Question 1 of 4:
NOTE: it looks like a lot, but the is literally just placing an “x” in the applicable boxes. There are detailed instructions which makes this look like a very lengthy question; it is not. Simply fill out the chart below based on the following instructions and then answer the question below the chart:
This chart is one way sociologists measure social distance (NOT in the way that we have distanced due to COVID, but relative to our tolerance/acceptance of others in our social spaces).
Instructions for the chart: Type/indicate the name of the group (a racial group different than the one with which you primarily identify) in the blank above the table. Mark an X in each spot where disapproval is likely or has occurred based on the “levels” of relationship and then respond the the questions that follow.
Your Relationship with a Member of the white americans
Now, place an “X” or check mark in each box where you think there has been or would be any disapproval of the indicated level of relationship with a person in the group you listed above. For example, if you are LatinX and typed APPI in the blank as your group and you have no issues with friendship, dating, cohabiting or marrying a Latin X person, there would be NO Xs in your boxes. If your grandparents are okay with friendship but NOT with the other levels of relationship, then the box under grandparents for friendship would be blank and the others would have Xs. We are looking at generational differences in social distance in the family. You can use the chart format as it appears, or, just compose your own or make a list if there are formatting issues.
Place an X in any box if the person listed (you, your parents or your grandparents) would DISAPPROVE of connection with/to anyone in the racial or ethnic group you identified along the lines of the varied levels of relationship (close friend, date, living together or marriage)
I did the chart already*
Would anyone disapprove?
Close friend
Date
Live together
Marry
You
Your parents
Your grandparents
DON’T FORGET: Question accompanying the chart: Consider the functional, conflict-theorist, and feminist perspectives and select only ONE of those theories to discuss why there are or could be (if there were no differences for your family) differences in the generations.
Question 2 of 4:
Select ONE racial group and compare it with Indigenous Americans [American Indians] across the following aspects of family formation: marriage rates, divorce rates and remarriage/blended family.
Question 3 of 4:
LIST the different social classes in the United States as detailed in your textbook (just list them). Explain what Lareau meant by concerted cultivation vs. natural growth in terms of the class differences in the way parents view the task of raising children. Based on the reading as well as the media above, do you think that class really matters in terms of childrearing and do certain classes have advantages over others relative to life chances and other outcomes? briefly explain.
Question 4 of 4:
Take a look at the poverty threshold figures for 2023 (https://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty-guidelinesLinks to an external site.) and also keep the clips above in mind. Present a poverty threshold (provide an actual dollar figure in your post) that you think is more reasonable for a family of 4. After you present your figure, provide at least 3 points of justification for the income you indicated as the best figure for a poverty threshold. Also, consider the following report published by the U.S. Congressional Budget Office: https://www.cbo.gov/publication/55681#:~:text=By%20boosting%20the%20income%20of,number%20of%20people%20in%20povertyLinks to an external site.. While raising the minimum wage is a “good thing”, name and briefly discuss ONE reason based on the textbook and the report above why raising the minimum wage could have negative consequences for families. Of the two, which do you think would help families more – increasing the poverty line/threshold or raising the minimum wage?
