Firstly, the ideas of being isolated from a friendship group is a daunting vision for many youngsters, and are thus willing to adopt the groups norms and values if it means they will acquire popularity or just to be part of a group. The peer group is a secondary agent of socialisation which means they develop and further reinforce the learning one was once subjected to in early childhood. A peer group that holds good values, like hard work may encourage its members into positive things, yet one that has detrimental values may lead to deviant behaviour. In spite of this influence, some may argue that the media in today’s media saturated world has become the most influential agent of socialisation. Stereotypes related to gender are regularly portrayed in the media.
It can prevent children taking more drastic action like self-harming or suicide and can send a message to the bullies that what they’re doing is not working. If children are resilient they will be able to cope better with problems, they will have better health and they will be happier and more fulfilled. They will also be less likely to develop emotional problems like depression or anxiety. To get children to become resilient - to rely on themselves, they've got to believe that they are capable of doing this - how can adults help them? We as the adults have got to take children seriously, listen to them, make them feel that they are important, encourage children to try things out for themselves (you start with young children, by being close by, so they know there is an adult there if they need them - this often gives them more confidence to try things).
Being raised in a low income area surrounded by people living the same lifestyle as you as if struggling is the norm of society. Children learn from early in their adolescent years adapt to their environment if they see their parents living in the projects in most cases they won’t have any means to get out of the projects. Children are affected mainly because of what they see not all but quite a few children are comfortable living the same way they grew up . No matter the situation the child comes from it will never determine their fate.
Likewise it is just as important to accept that getting things wrong is okay and to understand how we can learn from our mistakes. Circle time is a great tool to learn how to take turns and listen to others, philosophy sessions is an excellent opportunity for children to express themselves without the fear of being wrong, to realise that everyone has their own opinion and that we do not all have to think the same and agree with each other. Children in life need to be able to make informed choices for themselves. Children are taught through the curriculum and assemblies
Everyone has they own beliefs and personal attitudes, but as a practitioner it is best for the children and setting if you follow the regulations set by the setting and also the parents wishes because you could influence a child down a path which isn’t conductive to their wellbeing. It is also
According to Coles, parents have difficulty explaining ethics to their children because they don't want to shatter their kids innocence. They tend to keep them in a bubble so their kids don't grow up with bad experiences, yet they tell them what to believe in. “In many homes parents establish moral assumption, mandates, priorities. They teach children what to believe in, what not to believe in. They teach children what is permissible or not permissible” (61).
This make's the child very happy and like to continue or add more to what they have done. It also makes them feel good about themselves. Praises are very important when working with children because it also helps the develop their morals. Negative behaviour will be ignored as long as there is no health and safety risk. A tantrum will be ignored by the teachers but if a child is expressing negative behaviour such as hitting, they will then be told to stop in a firm voice (not shouting) Vygotsky - Adults should provide a play based curriculum and engage with children in play activities to extend their learning.
This is where children/young people will be taught that no matter what anyone else says a child/young person’s body is theirs and only theirs. this will help in the short term because it will help give a child/young person the confidence to start saying no and being able to tell someone if they feel their body isn’t just their but someone who is abusing them. It will help in the long run because I the future a child/young person will remember this and know that no one owns their body but them and that means they can avoid abuse, and bad situations where their body is being used by other people. Providing children/young people with information on how to get help such as child
Although it seems like one is bribing the child, soon they will be able to cooperate on their own. The reward would be unknown, and treated as a simple an act of kindness. In conclusion, spanking is an ugly way of punishing a child and a terrible attempt to get them to listen. Parents do not realize that they are modeling an aggressive response to misbehavior and so their children learn to use an aggressive response when they are frustrated (Rambsung). Once the child gets older, the child will learn to hide or lie about problems in order to avoid being hit resulting in the connection between the child and parent to be lost forever.
In addition, children will learn to argue with each other the same way their parents do. So a good parent must behave in order for his kids to do the same. Secondly, a good parent must have a good attitude. I believe that a reasonable attitude makes a child feel pleasant about the teaching of his parent. For example, when a child acts in a harmful manner, a good parent tells him that such behavior is unacceptable, suggest alternatives, explains this to him and avoids statements such as “You were bad”.
