For the third time in the past 5 minutes, Jeremy’s fourth-grade teacher has had to tell him to sit in his seat and keep his hands to himself. It is as if Jeremy’s feet are attached to springs. He doesn’t walk; he bounces. He doesn’t sit; he squirms. It’s not just the motor activity that sets him apart from the rest of the class: Jeremy also has a motor mouth. He talks incessantly. He can’t resist sharing his ideas with the class, whether they are welcomed or not. As soon as he thinks about them, regardless of whether the time is right, Jeremy blurts out answers, disrupts the classroom, and adds considerable stress to his teacher’s already stressful job.

   Jeremy is almost the polar opposite of his classmate Leonard. For Leonard, Jeremy’s antics just fade into the background of other classroom stuff. Unlike Jeremy, Leonard is very quiet and rarely participates in classroom discussions, unless the discussions are about something that really interests him. Leonard spends most of his time staring out the window or off into space. The word daydreamer seems to fit Leonard perfectly.

   Leonard always seems to be at least one step behind everyone else. Leonard is rarely on task; he drifts off in the middle of assignments; often he has to be reminded to return toe arth. Leonard is doing poorly academically. He just doesn’t seem to tune in to whatever channel the rest of the class is on. Initially, the teacher thought that Leonard was a slow learner, until the class began to discuss different computer programs. The teacher was shocked at Leonard’s sophisticated knowledge base and expertise in the area. That was when his teacher began to think that there was something else getting in the way of Leonard’s academic success.

   In this case study, Jeremy and Leonard share more than the same classroom and same teacher. As incredible as it might seem, they both probably share variations of the same disorder: attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). How can two children who seem so different fall into the same diagnostic category?This is a question that has plagued theorists for the past 100 years. Although ADHD is among one of the most prevalent disorders in childhood, it continues to challenge professionals. It has been a topic for considerable discussion and controversy, especially regarding the over prescription of stimulant medications (Diller,1996).

In a 100 words or more:

Provide a discussion of the co-occurring clusters for childhood and adolescence symptoms and features.

Although the issue of death is still not comfortably thought about and discussed by most individuals,...

Although the issue of death is still not comfortably thought about and discussed by most individuals, our lives are affected dramatically by the death of family members, close friends, and co-workers.  

Members in my classes have lost persons close to them during the class experience. There have also been those who were grieving the impending death of a terminally ill family member or close friend and even themselves. There are those who grieved a death by suicide or homicide.

Talking about death to someone with a terminal illness is very difficult: yet, it can be therapeutic and meaningful to the dying person to share life experiences and the fear or readiness for death. Such disclosures can be comforting for the ill person and, for the survivor, it can provide meaningful reminiscence as well as serve as a reminder to prepare for their own ultimate transition.

Cultural conceptions of death and dying vary; so, it is of interest for us to learn more about the meaning of life and death and customs and beliefs associated with D&D from your cultural perspectives. Your task, therefore, is to write a brief essay incorporating the following aspects:  

Present your personal cultural conception of dying and death. Be certain to give ethnic background, any diversity issue that would help us become more knowledgeable about different perspectives and practices.

Describe family customs to comfort/care for those with impending death.

What insight does your spiritual system give regarding death. Is there a belief in afterlife?
