Forget Prince Charming
June Callwood
I don’t believe for a moment that a perfect mate exists and if such a freak of nature did occur that person would not be a heavenly match for me because I am imperfect and we would clash. But I have three granddaughters of marriageable age and I frequently advise them on such matters as how to run their lives and what they should require of a mate.
The primary consideration, I tell them, is that they cannot expect perfection. No human relationship is friction-free. Even siblings who are fond of one another have clashes, and they come from the same gene pool. There is no possibility that two adults from different backgrounds will agree on everything, and discord over trivia is not evidence of a mismatch.
The notion of a perfect mate exists because of the temporary insanity that accompanies courtship, when people experience what Freud called “the oceanic feeling.” Self-protective edges disappear in a wash of uncritical attentiveness. The two in love become one sensate being, their emotions so attuned to one another that the existential loneliness of the human condition is masked. People in the first fiery intensity of romantic attachment bring out the sweetness in one another and are all the better for it.
Amazingly, the pounding heart is not always an idiot; some inner wisdom or instinct seems to guide many people to the right choice, and one they might not have made cognitively. Besides, passionate physical attraction is nature’s plan for the species and without it relationships are cold gruel. The major flaw in ecstatic beginnings, however, is the expectation they arouse that, lifelong, the partnership will be effortless. No fundamental problems are ever resolved by two people moving in together; the best hope is that a stable relationship will enable each person to work on them.
All long-term couplings survive on a mutual ability to compromise, which is the same glue that holds our peculiar country together. Some matters are not negotiable, of course; violence and betrayal are definitely deal-breakers. But happily married people make concessions to one another’s peculiarities all the time, and the exchange rarely is 50-50. The totality has to feel fair to both, but real life is far too complex for a balance scale to be relevant.
A wise Canadian child psychologist, the late Dr. William Blatz, was asked the secret of his serene marriage. He replied, “I make the dressing and she makes the salad.” A dressing is a lot quicker to make than a salad, but people got the picture. The wedlock was a collaboration effort.
It may be significant that our granddaughters have scattered beyond the immediate reach of my wise counsel on the subject of choosing a mate. One is in India, either near the Ganges or Thailand doing something for The New York Times. No matter. We stay in contact through e-mail and I proffer endless help in what I take to be their pursuit of love and fulfillment, which may be synonymous states.
What I have been saying to them since they were so small I could hold them on my lap is that successful mating has little to do with finding Prince Charming, who in my experience frequently is a narcisstic dope. Romantic novelists have the ideal all wrong, I explain. The first quality they should seek in their partner is integrity. Someone who cheats on an expense account or can’t admit fault will be dishonest in a myriad of other ways as well. For the long haul, they want a truth speaker.
Punctuality is an important clue to character, I continue. Chronic tardiness indicates to me a lack of respect for the waiting person that goes to the heart of consideration for others. I also insist on compassion, which rests on the fine bedrock of empathy. A helpful clue to this attribute can be found in the way the person behaves around small children. Anyone who stops to admire a baby probably had good parenting and will hang in with loyalty and kindness through the adversities that most certainly lie ahead.
I also stress humour, by which I don’t mean joke telling, which can also be an indication of the need for attention and a paucity of anything interesting to say. However humour that springs from awareness of life’s absurdities is the hallmark of a humane outlook. The ability to put matters in perspective and a knack for leavening bad times with a comical observation make life infinitely more bearable. My husband had something genuinely funny to say while we were burying our son, and it helped a great deal.
Come to think of it, my prescription for informed mate choosing seems to be a description of my own mate. We’ve been married almost fifty-seven years and so far it is working out all right, so what can I say. I’ll keep you Posted (little joke of my own there).
