In this article, we examine the responses of family companies to the emerging environment of mergers and acquisitions, specifically within the international wine industry. At issue is the question of how the family perspective influences responses of a family firm to the prospect of merger or takeover. We examine the issue through a case study of the takeover of an Australian wine producer and family firm, Peter Lehmann Wines. The case study demonstrates ways in which the family perspective is critical in driving responses, for example, in the strength and forms of opposition to one of the potential acquirers in the case, indicating just how important the preservation of a family legacy was to key family members. However, the case also illustrates how in a takeover fight the dynamics of the takeover process itself become important in determining outcomes. In addition, the case demonstrates that family involvement and influence can be maintained in spite of takeover.

Resident relocation to flats policy becomes a strategy of the Jakarta Provincial Government to overcome illegal settlements and slum areas. The relocation is also aimed to improve the quality of life, particularly of the children. This research analyses the determinant factors of the quality of life of children who are moved to the flats due to the relocation. This research uses the Kid-KINDLR questionnaire to collect data of children in the range of age 7-13 years and the Z-score method to process the data and to build an analysis. The Z-score > 0 indicates a good quality of life, while Z-score < 0 is otherwise. The result shows that 48% of the children have a good quality of life and 52% of the children have a poor quality of life (mean = 91.45 and SD = 9.559). There is a positive correlation between the quality of life of children and the pattern of nutrients intake of children (r = 0.053, p = 0.518), the education of the head of the family (r = 0.058, p = 0.478), and the household income (r = 0.070, p = 0.401). Whereas, the negative correlation between the quality of life of children and the number of family members (r = -0.088, p = 0.284). This research argues that to increase the quality of life of children, the facilities in the flats must be built properly for the growth of the children. In addition, family involvement must be improved to provide a high quality of nutrients intake for the children.

There were primary concerns partnered with challenges and issues in ensuring the delivery of quality Special Education (SPED) Program. The study aimed to assess the family involvement and practices in educating the school learners with special needs.  It focused on determining the extent of the families’ involvement and practices at West City Central School, Cagayan de Oro City Philippines. A survey research design was used to achieve the objectives of the study. Moreover, a total of 47 respondents were selected to complete the survey questionnaires concerning the involvement of families in school’s activities and programs. The questionnaires were collected personally, and descriptive statistics was utilized to obtain accurate results from the data gathered. As a result, there were seen opportunities for the families to portray further their roles as primary partners of the school; there were methods employed to promote accepting atmosphere for them; and contrariwise, there were few family education and training opportunities provided; few schools policies related to SPED were created and explained to them; and not all their needs and state’s standards were met. Henceforth, the families should receive regular family-teacher conferences and increase family involvement opportunities.

En Chile las iniciativas de intervención social escolar son procesos emergentes, que se proyectan considerando el marco normativo de la educación y las políticas públicas en el área. Especial interés revisten aquellas iniciativas que apuntan a fortalecer la relación familia-escuela. De esta forma, el artículo busca dar a conocer las visiones del equipo de gestión escolar municipal respecto a situaciones problemáticas vivenciadas por la familia y caracterizar el vínculo familia-escuela. Los antecedentes teóricos a la base del estudio, provienen de la teoría del cambio educativo, el cambio contextualizado y el involucramiento familiar. Se trabajó en base a una metodología cualitativa, a través de un estudio de caso, en que cada caso corresponde a una escuela. Aquí se presentarán los hallazgos parciales correspondientes a un establecimiento. A modo de resultados, destaca una visión negativa de la familia por parte del equipo de gestión, reconociendo una relación jerárquica entre ambas esferas y niveles de vinculación familia-escuela unidireccionales y de bajo protagonismo por parte de las familias.School social interventions in Chile are recently emerging and flourishing due to new educational policies and norms. These interventions have placed a specific focus on expanding and improving the relationship between the family and the school. Drawing from a larger case study that included 5 schools which sought to explore and compare the perspectives of municipal school administrative teams in regards to the family school relationship as well as problematic family situations, this article presents the findings from one particular school. The study is framed from the theory of educational change, contextualized change, and the family involvement literature. Findings from the study reveal school administrative teams hold a negative vision of the family and the relationship between the school and the family is hierarchical and unidirectional in nature, with little participation from families.

The family described in this article provides an unusual opportunity to relate findings from genetic, histological, electrophysiological, psychophysical, and rehabilitative investigation. Although the total number evaluated is large (49), the known, living affected population is smaller (14), and these are spread from age 20 to age 59. As a result, the findings described above are those of a large-scale case study. Clearly, more data will be available through longitudinal study of the individuals documented in the course of this investigation but, given the slow nature of the progression in this disease, such studies will be undertaken after an interval of several years. The general picture presented to the audiologist who must rehabilitate these cases is that of a progressive cochlear degeneration that affects only thresholds at first, and then rapidly diminishes speech intelligibility. The expected result is that, after normal language development, the patient may accept hearing aids well, encouraged by the support of the family. Performance and satisfaction with the hearing aids is good, until the onset of the speech intelligibility loss, at which time the patient will encounter serious difficulties and may reject hearing aids as unhelpful. As the histological and electrophysiological results indicate, however, the eighth nerve remains viable, especially in the younger affected members, and success with cochlear implantation may be expected. Audiologic counseling efforts are aided by the presence of role models and support from the other affected members of the family. Speech-language pathology services were not considered important by the members of this family since their speech production developed normally and has remained very good. Self-correction of speech was supported by hearing aids and cochlear implants (Case 5’s speech production was documented in Perkell, Lane, Svirsky, & Webster, 1992). These patients received genetic counseling and, due to the high penetrance of the disease, exhibited serious concerns regarding future generations and the hope of a cure.
