Abstract
In this article the writer discusses that the single ongoing problem in the dual career marriage is the lack of an egalitarian approach. The writer notes that while retired husbands tend to help more with household tasks, the wife continues to bear the responsibility for them. In addition, the writer points out that economic pressures will be uneven for the spouses. The writer discusses that men are more likely than their spouses to have earned a private pension benefit and have social security benefits.

From the Paper
"What pressures on a dual-career couple might lessen after their retirement? Many patterns observed at earlier stages in the dual-career marriage will continue after retirement. One pressure that will not be alleviated for the woman after retirement is her husband's refusal to share in tasks. Since his socialization prevented his participation to this point, he will continue to avoid `women's work'. On the other hand, his presence in itself may create pressure because of additional work. What most clearly distinguishes the retirement years from the previous years is not so much the absence of work as the absence of children."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that the issue of concern with regard to dual relationships is exploitation, because of the potential conflicts that can disrupt the professional world. For example, if a psychologist were to have a patient that he or she also socialized with, the counselor could become so emotionally involved in the other person's life that the ability to actually assist the person would be inhibited. The writer discusses that the issue of exploitation itself surfaces because the psychologist has placed him or her self in a situation in which he or she becomes vulnerable to questions of moral and ethical practices as the dual relationship is exposed, thereby destroying the career of the psychologist.

From the Paper
"Gottlieb defines a dual relationship as any relationship that exists within the professional world and then continues into the personal world of the individual (sec. 1). Dual relationships, according to Gottlieb can also be considered "multiple relationships", in which a professional individual may be another person's counselor, as well as a lover, spouse, family member or friend. Because professionals primarily understand their roles as professionals, as well as their roles outside of business, duality in itself is not the issue of concern."

Abstract
In this article, the writer looks at dual relationships in connection with professionals involved in counseling. The writer explains that such dual relationships refer to the fact that the therapist has a professional relationship with a client but that if the boundaries are exceeded, he or she may also have a personal relationship with the client.

From the Paper
"The role of a professional psychologist, psychotherapist, or counselor brings that person into close contact with his or her clients in an intimate relationship that must have boundaries in order for the professional to provide proper counseling to the client. Professional organizations for these professionals often create and implement professional codes of conduct to set the necessary boundaries and to give guidance to the professionals on a variety of issues. One such issue is known as dual relationships, referring to ..."

Abstract
The paper is a briefing note in which the contentious issue of dual-citizenship within the Canadian context is raised. The paper looks at the background of the current controversy as well as the probable response of the government to call for a re-examination of who should be called Canadian and who should not be given that designation. In particular, the paper argues for the taxing of dual citizens living abroad.

From the Paper
"Canadian Citizenship Background: 1. Canada is a nation of immigrants and most of the nation's population comes from somewhere else or are the descendants of immigrants 2. However, a growing number of Canadians born abroad - now about 560,000 - have chosen to retain their former citizenship 3.

Abstract
This paper discusses how counselors and therapists should avoid establishing or allowing the establishment of dual relationships within the context of their professional capacity.

Abstract
The writer explores the differences and the similarities between single and dual parent homes and uses three sources to identify each category. The emotional, social and developmental characteristics of children from each type of home is analyzed.

From the Paper
"In today's world there are as many children living in homes of single parents as there are children living in homes with two parents. It has become so commonplace that it is not unusual to hear questions such as "Does your dad live with you?" or "Are your parents divorced?" as a normal part of daily conversation. There have been numerous studies done on the effects of being raised in a single parent home and being raised in a dual parent home. Many differences between the two settings have been discovered and many similarities have also been noted. The one thing experts agree on is that they are not one and the same."

In this article, the writer examines media and political issues surrounding same-sex marriages. The writer discusses President Bush's belief that same sex marriages would be harmful to society. The writer examines President Bush's support for a Constitutional Amendment banning same sex marriage. The writer also discusses the response of the media in this regard.

In making the endorsement, Bush stated that the union of a man and a woman is the most enduring human institution honored and encouraged in all cultures and by every religious faith.

Abstract
This paper is an argumentative essay promoting the legalization of same-sex marriages. The author focuses on the legal aspects of same sex marriages arguing for the legal rights such as insurance and parental status that need to be enforced.

From the Paper
"The proposed legalization of same-sex marriages is one of the most significant, yet controversial issues facing America today. Same-sex marriages, also known as Civil Unions, should be legalized in every state in the United States. Right now, in the United States, same-sex couples do not receive the same benefits and legal rights that married couples take for granted. These benefits include cheaper health insurance rates, life insurance benefits, funeral leave of absence from work, legal parental status with a partner's child, and significant tax reductions."
