Answer:

By the summer of 1944, the war in the Pacific was clearly being won by the United States and its allies, who, emboldened by the decimation of Japanese naval and air forces at the Battle of Midway two years earlier, had driven Japanese forces from most of their island strongholds. Commander in Chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet (CINCPAC) Adm. Chester W. Nimitz had led the Allied Pacific Ocean Areas command in wresting the island of Guadalcanal from the Japanese and driving up through the Solomon Islands to Bougainville. Joint Army and Marine Corps amphibious assaults had routed the Japanese from the Gilbert and Marshall Islands chains. Gen. Douglas A. MacArthur, Supreme Allied Commander of the Southwest Pacific Area, was on the threshold of recapturing the Philippine Islands after leading forces along the northeast coast of New Guinea and to nearby islands, isolating and enfeebling key Japanese installations.

What stage of the family life cycle was your family in during each of these time periods? What were their developmental tasks?
guapka [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

The emotional and intellectual stages you pass through from childhood to your retirement years as a member of a family are called the family life cycle. In each stage, you face challenges in your family life that allow you to build or gain new skills. Gaining these skills helps you work through the changes that nearly every family goes through.

Not everyone passes through these stages smoothly. Situations such as severe illness, financial problems, or the death of a loved one can have an effect on how well you pass through the stages. Fortunately, if you miss skills in one stage, you can learn them in later stages.

The stages of the family life cycle are:

Independence.

Coupling or marriage.

Parenting: babies through adolescents.

Launching adult children.

Retirement or senior years.

wariber [46]

Every investment has its risks hazard related to it. We can't deny the way that risk is available when making any venture, it may be in the land, or the stocks, or the wares, or the joint assets, and so on, and there is always a factor of hazard connected.
