Jenny's parents were completely() when they saw the() changes in her.

Corryvale Farm

Corryvale Farm is in the west of England. Stephen and Jenny Blackler keep cows and chickens and sell milk and eggs. But most of their money comes from Jenny's sheep.

She has 50 sheep and each one has enough wool for six sweaters. Every six months, Stephen cuts this wool off the sheep so they won't get too warm. Five years ago, Jenny made some sweaters with the wool and tried to sell them at country markets. But it was summer and the weather was hot so people didn't want to buy sweaters. She then made some socks. Everybody loved them because they were cheap, strong and easy to wash.

That's how Jenny's business started. At first she made the socks at home, but soon she had thousands of customers so she bad to send the wool to a factory, where all the socks are now made on machines. There are six colours, five sizes for all ages, and different socks for walkers, sportsmen and skiers. Jenny is busiest at Christmas because Corryvale socks are a favourite present. On the walls of Jenny's office, there are lots of letters from happy customers all over the world.

Jenny only gets wool from her sheep once a year.

their ownscreen use. “Tech is designed to really suck on you in, ” says Jenny Radesky in her study play, "and digital products are there to promote maximal engagement. It makes it hard to disengage,and leads to a lot of bleed-over into the family routine. ”

Radesky has studied the use of mobile phones and tablets at mealtimes by giving mother-child pairsa food-testing exercise. She found that mothers who sued devices during the exercise started 20percent fewer verbal and 39 percent fewer nonverbal interactions with their children. During aseparate observation, she saw that phones became a source of tension in the family. Parents wouldbe looking at their emails while the children would be making excited bids for their attention. Infants are wired to look at parents’ faces to try to understand their world, and if those faces areblank and unresponsive—as they often are when absorbed in a device－it can be extremely7disconcerting foe the children. Radesky cites the “still face experiment ” devised by developmentalpsychologist Ed Tronick in the 1970s.

In it, a mother is asked to interact with her child in a normalway before putting on a blank expression and not giving them any visual social feedback; The childbecomes increasingly distressed as she tr ies to capture her mother ’s attention. "Parents don&39;t have tobe exquisitely parents at all times, but there needs to be a balance and parents need to be responsiveand sensitive to a child ’s verbal or nonverbal expressions of an emotional need," says Rade sky. On the other hand, Tronick himself is concerned that the worries about kids&39; use of screens are bornout of an “oppressive ideology that demands that parents should always be interacting children: “It’s based on a somewhat fantasized, very white, very upper-middle-class ideology thatsays if you’re failing to expose your child to 30,000 words you are neglecting them.”

Tronickbelieves that just because a child isn ’t learning from the screen doesn ’t mean there －particularly if it gives parents time to have a shower, do housework or simply have a break fromtheir child. Parents, he says, can get a lot out of using their devices to speak to a friend or get somework out of the way. This can make them feel happier, which lets then be more available to theirchild the rest of the time.

Soldiers returning home from World War II were usually eager to go on with their lives. For most, that meant starting a family. Between 1946 and 1960, 63 million babies were born in the United States, up 22 million from the fifteen-year period before that. this big jump in the birth rate came to be known as the baby boom (婴儿潮). Before the war, American children were raised very strictly. They were often told to be "seen and not heard." After the war, however, young parents raised their children according to different ideas. Dr. Benjamin Spock's Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care, published in 1946, emphasized flexibility (灵活性) in raising children. Spock encouraged parents to listen to their children and respond to their wishes. New parents quickly made Dr. Spock's book the best-selling book in US history. By 1952, sales had reached 4 million copies per year for the next eighteen years. Critics (批评家) who believed that the old ways of raising children were best accused Spock of being too permissive. They thought his ideas would spoil children.

But Spock opposed strict discipline because he thought there were was "no such thing as a bad boy." By this he meant that, although a child's behavior. may be bad, the child is not. Millions of baby-boom parents were influenced by Spock's advice, which brought a revolution in the way children were raised.
