Stages Of Child Development

Parent-child interaction can be define as the communication and relation that is form between the parents and their child. Parent-child interaction is important to make them learn social rules and emotional prompts (Haven, Manangan, Sparrow, & Wilson, 2014). Through the years children can form different types of attachment with both or one specific parent. Also, according to attachment theorist, the type of attachment a child has with their parent will shape the way they see and think about themselves and others (Ontai & Thompson, 2008). The behavior of a child is greatly related to the relation and interaction they have with their parents.

For example, children who are in a good relationship with their parents while still remaining in contact with them prior to the separation or divorce, transition better into adulthood . Children who tend to be avoidant Children who rely on avoidance or suppression of emotions tend to display less satisfactory adjustment (Greenberg, page 8). Due to these issues involving child custody, there are services available to assist families and to help reduce the amount of conflict. B. Ethical issues in child custody involve more than just the child and the parents and sometimes professional help is needed to help resolve the dispute and decide what is best for the

Early exploratory and play activities, which occupy much of children 's waking hours, provide opportunities for enlarging their repertoire of basic skills and sense of efficacy. The initial efficacy experiences are centered in the family. But as the growing child 's social world rapidly expands, peers become increasingly important in children 's developing self-knowledge of their capabilities. Peers serve several important efficacy functions. Those who are most experienced and competent provide models of efficacious styles of thinking and behavior.

A child who is unsafe or has been neglected has a physically smaller brain and fewer brain connections ‘to develop the brain, pathways need to be made, connections made over and over so the baby can remember and learn otherwise these pathways are lost’ than a child who is safe. ‘Babies brains are making connections at a rapid pace’, when a child feels safe and is happy they are more able to participate and learn from their play, interactions, and daily routines. A child’s relationships affect all areas and stages of their development. The experiences they have in their younger years will shape them for the rest of their life. The parents are the most important thing in a child’s life.

School routines usually consist of them stepping in when they notice change in a child behavior at school, which is a common thing at a high school or any grade level school. They usually deal with students who are having problems with the pressure being put on them by their parents, teachers, and coaches and often even their peers. Needless to say this could appear to be to much for a child to handle all by themselves. Social workers work to make the environment they are in , whether it being school or home a safer place for them to be in. People in this field focus on helping students deal with the problems and pressures that they may face every second of the day, both at home and in school.

Critical Relational Frames All relational frames are important for children to develop language acquisition as well as for them to understand their environment, but others are a little more important because they deal with the child’s ability to gain his/her own perspective of life as well as self-awareness as a result authors Novak and Pelaez state, “The three frames that have been identified as the most important in this regard are the frames of “I and you”, “here and there” and “now and then” (Novak & Pelaez, 2004, p. 309). These frames are different and are developed from caregivers that offer children extensive examples in the form of language; for example the caregiver would say “what are you looking at “while focusing their gaze on

Moreover, I heard that the mother who breastfeed has big role in getting a nice body after delivery. Over years, breastfeeding has proved its importance to protect the childhood and mother illnesses. I heard that mothers who breastfeed their infants has great effects to protect their child from many diseases like high cholesterol and diabetes. Meanwhile, breastfeeding can protect the mothers of breast cancer. Also, breastfeeding has benefits to enhance the growth of baby brains.

The caregiver plays a major role in the treatment. Her first step is to work with their adult caregivers whether they are foster, foster to adopt, or biological parents and educate them about the disorder and how it develops and this particular treatment process in order to get their agreement to do this type of work. Sometimes parents get so involved in there children that they forget to take care of themselves. So the parent is strongly encouraged and educated to take care of him or herself, including taking care of their own emotional well being, relieving stress, and establishing a support system. The social worker then instructs the parent on a number of techniques that include: helping the child establishing respect and trust, creating a strong emotional, nurturing bond (with that child), and teaching the child self control, as well as helping the parents learn how to help the child put words to his or her feelings.

My experience observing infants, toddlers and preschoolers, so far has been very pleasant and informative. I learned through my field experience, that when caring for and teaching young children, the teacher is not just the person responsible to instill information. In fact, the teacher’s role is very extensive. A teacher is the young child’s friend, playmate, guide, counselor, supporter and much more. As a teacher, it is very important to win the trust of the parents so that they feel confident that their children are in safe hands and a nurturing environment.

Socially, the child’s interactions with children his own age happen at school and the after-school program. Being exposed to age related peers is good for his social development. It has been shown that, “When parents and children can access local community institutions (e.g. libraries, medical facilities) and social agencies (e.g. to receive income entitlements) children’s achievement can be enhanced beyond the level which schools alone can accomplish” (Fred Biddulph, 2003).
