Answer:

Starting with Illinois in 1911, the "mother's pension" movement sought to provide state aid for poor fatherless children who would remain in their own homes cared for by their mothers. In effect, poor single mothers would be excused from working outside the home. Welfare reformers argued that the state pensions would also prevent juvenile delinquency since mothers would be able to supervise their children full-time.

By 1933, mother's pension programs were operating in all but two states. They varied greatly from state to state and even from county to county within a state. In 1934, the average state grant per child was $11 a month. Administered in most cases by state juvenile courts, mother's pensions mainly benefitted families headed by white widows. These programs excluded large numbers of divorced, deserted, and minority mothers and their children.

Select the statement that does NOT represent a central epistemological

marta [7]

Answer:

c.) An essence is a physical entity that is the building block of every

object in the universe.

Explanation:

The central epistemological tenet of Plato's doctrine of the Forms deals basically about how the physical world is not really the 'real' world; but rather the ultimate reality exists beyond our physical world, which according to him is the Spiritual Realm

Thus, Platonic epistemology asserts that knowledge of Platonic Ideas is not physical, but innate, such that learning is the development of ideas buried deep in the soul.

Hence, the correct answer is "An essence is a physical entity that is the building block of every object in the universe."
