Discussion 2: Lost Childhoods Book Review Collaboration
Instructions
To further humanize the experiences of children who experience various forms of neglect and abuse, you will now spend time exploring research on individuals’ and families’ narratives surrounding childhood poverty, trauma, and juvenile delinquency. You also will consider how these experiences are linked to larger social problems and social welfare policies. As you gain new insight into these issues, this discussion will allow you to collaborate with your peers and engage in a conversation about the book Lost Childhoods: Poverty, Trauma, and Violent Crime in the Post-Welfare Era (attached)
First, you will want to search for this book’s full-text pdf version on FSCJ’s library home page. Next, you will read the Introduction and Conclusion sections of the book to get more background information on both the theoretical and methodological framework applied in the research conducted for this book and the key policy implications of the research findings. You will then read and reflect on your assigned chapters (see Chapter assignments below).
My last name begins with the G so I need to cover Chapters 1–2.
In your initial discussion post, specify which chapters you are focusing on and address the following points:
Summarize and discuss the main findings of your assigned chapters.
Depending on the topics highlighted in your chapters, you will explain and analyze how social welfare reform, diverse family structures, juvenile delinquency, legal and judicial responses, poverty, addiction, homelessness, and/or violence can impact children throughout their life.
Identify key policy implications of this research that stood out to you and explain why.
Finally, create a discussion question and place it at the end of your initial post. This discussion question can be general (e.g., a basic question about an issue that stood out to you in the book). Alternatively, you can ask a question that connects the topics in the book to current events or something else you have read about in this course or another human services-related course.
Your initial posting should be at least four paragraphs and include the use of concepts and ideas in your textbook related to the discussion questions.
Submission
After you have posted your initial post, read, and respond to two or more of your classmates’ posts with a two-paragraph response. To fully grasp the findings in this book, if possible, it will be helpful if you respond to students who addressed different chapters than your own. For example, if you reported on Chapters 1–2, you should select a student, who reported on Chapters 3–4, and then select another student who reported on Chapters 5–6. However, you may respond to students who covered the same chapters as you as well if there is a limited number of posts associated with other chapters. It also will be useful to highlight additional resources in your response posts to add something new to the conversation (using credible academic sources of information).
Once all discussion posts are submitted, students will receive feedback in the comments section in Canvas. The feedback will be based on the grading rubric for this assignment. Note: You will not see your classmates’ posts until you post to the discussion.

Contemporary Challenges in Your Field
Each of the different fields of study is heavily influenced by theories and theorists that you have been learning about throughout your courses. You have learned about various theories of leadership such as transformational or transactional leadership, and a few of the impactful psychological theorists such as Erikson and Freud.

The case review will be written using the format in the picture posted below and from the perspective of a human services worker or case worker. It can be approached as a family unit, or as one of the adults in the case is your client.

At this point you have read chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and now preparing for chapters 6 and 7. The focus is on the samples for your study. How will you conduct the sample collection. Review all of the chapters with a focus on Chapter 7 for to help in responding to this assignment to help you understand the importance of sampling and the ethical responsibly in sampling. Sampling will allow you to take a small group of the population you will study and make observations and determinations based on that small group. Using your study, respond to the following:
What is your study?
What is your research question?
What is your study design?
What is the sample population?
What is the type of sampling you will conduct (know the terminology)
What are the sampling errors?
