In this article, we analyse the formation of local communities from the perspective of the practices of parental involvement. Adopting a practice-based approach to empirical research on six estates in three Polish cities, we reconstruct the connections between the spatial logics of the housing areas, national education, and housing polices, and their impact on the everyday life practices inside and outside the estate. Using the category of practice of parental involvement, we show the complex, long-term impact of state and local education policies on everyday life and, as a result, on the processes of structuring or fragmentation of territorial communities. The results of our qualitative studies not only develop knowledge about the connections between national polices and everyday life practices but also, we hope, could help to design effective public policies.

This research aims to find out parental involvement or parental involvement in early childhood learning activities during the Covid 19 pandemic. Early childhood is still in desperate need of mentoring during the learning process from home and therefore the role of parents becomes very important because it has a long-term impact on the child's development. Respondents were 102 parents who had children aged 4-6 years in Pekanbaru City. This research uses survey methods with a quantitative descriptive approach. Overall, the results of parental involvement study consisted of three indicators, namely parental motivation, parents' perception of the invitation of others to engage in the child's education, as well as what parents felt in general was high. This means parents have a good motivation to accompany the child to learn by understanding their important role and having confidence in accompanying the child's learning activities.

Abstract. Background: There has been no systematic work on the short- or long-term impact of the installation of crisis phones on suicides from bridges. The present study addresses this issue. Method: Data refer to 219 suicides from 1954 through 2013 on the Skyway Bridge in St. Petersburg, Florida. Six crisis phones with signs were installed in July 1999. Results: In the first decade after installation, the phones were used by 27 suicidal persons and credited with preventing 26 or 2.6 suicides a year. However, the net suicide count increased from 48 in the 13 years before installation of phones to 106 the following 13 years or by 4.5 additional suicides/year (t =3.512, p < .001). Conclusion: Although the phones prevented some suicides, there was a net increase after installation. The findings are interpreted with reference to suggestion/contagion effects including the emergence of a controversial bridge suicide blog.
