  Criminal Justice in Divided...

  How a broken criminal justice system has fueled the crisis of American democracy, and how we can address both problems together.Criminal Justice in Divided America shows how police, courts, and prisons helped to break American democracy and how better approaches to public safety and criminal accountability can help to repair it. Engaging critically with concerns from both the left and the right, Sklansky lays out a clear and deeply researched agenda for reforming police departments, prosecutors' offices, criminal trials, and punishment. Sklansky seeks pragmatic solutions that take account of political realities: the lofty ideal of empowering "the people" or "the community" can mean little when members of the public or the community disagree. While efforts to "defund" the police have exacerbated political conflicts without addressing the underlying problem of how and when force should be used to protect public safety, reforms aimed at improving police accountability, restraining prosecutorial power, and expanding the role of juries can bring together warring parties who share a concern for justice.Ultimately, Sklansky argues, reform must be rooted in a strong commitment to pluralism―bridging political divides rather than worsening them, strengthening democracy, and securing the broad support that enables durable change.

  ADHD in School - Supportive...

  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most commonly diagnosed neurodevelopmental disorders in children. It affects approximately 5-10% of school-aged children worldwide and can significantly impact their academic performance and social interactions. ADHD is characterized by symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, which can vary greatly in their severity and presentation from one child to another. 
  In the classroom setting, ADHD can present a variety of challenges for both students and educators. Children with ADHD often struggle to stay focused on tasks, follow instructions, and maintain organizational systems. Their difficulty with impulse control can lead to frequent interruptions, inappropriate behaviors, and challenges in completing assignments. These behaviors are often misinterpreted as laziness, defiance, or a lack of intelligence, leading to frustration and misunderstanding for both the student and teacher. 
  It is important to understand that ADHD is not caused by a lack of discipline or effort. It is a neurobiological condition that affects the brain's ability to regulate attention, behavior, and emotions. Students with ADHD may have difficulty with executive functioning, which includes skills like planning, organization, time management, and self-regulation. These challenges can make traditional classroom settings particularly difficult, as many educational systems rely on structure, rigid schedules, and the ability to remain focused for extended periods.
