A child could also feel as if any adult that approaches then could be harm to them. There are also signs that you can tell when a parent is abusing the child. An example would be if a parent was talking about the child saying he and or she was very bad or "evil". Another reason why a parent would possible physically abuse a child would be because they were abused themselves when they were younger. Second, Neglect: when a child is being neglected he and or she is consistently dirty and smells really horrid.
Prejudice and Discrimination In this report I am going to consider the meaning of both prejudice and discrimination and the implications both can cause. ‘Prejudice means a preconceived opinion or bias, against or in favour, of a person or thing’ (Marshall, G 1998). Prejudice is judging a person or group by certain characteristics and stereotypical beliefs but not acting upon them. An example of prejudice is thinking that all teenagers are troublemakers. The implications on the individual that can develop from this prejudice are feelings of low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence as well as a lack of employment opportunities.
For a schizophrenic this suggests that their behaviour is a consequence of faulty learning. For example, if a child receives little or no social interaction early in life (parental disinterest), the child will attend to inappropriate and irrelevant environmental cues (e.g. the sound of word rather than its' meaning). This results in the child's behavioural responses becoming bizarre and so those that may observe the child's behaviour may avoid it or respond erratically, therefore reinforcing the child's behaviour. This cycle will eventually deteriote into a psychotic state.
The main causes of social intimidation are depression, low self esteem, and fear among children. Depression and low self-esteem almost go hand in hand. Social intimidation can lead any child to be depressed. When you are constantly the target of a bully it is inevitable. Depression can lead to several thins such as bad grades, wanting to miss school, and lose of interest in anything.
When these needs of the child are not met, they develop a sense of mistrust not only in themselves, but in others. They tend to see the world as threatening, unpredictable and hostile. 2. Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt. The second stage takes place roughly between 18 months through age 3.
I am writing about an issue that occurs within broken families and is a form of child abuse. This little known form of abuse is called Hostile Parenting, formally called Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS). Hostile Parenting is a group of behaviors that are damaging to the children’s mental and emotional well-being and can interfere with a relationship between the child and either parent. These behaviors most often accompany high conflict marriages, separation and divorce. The behaviors whether verbal or nonverbal, cause a child to be mentally manipulated or bullied into believing a loving parent is the cause of all their problems, or the enemy to be feared, hated, disrespected and avoided.
1.0. INTRODUCTION Antisocial behaviour is defined as behaviours that violates the social norm and disrupt the quality of life of an individual, family and the community. It encompasses any behaviour that causes alarm or distress to another. Antisocial behaviours can be intentional or through negligence and are characterized by overt or covert hostility or often aggression towards others. Hanrahan (n.d.) noted that such behaviours “exist along a severity continuum and include repeated violations of social rules, defiance of authority and of the rights of others, deceitfulness, theft, and reckless disregard for self and others”.
They may use others for their own gain. Some act with arrogance and show strong contempt to others. They lack confidence in themselves and often have doubts of their self-worth and cannot accept themselves. They view themselves as failures and frequently blame others for their shortcomings and do not take responsibility for their actions. There is a close relationship to such problems as violence, alcoholism, eating disorders, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, school dropout, suicide and low academic achievement.
“Low self-esteem can predispose you to developing a mental disorder, and developing a mental disorder can in turn deliver a huge knock to your self-esteem.” (Psychology Today, 2014). Mental disorders, such as major depression, can cause a person to feel less than; to feel as if they are not worthy of the life they lead. Low self-esteem can often make a mental disorder worse than what it was originally. People who suffer from low self-esteem generally have a very negative world view. They may see the world as a hostile,
Their behavior may: * Be incomprehensible to others * Make others feel threatened or uncomfortable * Could scar children for life With this definition, it is necessary to consider the degree to which a norm is violated, the importance of that norm and the value attached by the social group to different sorts of violation. Like is the violation rude, eccentric, abnormal or criminal? Failure to Function Adequately It means that if a person is unable to live a normal life, e.g. goes to work, form close relationships, or perhaps venture outdoors. When a particular behaviour interferes with everyday life then it might be regarded as an abnormal.
