Plus, a stressful family environment may cause a child to experience learning disabilities and possibly be of a high risk of a stress related illness. At the same time, various other elements within a child’s background may affect behaviour and development, these being; divorce, a new baby, diet, poverty and media to mention a few. Children of one parent families may suffer as the parent may work long hours leaving the child with very little support and possibly no role model to look up to. Divorce also can be very traumatic for a child. Children whose families have joined with another family and therefore have ‘step-family’ may experience unhappiness due to the child being picked on or feeling left out, this would lead to low self-esteem and they would quite possibly result in lack confidence in their own abilities.
Children who have suffered a brain injury may show some behaviour similar to those of ADHD. However, only a small percentage of children with ADHD have suffered a brain injury. P3 Additional help that someone with ADHD may need is guidance and understanding from their parents and teachers to reach their full potential and to succeed in school. Before a child is diagnosed, frustration, blame, and anger may have built up within the family. Parents and children may need help to overcome the bad feelings.

Identify two ways that an adult's behaviour at work could negatively influence the development of children. 1) If you are feeling down and unwell, children and young people that you are working with are able to pick up on this and it could cause them to become unhappy and perhaps uncomfortable. This may then result in them not wanting to join in in activities or even find it as an excuse to play up.
1.2 Describe, with examples, how different aspects of development can affect one another. A child being unable to express themselves through oral language may find it themselves frustrated and will show this frustration in their behavior towards others. This will affect their social and communication development strongly, as they won’t be able to communicate normally, they will probably show less want to join in with others and friendships may be harder to obtain. A child that crawls later than normal wouldn't be able to explore their environment the way a normal child would. This would affect their physical development and their intellectual development, as their learning at the age of crawling is sometimes dependent on their ability to move and touch things.
2.1 Describe with examples the kinds of influences that affect children and young people’s development including: • Background • Health • Environment Background A young child especially is mostly influences by their parent or parents. This is because they learn from them and are a huge part of their lives. Each child will have a different childhood to others, as each individual is different. Parents have a strong bond with their own child and want only the best in life for them, this could be to want them to have the best childhood possible, watch them grow and exceed with career expectations. Also to meet new people, friends and develop new relationships.
"Children with challenging behavior and children with disabilities may have strengths in more neglected intelligences—music, art, physical movement, computers, for example. This approach allows them to develop and showcase their unique abilities" (Rasminsky, 2012, p 168). Children emotionally respond the environment they are in. Everybody desires respect, praises, and strong relationships-children are no different. Children must have a role model, most of the time is the teacher or family, but if they are not able to supply the demands than the child may look up to a trouble maker.
A child with mental retardation, autism, learning disability, or attention deficit hyperactive disorder may present with behavior problems that parents described as defiant, aggressive or temper tantrums, etc. where in fact, the behaviors are related to the child's disability and possibly unrealistic expectations. Mild disabilities may not be easily detected and undesirable behavior may be mistakenly attributed to the child's
Some children who have arrived from another country where formal education begins later may also find their intellectual development affected as they have had no previous education but could also affect their emotional and behavioural development if they feel they are not able to do what others have already learnt to do. Schools will often put appropriate support in place for children in these situations. Abuse/Neglect - If a child has suffered from any abuse or neglect it will almost certainly affect the
Information from carers and colleagues. It is important for teachers and parents to work together and share any concerns they have regarding their child. They can share ideas and strategies to assist the child in reaching their full potential. 3.2 Children and young people’s development may not follow the expected pattern for a number of reasons.
