Blight Family Life: However, it is not always physical or social conditions as such that blight family life; the way in which the family perceives its conditions is also to be considered. It is practically impossible to establish a cause-and-effect relationship between the socioeconomic conditions in a child's home and his school achievement or emotional attitudes (42, p. 152, 1957).
In 45 a disastrous blight ruined about three-larters of the potato crop. Worse blight llowed in 1846 and relief measures by the •itish government were too late and too tie to provide enough food. An estimated million Irish died, although e potato crop recovered in 1847. Large-ale emigration to America began and by 61 about two million Irish had left their tive land, bearing a great deal of ill-will wards England. The effects of the famine :re instrumental in having the Corn Laws pealed in 1846.
Paternal Pozver.—The patriarchal organization of the Roman family gave its head an unrestricted power (patria potestas) over all other members of the family, a power of life and death. Ordinarily no member of the family could have property of his own; all acquisitions made by family members belonged to the father. Remedies against cruelty or arbitrariness of the father were a family council, which he consulted before taking a drastic measure against a person under his power, an official blame by the censors, and later a complaint with the competent authority.
