2.2 Any form of prejudice and discrimination can have a severe negative effect throughout a person’s life. Being undervalued by peers can make a person feel isolated and lonely. A child’s confidence and self esteem will become less and less the more they are discriminated against. They will start not wanting to be involved in activities, stop putting their hand up to ask questions. This in turn will affect their learning and ability to interact.
People will often ask what makes a good or long lasting relationship. In truth there is no one answer, what works for some will not work for others, it’s about finding the balance that suits the both people. At the beginning of a new relationship, the excitement of being in that relationship helps us to not see the things the other person does which may cause annoyance. At this stage in the relationship both parties find themselves faced with everyday realities which means they have to work at the relationship to find and maintain a balance. When couples are faced with life changing events or illnesses the balance changes quickly and they will find themselves in the difficult position of facing their own feelings and fears while trying to support each other.
Some carers may not feel they can approach the person because the assume they are violent. If a person gets violent it is due to frustration and not being able to express themselves. It helps if you know how to approach the person so they dont get adjitated. You should always try to form positive relationships with clients even though they may not remember you a short time later. Some people just think a person dementia does not need to be spoken to bacause they may not be able to understand anyway.
It’s beneficial as there are male and female role models available for the children, and it gives the parents more control of how their children are brought up. Another strength is that there’s less interference from wider family members however this can also be seen as a negative aspect, as other people are unaware of what’s happening and if there was any problems within the family and therefore it’s difficult to identify neglect. This also makes it difficult to seek professional help outside of the family. Another disadvantage of this privatised nuclear family is that children are only exposed to one set of values and so are influenced to become like their parents in the future as they have no exposure to other behaviours of different families. A criticism of this
Isolation if a person’s significant other cheats on them or dies in a tragic accident that person may never wish to open themselves up again for fear of being hurt or cannot bare to deal with such pain again and choose to be isolated. The way in which the individual resolves each crisis will have a lasting effect on that person’s self-image and view of society. According to the theory, successful completion of each stage results in a healthy personality and successful interactions with others. Failure to successfully complete a stage can result in a reduced ability to complete further stages and therefore a more unhealthy personality and sense of self. The outcome of one stage, however, is not permanent and can be altered by later experiences.
It is hard for a partner to cope with personality changes after a stroke especially if the other person has become aggressive and unpredictable. Even when someone knows they have changed, it isn’t easy to control outbursts in future. This is what is upsetting for any member of the family who calls us, needing reassurance and support. Sometimes a partner needs to know they don’t have to put up with behaviour they find threatening and sometimes a call from a teenager suggests their mum should put up with the aggression because it “isn’t their dad” it’s the stroke causing him to behave differently.
If a person continues to deny what God has for them, then their lives will not be happy. “When we take things into our own hands, we have the feeling of being in control. But what or whom do we really control.” (Anderson, 2003, p. 281) There is one problem with someone who is rebellious. They will not want to hear any truths or be shown anything in their lives that they may need to work on. They may think that they are happy and that their lives are going along well, but they will soon find out that they are wrong.
This article “in groups we shrink” by Carol Tavris says when people are in a group; they act differently than they are on their own. Tavris believe that if one person is in danger situation, the person will try to figure out by own-self or go to someone’s help. She thinks, however when there are people in bad situation, they do not know how to act and hold back. According to the article, people in a group become lazier than individual and they think nothing needs to do for the dangerous situation, because they think someone else will take care about it. Also, She states examples of this theory in her article.
Mental illness may lead to families becoming withdrawn and having problems dealing with the illness of the loved one, sometimes families are no longer committed to taking risks participating in the mentally ill family member’s life, as they are scared of being hurt even more. All this can have a devastating effect on a family, it could result in the family members trying to help the mentally ill person in ways that couldn’t possibly work (may differ between people). The family may try to move to a different area, in an effort to get a fresh start, which could be worse for the person, in the sense that what is normal and secure is going to be gone and that they would become more insecure. Obviously people are different and families have different ways of dealing with illness, so results between people may vary, but evidently someone without a mentally ill family member could not begin to realise the struggle some people go through in dealing with illness within a family and how much respect should be shown to those who do have to deal with mental
If a child or young person is taught to be well behaved and not express themselves due to cultural or religious reasons, they may be afraid to socialise with their friends, like going out or speaking in a certain manner. Another example is if a child has experienced violence or witnessed violence frequently, they may develop trust issues and not form friendships or relationships thus affecting the social connections. Also sometimes certain health conditions can be associated with ethnic backgrounds, for example Anaemia is common amongst the South Asian community, therefore causing tiredness and lethargy making them more likely not to want to partake in sport activities. As professionals and adults, we must encourage diversity and try to meet their needs by understanding and respecting cultural differences. Also we must acknowledge their desires and act
