This perspective can also be used to explain phobias. This perspective could help us to understand a service user who has a phobia of needles. Freud would say that the phobia is a symbol of an unconscious problem or past experience in childhood e.g. a patient may have been hurt by a needle or had an awful experience – poking around for a vein. Now they are older and may need blood tests, maybe insulin dependent diabetic - they would need psychoanalysis in the day care centre to get over this phobia We need to be careful not to make assumptions about services users – their behaviour may be due to earlier childhood experiences.
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.
When disciplining a child, parents often seek the best way to get control over their disobedience as soon as they can. A very familiar form of discipline is spanking. If a child is misbehaving, a swat on the bottom may be the first option a parent may go to. What spanking does, ultimately may not give the parent the satisfaction he or she wanted. After spanking children, they will stop what they are doing at the time and will immediately obey their authority.
Parents need to take better precautions to benfefit their childrens future health. Caffeine is one of the most commonly used and abused drugs. People are taking advantage of its effects. With these facts and opinions, it’s a shame that people don’t take more of a
Unfortunately there is no cure for CP, but there are treatments, therapy, and in some cases sugary to help the child live with the condition. Cerebral Palsy is one of the most common congenital disorders of childhood. An average of half a million adults and children suffer from CP in the United States. This disorder affects both complex and simple muscle coordination and also affects normal vital functions such as breathing, bladder and bowel control, eating and learning. Fortunately CP does not get worse over time.
In 2008 the number of kids that reported the misuse of prescription drugs was 1 in 5 teens (Partnership Tracking Study [PATS], 2009). An increase from 2003’s estimated 2.3 million teens in the U.S. (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration [SAMHSA], 2004). This has showed that out of the 1.7 million emergency room visits that over 700,000 involved prescription drugs (Drug Abuse Warning Network [DAWN], 2008). This problem with teens is very important because of two reasons, it can have severely impact on brain development during adolescence, (Compton & Volkow, 2005) and the misuse of prescription drugs before 16 may lead to more drug use later in life (SAMHSA, 2006). That is why there is so much concern with teens misusing prescription drugs is because of the long and short term medical problems it causes and how quickly the problem is growing in our
As he grew up, he continued to be prescribed increasing amounts of antipsychotic drugs, up to the point of him taking eight different medications and developing a nervous tick in his neck (Gaviria 2008). Their warrants question the ethics of diagnosing children – how do you differentiate between a child’s natural energy and moods, and those caused by ADHD or bipolar disorder? They also state that most antipsychotic drugs are made for – thereby clinically tested by – adults, and there is not enough evidence to show that these drugs would be safe or even effective when given to children. Although the overlying position this documentary takes is against the over diagnoses of bipolar disorder, included in the film are a few experts who attempt to show how the rise in diagnoses is not simply a product of over medicalization, but an actual scientifically proven issue. Doctors Joseph Biederman and Kiki Chang are the main claimsmakers for this argument in the documentary, and they use the also typifying example of a little girl who is shown joyfully proclaiming that she
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.
I agree with him because parents are the first line of defense when it comes to their children's eating habits. When children are first born parents should be in control of what goes into their mouths. They do this by making good choices at the supermarkets, cook healthy meals and set good examples. Weintraub compares fast food to other hazards in life such as alcohol and cars. Everyone knows they can be dangerous when taken to extremes - even young children.
Brandon and his bear sometimes fly into unprovoked rages. Sometimes they're silly and overexcited. A nice doctor tells them they are ill, and gives them medicine that makes them feel much better (Jon, 2011).” Sometimes kids are just kids and just get upset, sometimes being that each child is an individual they will not perform or behave in a standard way but does this make them ill and need drugs or stimulants? Today the availability of prescription drugs is on the rise. We live in a society where children often take more medications than adults.
