Discuss with each other why or why not? Must be 175 words and must include in-text citation, (Woodside, 2015). Anne, a one-year-old child, lives with her mother, Almeada, in a housing project in Chicago. Their home is a dirty, rat-infested, one-room apartment that offers little beyond protection from the weather. Almeada, 17 years old, works six days a week for a local clothing manufacturer for minimum wage. She spends day after day in a large, hot, noisy warehouse, sewing sleeves in dresses and shirts. Almeada feels lucky to have this job, since the plant downsized twice. Most of her friends who work do so in the fast-food industry or in local supermarkets in the area. This summer, Luis, a 10-year-old neighbor, watches baby Anne from 7:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. Luis takes Anne to the playground each day and watches her while he plays with his friends. When she needs a nap, he puts her down to sleep on the only grassy spot. He changes her once a day at noon and feeds her a bottle of watered juice, a bottle of watered milk, and cut-up hot dogs. The playground is located in a rough neighborhood and is the hangout for one of the many street gangs in the area. Almeada leaves the house at 7:30 a.m. and does not return until 6:00 p.m. During the hours that Luis is not watching Anne, she is alone in her bed in the apartment. Almeada stays in touch with Luis by cell to keep track of baby Anne. For her the phone is the first bill she pays. It is the key to her support system and care of baby Anne. Almeada knows that she needs help for herself and Anne. Before she moved from her old neighborhood, Almeada had been seeing a case manager, Barbara LaRosa. She plans to call Ms. LaRosa tomorrow from work and hopes Ms. LaRosa will be able to give her some ideas about where to go for help in this new part of the city. Almeada also visited a faith healer living near her parent's home. The healer, Ms. Morales, a curandera, combined prayers and an herbal treatment to calm Almeada and reduce her stress. Baby Anne cannot take care of herself. She is one of the many individuals who require human services just to have the necessities of life. Anne lacks adequate food, housing, and developmental opportunities. She is in danger because she does not receive appropriate supervision during the day. There is also some question as to whether Almeada can take care of herself properly. She is only 17, works long hours for little pay, and has the major responsibility of raising a child, although she is little more than a child herself. Human services recognizes problems such as Almeada's as problems in living. As part of this recognition, the focus is not on the past but rather on improving the present and changing the future. Doing so involves directing attention to the client, the environment, and the interaction between the two. Individuals grow and develop through the life cycle, encountering problems in living such as adolescent rebellion, parenthood, mid-life crises, caring for aging parents, and death and dying. Many difficulties in living arise in connection with families and communities; these may involve relating to children, spouses, and parents; maintaining progress in education; adapting to a new culture and language; sustaining performance at work; and assuming responsibility for the very young or the very old.