* In the 1950s, June Callwood began publishing her essays in established Canadian magazines. Her books, including Love, Fear, Hate and Anger (1964) and Portrait of Canada (1981), explore a variety of subjects, frequently social activism. She was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1986. “Forget Prince Charming” appeared in the National Post in 2000 following an invitation to Canadian writers to describe their “perfect mate.” (Born Chatham, Ontario 1924)
Multiple Choice
The Perfect Mate is called a freak of nature by the author in the essay because:
That person would be a heavenly match.
The writer would be too imperfect to deserve the perfect mate.
Such a person could not possibly be in existence.
The author and the perfect mate would clash in a duel.
What is meant by “the oceanic feeling”?
“The oceanic feeling” is when:
The two persons in love shrink into one person and loneliness disappears.
The two persons in love become one, understanding each other’s emotions as they become so trusting towards each other that they lose all boundaries.
The two persons in love become so uncritical and inattentive towards each other that they need no protective edges.
The two in love become one as their emotions become attuned until all loneliness disappears due to their attentiveness towards each other.
Passionate physical attraction is important because:
It is nature’s plan for humans and without it relationships would be cold.
It is nature’s plan for humans and without it relationships would not be cold gruel.
It is not nature’s plan for humans and without it relationships would be cold.
It is nature’s plan for the species and with it relationships are cold gruel.
The problem with “ecstatic beginnings” in relationships is:
The expectation that work will be needed throughout the partnership.
The expectation that the partnership will not be effortless.
The expectation that work will arouse lifelong effortlessness.
The expectation that the partnership will be effortless and needing little work.
According to the author, a couple’s decision to move in together:
Solves all fundamental problems and offers the best hope that there will be a stable relationship each person can work on.
Solves no fundamental problems and the best hope is that there will be a stable relationship each person can work on.
Solves little fundamental problems and the best hope is that there will be a stable relationship each person can work on.
Solves many fundamental problems and offers the best hope that there will be a stable relationship each person can work on.
Choose the statement that best expresses the author’s beliefs on compromising in relationships.
Compromising or making concessions in a relationship is important to the survival of the country due to societies needing couplings to survive.
All long term couplings are like countries, needing peculiar glue to hold them together, rather than the ability to compromise or making concessions.
All relationships survive on the ability to compromise and the exchange of making these concessions is often 50-50.
None of the above.
The statement made by Canadian child psychologist Dr. William Blatz, “I make the dressing and she makes the salad” when asked about the secrets of his serene marriage means:
Even though he did less work, the act of collaboration was what was important to his marriage being successful.
Even though making the dressing was quicker than making the salad, marriage was about doing chores and being unfair.
Even though he did less work, his wife enjoyed making the salad and so people got the picture.
Even though making the dressing was quicker, the act of collaboration was not what the effort was about.
The author states that the first thing her granddaughters should search for in their partners is integrity because:
They did not want Prince Charming who they’d soon discover is just a narcissistic dope but they wanted someone who cheats on an expense account.
They did not want someone who cheats on an expense account but could admit fault in a myriad of other ways as well.
They did not want someone who cheats on an expense account or can’t admit fault as they’d be dishonest in other ways as well.
They did not want Prince Charming who was probably just a narcissist, they wanted someone who cheats on an expense account and who can’t admit fault and will be dishonest in a myriad of other ways as well.
Compassion is important because:
It rests on fine bedrock and indicates a lack of respect.
It rests on the fine bedrock of sympathy and empathy.
It rests on empathy which is foundational.
It insists on fine sympathetic bedrock
Humour is considered important to the author because:
It does not mean joke telling which can be an indication of the need for attention and a paucity of anything interesting to say.
It does not mean joke telling but springs from a lack of awareness of life’s absurdities.
It does not mean joke telling but springs from not having humane outlook, and having the ability to put matters in perspective.
It does not mean joke telling which can be an indication of the need for attention, but is the ability to put matters in perspective.

