Answer to Question 1

The quality of home care could include the amount of time parents spend actively involved with their children, the kinds of activities parents do with their children, the attitude about childcare that parents display to their children, the amount of affection parents give to their children, and the amount of physical and intellectual stimulation parents provide their children.

Answer to Question 2

Basic or pure sociology is directed toward the development of theory and research, which attempt to answer basic questions about human social groups without making changes in these groups. Applied sociology involves the practical application of sociological knowledge to solve problems and shape social policy.
