I recommend that a family with first baby, or very young mother, have mother and grandmother and some aunties live together in a unit for two weeks, getting the parent and child into breast feeding, talking getting a regular breast feeding and healthy meal recipes and system going. And then they can have a friendly helpful visitor who respects them coming twice a week at home. Or it would be good if after the two weeks, the mother goes to a hostel a bus ride away from home ideally, and spends the first six months with baby and other young mothers also, where they can have classes and make plans for when they return home. <br /><br />If possible they would be at a class for NCEA credits and baby nearby similar to the schools set up by Dr Susan Baragwanath that I would like to have heard lots about in the news, but didn't catch much at all.<br /><br />School opens doors for teenage mothers - 2004 <br />https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=3598581<br />and<br />https://discover.stqry.com/v/staff-and-student-creativity/s/11c473c2-711d-458a-a973-572adf962174<br />He Huarahi Tamariki: A Chance for Children<br /><i>He Huarahi Tamariki, (A Chance for Children, HHT), was founded by Dr Susan Baragwanath in 1995. HHT is a school for teenage parents from the greater Wellington area. The school provides a "second chance education" to students who are unable to complete their formal education due to pregnancy or the birth of a child.<br /><br />"Because we are poor and brown, they think we are stupid" said one of the school's first students. "Yes, they may, but only you can show them that you are not," replied Dr Baragwanath. They got the message....<br /><br />The school honours board records 30 degrees and 23 diplomas that recognise outstanding student success. There are now at least 23 TPUs (Teen Parent Units) throughout New Zealand, inspired by the HHT model.</i><br /><br />This phrase came up.

Not necessarily an academic one that would become an exploration from a humanities viewpoint. Talking and understanding of the real problems has been done but motivation for application of suggested remedies has not been pressing and implemented. As the participants have moved on, the ideals and findings have been shelved and perhaps lost. <br /><br />The middle-class with their eyes set on lifestyles that are individual, centred on style and materially rewarding, have moved on from past precepts as they have have also swept away attics or garages where their ancestors pushed their old trunks containing humanity talismans. These have become detritus in the constantly moving, future-oriented, technologically advanced, ordered minimalist culture that is current.<br />https://www.treehugger.com/cleaning-organizing/5-reasons-take-clutter-seriously.htmlgreywarblernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-77682208082645338342019-06-21T11:09:25.225+12:002019-06-21T11:09:25.225+12:00How would the Maori underclass look based on both ...How would the Maori underclass look based on both ancestries?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15607028751724602829noreply@blogger.com
