Occupations That Remain True

One occupation that has remained true over time has been the need to care for children and family members. Some adaptations are made over the lifespan of being a caregiver in the sense that each individual has different needs and personalities along with other barriers. An example would include the way my grandmother raised my mother was a little different than how my mother raised me. As a child my mother could ride her bike all the way to town (8miles) without any supervision because she knew the odds of kidnapping were slim, but as I was growing up that did not remain the same. My mother had to protect me more because kidnapping was more prevalent, so I was not allowed to go off anywhere alone. So the role of a mother has remained the same over the lifespan because they provide love, nurturing, and protection for their youth even though some adaptations and barriers change the way they carry out their occupation.
