Growing up my search of autonomy looked a little different than a lot of kids my age. I was not very supervised growing up so learning independence came early. I remember getting my first job at fifteen and learning how to provide for my sisters at that age. There was a lot of pressure put on me at an early age. For me, gaining independence looked more like pulling away from care giving as we all got older. I had to learn to find an identity within myself that was not connected to other people. That was challenging for me because I carried to role of being the rescuer for so long. But as I got older and started to discover myself apart from that I found so much more freedom and peace. As for my kids I dont want them to have to feel like they have the same role I did. I want to give them the chance to be kids and not have to worry. I want to be around more for them and provide better for them. I think life events with parents can go one of two ways. either the child follows their foot steps or wants to be different. and in my case I want to be a different kind of parent.

Explain what the difference is between these two models of the welfare state. What did the New Deal and its signature legislative achievements (think: the Social Security Act of 1935, the various work relief programs) represent in terms of how America’s approach to social welfare issues and policy was changing?
