CMY2603
ASSIGNMENT 1 SEMESTER 2 2023

, READ THE CASE STUDY BELOW AND ANSWER BOTH QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW.


The Thompson family faces socio-economic strain due to Mrs Thompson low paying job. She is a
single mother to her 12-year-old son, Michael, with his father working in another province and only
visiting during Christmas and the New Year holidays.

While the father does contribute some of his earnings to the family, his absence most of the time
leaves Mrs Thompson as the primary caregiver. The father also has a criminal record for theft. The
family lives in a neighbourhood with limited resources and high crime rates.

As the primary breadwinner, Ms. Thompson works long hours, leaving Michael unsupervised during
after-school hours. The lack of parental supervision and emotional support, along with limited
opportunities for growth, could potentially expose Michael to risk behaviour.

Additionally, Michael’s grandparents also live with the family. The grandfather tends to engage in
conflict between himself and the grandmother.


QUESTION 1


In your own words, supported with examples and in-text citations of reputable sources, identify and
explain four (4) family variables (as described in the prescribed book) that can expose Michael to the
risk of coming into conflict with the law. (15)


QUESTION 2

Analyse the four (4) broad categories of parenting styles and then select which type or types of
parenting style(s) to which Michael is most likely exposed. Explain how this type of parenting can
either directly or indirectly contribute to his misbehaviour. Justify and provide literature support for
your answer. (10)
