The founding fathers were trying to create a system to counter centralized power with checks and balances. Existing states constitutions had already separated powers among legislative, executive and judicial branches. But even worrying about royal tyranny, most of the founding fathers also feared rule by the people and supported various mechanisms to check the possible tyrannies of majority rule. They worried that majorities might tyrannize minorities. Some delegates displayed a thumping disdain for any democratizing of the political system.

Role strain.

As the exercise exemplifies, role strain occurs when a person has a difficulty meeting the responsibilities of a particular role in her or his life. A role is a set of expected behaviors and obligations a person has taken or has inherited. In this case, Janelle has role strain as a mother, given that she can't always act as she wants to and sometimes has as she is meant to do because of her role: to be firm, when she wants to be kind, altough she does it for the good of her children. When expectations are incompatible as these are, it is most likely to be facing role strain.
