are attracted to are not available, you have enough experience to know that within five minutes of conversation. So quit putting yourself through the pain.
Good luck and Godspeed to ya!
You don't need to dig, you may find something else you don't like. Look at yourself and realize you deserve better. You have value. you are awesome. You deserve the best out there, and don't give up or give in. Make a list of what you are really looking for (yes I mean write it down) an don't give up/in till you find it!zits
