Answer to Question 1

 Their vision produced a period known as the Enlightenment, which stressed a humanistic view of life, freedom, family, reason, and law.
 The ideal person was sympathetic to others and receptive to new ideas. These new beliefs influenced both the structure and lifestyle of the family.
 The father's authority was tempered, discipline in the home became more relaxed, and the expression of love and affection became more commonplace among family members.
 Upper- and middle-class families began to devote attention to childrearing, and the status of children was advanced.
 As a result of these changes, in the nineteenth century children began to emerge as a readily distinguishable group with independent needs and interests.
 Parents often took greater interest in their upbringing.
 Public outcries led to a decrease in excessive physical discipline. Restrictions were placed on the use of the whip, and in some schools, the imposition of academic assignments or the loss of privileges replaced corporal punishment.
 Despite such reforms, many children still led harsh lives. Girls were still undereducated, punishment was still primarily physical, and schools continued to mistreat children.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
