Socioeconomic Status Study

Famous quotes containing the words status and/or study:

    “What is clear is that Christianity directed increased attention to childhood. For the first time in history it seemed important to decide what the moral status of children was. In the midst of this sometimes excessive concern, a new sympathy for children was promoted. Sometimes this meant criticizing adults. . . . So far as parents were put on the defensive in this way, the beginning of the Christian era marks a revolution in the child’s status.”
    —C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    “Gonna lay down my burden
    down by the riverside,
    to study war no more.”
    —Unknown. “Down by the Riverside,” l. 5-7.

    Based on Isaiah 2:1-5.
