Abstract

In response to the rising number of juvenile offenders and the huge cost of traditional imprisonment, there is a growing number of boot camps in the United States. Though there is increased knowledge concerning the nature and ineffectiveness of boot camps, most parents refer their children to boot camps and become frustrated. This is because most boot camps do not address the root cause of the defiant behavior (Welsh et al 2014). Instead, boot camps create aggressive and punishing environments that offend most of the juveniles. Most juvenile develop the attitude that boot camps are facilities developed to punish their behavior and is not different from prison confinement. Several studies have revealed inc0reased recidivism for participant of boot camps with aggressive environment (Ostrowsky 2005).

Abstract

Lincoln on Leadership: Executive Strategies for Tough Times is a book authored by Donald Philips in the year 1992. In the preface, he expresses how he felt surprised at the beginning of the research into the styles of leadership of the man that majority would confess as the greatest leader of the United States; he realized that no any other writer had examined that field. As a matter of fact, nobody had authored a book regarding Lincoln and leadership. Surprisingly, even in the Lincoln library where exhaustive inventory of the 16th president’s work are kept, there were only three articles of Lincoln and leadership. The inspiration of Philips came from the descriptions of how the president visited his generals when they were on the battlefield.

Being physically different from other people is what makes us unique and interesting in nature. In some cases, we feel overwhelmed when requested to do things that are beyond our skills or capabilities. Others feel low when doing things that hardly challenge them. This is the feeling of not belonging or not being a part of a certain group. However, all this cannot be viewed in a negative perspective.

When a child is different from others, it means that he or she cannot receive or pass information in the normal senses, that is, not able to express thoughts, feelings and needs, or have a different way of processing information. In education programs, a special adaptation for such cases is so essential.
