Parenting Groups in USA

Parenting Groups in USA are a good Idea to avoid to loose the children and the pains which are connected with it. In Germany we have groups for single mothers founded by mothers self or by govermental youth welfare. They have good offers but not similar like parental groups which offers a wide area of different education help via online. Parental groups offer courses to educate the mothers about food, health, toys,security in swimming pools, to manage their children in different ways, they presentate also videos or connect the mothers so they have the possibilities for communication.
Interesting is that not only persons like padagogic or pschologists can make foundrising such a group also parents or single mothers can found a parenting group together with schools or kindergarden. There are different ways to get nonprofit moneys, that means all money they get from affiliate programs or from supporters and companies goes stright away to the groups or school or kindergarden.
Many opportunities of parenting groups and the advantage is that you can work independet, reasonable and conscious for your children in the most important years of kindergarden and schools, bcause the most problems, especially for single mothers, are in that times and the danger to loose the children also. Single mothers have to beare a lot of prejudice and to found a parenting group is a chance to fight. The situation and society structure with its thinking is a reality and often we have to work with this reality. we can cry, we can struggle and we can fight, the way how we do it perhaps can change the situation.

children welfare in Cuba

As good as the laws acoording to the children welfare are as much the laws differ to the practise. In Germany and in USA as well you can hear voices of critic in point of implementing the law to children welfare.However also in Cuba I could read a lot of critic but I was surprised about the positive report from Unicef. But at first I will write the few statements of children life.
In the Constitution of the Republic of Cuba their family, motherhood and marriage are under the protection of the state. Only marriages authorizid by officials having legal capacity to effect them are valid. Civil marriage is gratiutous and shall be recognized by the law.
The married woman enjoys the full advantages of equal civil capacity, with no necessity for marital permission or authoization in oder to manage property, freely to engage in trade, to enter industry or a profession, to an art, to hold office, and to dispose of the product of her work.
Allowances for support in favour of the woman and the children shall enjoy preference with respect to all other obligations and this preference may not be derogated by any condition of unatachability of property, salary, pension or economic investment of any kind whatever.

Parents are obliged to support ,tend, educate and instruct their children and the latter to respect and assist their parents.(In Germany we don´t have a clause for children to assist their parents with respect)The law shall the fulfillment of these duties with guarantees and adequate penalties.
Children born out of wedlock to a person who at the time of conception may have been able to contract marriage, have the same rights and duties as are stipulated in the preceding paragraph wedlock. except for what the law prescribes in regard to inheritance. The law shall regulate the investigation of paternity.

RCW Representing Children Worldwide writes that some form of a child protective legal process exists in Cuba but is seems unclearly exactly what the child protective entails.Further they mentioned the U:N: Committee on the Rights of the Child with the notice that the views of children in family and social life are insufficient. They also mentioned the very famous case of Elian Gonzalez II who was allowed to take back his daughter to Cuba.You can read: In Controversial Elian Gonzalez II Case, Cuban Father Should be allowed to take his Daughter Back to Cuba. Written by Mike McCormick and Glenn Sacks.
