However, the main competition is for the child’s affection. The competition is intensified due to the child being attached to both the parent and the provider. Another emotion is insecurity. Parents can feel insecure then they perceive that they are not number one in their child’s eyes. Insecurity can also mean fear of abandonment or fear of being replaced.
It focuses on how important an relationship between a mother and child is. Also suggested that the development must occur during the critical period. If a child has experienced many separations before the age of 2 1/2, it is likely that the child will become emotionally disturbed.

ASSESSMENT TASK - CCLD MU 2.2 Contribute to the support of child and young person development Criteria 3.1 & 3.2: At several stages of children’s and young people’s lives transitions take place. While some changes can be positive, others may be difficult and therefore affect their development in a negative manner by becoming withdrawn, confused, frightened, angry, loss of appetite or lack of sleep. Importantly, successful transitions are dependent on practitioners consulting one another and building on information provided by parents and practitioners alike. During their time at nursery children may undergo different types of transitions such as emotional, physical, physiological and intellectual. To identify the transitions which children may face can help us to support and manage them.
PSY481U Assignment 2 Theme 1: Learning and Behaviour Disorders Attention- Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders “Children with ADHD continue to pose a considerable challenge to their families and society at large” Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disorder associated with socially disruptive behaviours such as inattentiveness, hyperactivity and impulsivity. Cantwell (1996) explained that these behaviours may cause significant impairment and interference in numerous areas of a child’s normal development. Furthermore, according to Tutorial letter 101 for PSY481U (2010) children with ADHD also have a consequential impact on the lives of those surrounding the child. The focus of this essay will be a discussion on the challenges
Competitive activities could be discovered from many different resources besides their own mother and/or father. Another moral issue in applying this plan would be the finish unraveling of close relative’s member’s model that this country was established on. The children placed in these circumstances would grow up with a reduced feeling of close relative’s principles and that belong, since more children would be removed under this plan than would have otherwise been placed as wards of the condition including children whose families would have taken proper them and are
Family life can be characterized as chaotic and uncertain. Structure and rules may be either nonexistent or inconsistent. Children, who may not understand that their parent’s behavior and mood is determined by the amount of alcohol or other drugs in their bloodstream, can feel confused and insecure.

Child Custody The biggest question that divorcing parents face is who is going to retain custody of the children after the divorce and what role will the other parent play and to what extent. Most parents stress about the outcome of the child and how the divorce will also affect the child. Prior to the 1970’s most mothers were awarded majority of the custody, in the 1970’s research began to show that it was more beneficial for a child to have equal time with both parents, if they are both “fit and loving” (Demo & Fine, 2010, p.66). Although laws have changed to provide father’s more time and access to their child/ children research does show that although some divorced noncustodial fathers become closer to their children after the divorce, the majority greatly reduce their involvement with their children (Bokker, 2006). This is more harmful to the child’s wellbeing on many different levels.
If the child is powerless to the situation, or is in no position to conduct an argument, the child would be mistaken, resulting in another two possible outcomes. One, if the child is of a younger age, he will feel unjustly treated, but will let it pass. Two, if it is a teenager, he or she might hold a grudge against the parent, complicating issues. They will then be at an emotional war. But most of the times its the insecurity of the parents especially in the major chunk of the middle class population of India, that determines the decision making of the parents towards their children.
Developmental psychologists have long been interested in how parents impact child development. However, finding actual cause-and-effect links between specific actions of parents and later behavior of children is very difficult. Some children raised in dramatically different environments can later grow up to have remarkably similar personalities. Conversely, children who share a home and are raised in the same environment can grow up to have astonishingly different personalities than one another. Despite these challenges, researchers have uncovered convincing links between parenting styles and the effects these styles have on children.
