Parents whisper lullabies to put their kids to sleep, these lullabies mostly have come out as a maternal art and they have been acceptable to the audience (kids). Therefore, lullabies have been attributed to mothers and they reveal the importance of the role of mothers in nurturing their kids, and their emotional impact on them. The years of research show that music and gentle words, which are peaceful and orderly like a lullaby, can calm the mind through stimulation of delta waves in the brain and put it to sleep. Lullabies are one of the first and the most basic forms of informal or anecdotal children›s poetry, which are as old as Persian poetry. They are considered as a component of folk literature. Lullaby is one type of oral literature that has a great impact on formation of national and folk discourse. Lullaby is the first rhythmic bond between mother and kid and it expresses mother’s dreams in a stress-free simple way. Lullabies have been common in oral literature of Hormozgan for a very long time. The purpose of this article is to introduce the lullabies of southern Iran and to review the manifestations of nature in them.

Nowadays, promotion of drugs seems to be one of the serious issues among teenagers who have shown tendency toward industrial drugs due to their availability and accessibility. The present study intends to predict the role of family supports in providing social support for teen addicts in Hormozgan province. This study is descriptive; the population consists of all teenagers between the ages of 15 to 20 who are addicted to one type of drugs and a sample of 345 available people was selected among the addicted teens. The data was collected through Bamerind’s parenting approaches questionnaire and Zimmet et al. (1998) social support questionnaire, and then analyzed using descriptive and inferential tests of Kolmogorov Smirnov and Pierson correlation coefficient and multivariable regression through SPSS 20. According to the results of synchronic regression, authoritative family support predicts social support perception and positively predicts any variation in variance in social support perception (Beta=0/ 413 & p0/05). According to adjusted R2 rate, 27/3 percent of variations of variance in social support perception are explained by authoritatively and inconsiderately family support. Therefore, it might be concluded that the appropriate style of family support is related to social support perception and incorrect styles like despotic one prevents the teen addicts from receiving support from the society when they need it.
