attempts to guide the underprivileged is commendable, but there's a fine line between helping and condescending

What makes a "champion of the family"? Could you be one? Could you? If you think so, Emma Harrison, the driving force behind working families in all parts of the program, would like to hear. If you measure in place so that it can choose to work with one of more than 100,000 "problem families" (a word of warning for potential candidates who have doubts about this sentence, or if its precise meaning connotations - Harrison is considered a significant achievement that convinced David Cameron to be used in place of "problem families") and to facilitate its passage through the type of production, regardless of the life of society need to heal broken. Through this society, a discourse that takes place in the databases is getting better - the circumstances of the population, their capabilities, their ability to participate. In the process, questions arise. Who are the best Who is better? What are upgraded to and at what price?

There are certain qualities that you need to be a champion. In short, at the direction of the WFE, it is the three C's: If you are not careful, capable and creative, then the system is probably not for you. But if you do not know if respect, not to mention three of these criteria, below, provides additional information to help you decide. You can, for example, the type of person who thinks: "I could sort all this in one time opportunity" (this person exist?). You could have the firm conviction that "actions speak louder than words" or want to say ". Naturally nosy" "Let's try this way and see what happens", which could even, curiously, is If this is your case , then you are encouraged to work not only with their families assigned to problems, but also a number of agencies and organizations to "help families deal to solve their problems", problems that include parenting issues , health, debt, addiction, dependence, lack of motivation, low self-esteem, lack of contacts and lack of opportunities. Suddenly faced with a list of topics as diverse and potentially debilitating, with a positive attitude and be a bit nosy Parker does not seem enough.

Others have chosen to put the buildings on the manifest WFE slightly different. The

Yorkshire Post

, for example, reported last week that middle-class family in Hull, one of the pilot project (Blackpool and Westminster are the other two) were invited to "take the family out of work." Vernon Coaker, the inner shadow minister described as "gadget", but the opinions in online forums ranging from support to skeptics, with the voices of dissent or questioning the effectiveness of the intervention or indignant resistance to the idea that most of the "lucky" to be cast as saviors of the minority.

But is it really being a denier? Is it okay to jump on every new idea and expose its flaws, theorize about possible failures before writing what began? Everyone is a volunteer for this or a similar system should be classified as one? For good or charged to cover a lack of consistency or substance of distrust of government policy is the "middle classes", since their actions, however well intentioned - and how the word is loaded - are immediately perceived as condescending or disoriented

Emma Harrison certainly
But it can be generally favorable, and even a strong note of caution. The speed with which it was the initiative of Harrison assigned to the class the scenario reveals a multitude of hypotheses, supported by the rhetoric that you can not do the work: first, the language of loss and of abandonment, deprivation and trap in all, professionalism and business objectives and functions.