Erik Erikson
In addition to the material provided in the textbook, students will be responsible to extend their research about this person’s background and contributions to early childhood education.
Students should situate this person in space and time and analyze the social and political issues during those days (you can find a useful timeline on page 37).
Since this is an online course, your research paper should be self-explanatory, explicit, and clear enough to contain the most relevant information and analysis of this person’s influence in early childhood.
Please review the rubric criteria
(Links to an external site.)
that will be used in grading this assignment.

Your essay must be 4-6 pages (not including title page and reference list) and adhere to APA formatting guidelines (Times New Roman, 12-point font, 1 inch margins, title page, reference list, and in-text citations). You must include 3 terms from the text and and at two additional outside sources. Cite your sources appropriately using citations. When you cite your term, please bold it, define it, and then apply it. For example, “culture is defined as ….(Fraleigh, Tuman, & Adams, 2017, p. 89). In America, culture is unique because…”
Title Page: Must be formatted according to APA guidelines.
Introduction: Give me an introduction to your paper that makes sense. You can talk about systemic racism, hidden acts of discrimination, white privilege, or implicit bias. You can even tell a personal story about a time you witnessed or experienced racism. You can share a story from someone else (a friend, relative, parent, or neighbor) about a time they experienced something you want to share. You can even talk about a TV show or social media interaction that shocked or angered you. Introduction should be at least 2 paragraphs.
Transition into your topic: You should bridge from your introduction into your topic. Reveal your topic. Is it red lining? Voter suppression? You need to tell us a little background information. What IS red lining? What IS voter suppression? Be sure to tell us how your topic qualifies as a form of racism and why it is harmful/hurtful/destructive/oppressive/etc. This would be a great place to cite one of your external sources. This section should be at least 3-4 paragraphs.
Analysis of Oppression: How does communication contribute to this problem? Do a little research on your topic. How did this topic begin? For example, if you are talking about voter suppression, give us a very brief history lesson and tell us how communication formed policies and then changed perceptions of voting. Do you know that people STILL deny voter suppression happens, even though it has been proven? Why? What acts of communication create this misunderstanding? This would be a great place to cite an external source AND your textbook. This section should be at least 5 paragraphs.
Recommendations: How can “we” change our communication to stop these racist acts, beliefs, and/or behaviors? Who should change? What should they do instead? Why will this help? This might be a good place to cite the text and/or an external source. This section should be at least 3 paragraphs.
Reference List: Your reference list should have at least 3 sources (your text and the two additional sources you find).
To get full credit, your essay must:
1. Include a title page, at least 3 citations from the book, 2 external citations, and a reference list. Everything should be formatted to APA guidelines.
2. Write your essay from a place of learning and inquiry. What I mean by this–it is not helpful to say “I don’t believe racism is a problem.” We know it is a problem; the question is, what part of the problem would you like to discuss? I am not asking you to adhere to certain political beliefs, I am asking you to interrogate how communication systems create systems of oppression towards marginalized groups.
3. Essay must be 4-6 pages, not counting the title page or reference list. With these two documents, the final essay will be 6-8. Save as a PDF and upload to Canvas.

Peer response:
There are many benefits to a contractual agreement. Contract agreements help aid business functions, improve functional efficiency, enforces and improves compliance. The contract will dictate the terms, conditions and procedures. An efficient contract will simplify the organization functions, helping structure the expectations for the business. Having a contract can also help optimize revenue and minimize cost. “Reduce the risk of a dispute regarding payments, responsibilities, and timeframes that the service to be performed under the contract,” (Mollaei, n.d)
Businesses should consider contractual agreements as it will help protect their organization as it will legally bind the parties. The contracts essentially have two components, agreement and consideration. ” For an agreement to be binding, it must have some form of consideration.” (Mollaei, n.d.)

How a Bill Becomes a Law may appear to be a fairly straightforward and not all that complex a process if you simply review a typical diagram provided in most textbooks. Despite this straightforward process, many political commentators argue that gridlock – or the inability of Congress to pass meaningful and necessary legislation – dominates the current congressional era. What are the causes and consequences of congressional gridlock?
Activity:
(1) Develop a brief diagram or bullet list for the House of Representatives and one for the Senate showing how a bill may become a law, and
(2) In brief paragraphs, identify and explain the causes for congressional gridlock (for example, political polarization, gerrymandering, etc.). What type of reform would you propose to the legislative process to break the gridlock?

Assignment: Informative Presentation

Chapter 12 – Organizing your Presentation
Chapter 13 – Delivery (pgs. 340-355)
Chapter 14 – Informative Presentations
Submission: See Recording Instructions below
An informative speaker shares information with others to enhance their knowledge or understanding of a particular topic. Most adult audiences enjoy information that is relevant to their own lives and needs.
This assignment will give you the opportunity to gain experience speaking extemporaneously, to narrow a topic and organize content using a pattern of organization, and to orally cite sources of supporting material.
Select a topic which allows you to inform your audience of a significant aspect of a culture that is different than your own. Possible topics include social customs, family traditions, holidays, clothing, food, religious traditions, and sporting activities. Refer to Chapter 7 of your text as a guide.
Research your topic. Be imaginative in choosing content for your speech. It is not enough to simply summarize basic information from the Internet about a country or culture. Narrow the topic by selecting one specific aspect on which to focus your ideas.

Organize the main points of your speech using an informative pattern of organization. Your speech should give your audience a deeper understanding of your topic, but should not be designed to affect your audience’s beliefs, attitudes, or behavior.

Provide adequate support for each main point by citing at least three credible sources in the speech. Incorporate examples, narratives, testimonial evidence, statistics, analogies, explanations, and/or definitions where appropriate. Sources must be cited orally in the speech. If you have had direct contact with a different culture, you should supplement your research with your personal experience.
Create an introduction and conclusion.

Once you have thought through each part of the speech (introduction, body, & conclusion), create a rough draft outline of the speech.

Create speaking notes to use during your delivery. Use key words and phrases rather than complete sentences. Your notes should serve only as a memory aid and should not be a word-for-word manuscript of your speech.

Practice your presentation before videoing yourself so that you can deliver the information with only occasional glances at your notes.

Consider asking friends or family members to view your presentation before submitting.
