If Sasha's grandmother had remained calm while seeking out help most likely Sasha would have been afraid but not as fearful as she was in this situation. 2. The impact of trauma is pervasive, affecting the physical development of the brain and the quality of children's relationships and attachments with others. Based on pages 10–11 of Hope and Healing and the essay "Stress, Nurture, and the Young Brain" in Concepts for Care, describe the impact of trauma on each of these areas of young children's development. Trauma affects young children's
Nature in terms of health and social care defines as the qualities we are born with that makes us what we are. Nurture defines as how we are influenced as a child by the environment around us, including other people. Many scientists, philosophers and researches argue that individuals’ personalities and talents come from their DNA and many others argue that the majority of it is influenced by life experiences and the environment. There have been studies involving identical and fraternal twins to find out if it is the genetics (nature) or environment (nurture), which was the effective one on the case of personality development. Which side of the debate is more influential?
Discuss the nature-nurture debate in relation to Demi Lovato Key principles Nature - is the inherited or innate characteristics, features or qualities of an individual. This side of the nature-nurture debate suggests that we are a certain way because of the genes we gain from our parents. Nurture - is how the surroundings on an individual affect them, e.g. their environmental influences and conditions. This side of the nature-nurture debate suggests that we are a certain way because of the way we were bought up and our life experiences.
Experience-expectant states that circumstances in which the nervous system is expected to develop a certain way. To develop at a standard cognitive rate there are environmental factors that play a role in a child’s development schedule. For this process to occur naturally and regularly then making sure the infant is never exposed to anything that can be harmful to their brain or anything that could cause issues to the development process. Experience-dependent growth is based on the ability to train your brain to experience the different aspects of life and grow and develop from them. This nurtures the development of an infant’s brain and when its united with a healthy family environment all
Unit 11: Care of sick children. E1: Summarise the key factors that influence the health of children today. The lifestyle of the child can be a key factor that could influence the health of children today because if the parents have a unhealthy lifestyle it could affect the lifestyle of the child. If the parents are unhealthy they are not going to think that their children need to have a healthier lifestyle than what they already have. The health and lifestyle of the mother in particular can make an important impact on the child’s future and also the health and lifestyle of the child as they grow.
First, community nurse can work as educator and give clients appropriate guidance. Ribbitt and Coyne highlight that community nurses can assist parents and children in providing nutritional advice, through weight management programmes offer strategies for reducing caloric intake and increasing physical activity. Secondly, community nurses also work as researcher. They do research for information collection and provide the last data of obese children, such as diet, habit of exercise. Assist expert or other employers explore more effective prevention and treatment of obesity in childhood.
So, when an infant forms an attachment it is responding to the love and attention it has received, language comes from imitating the speech of others and cognitive development depends on the degree of stimulation in the environment and, more broadly, on the civilization within which the child is reared. Examples of an extreme nature positions in psychology include Bowlby's (1969) theory of attachment, which views the bond between mother and child as being an innate process that ensures survival”. (www.simplypsychology.org) According to this theory, it is the combination of societal and biological influences that affect behavior in our children. Since the brain is not fully developed at birth, the environment in which the child is exposed gives opportunity to further enhance or, consequently, inhibit many areas of development. Neurobiologist have found that early long term stress can actually change the brain functioning and, in turn, create an overly sensitive nervous system.
The personal factors that contribute towards a child’s development are their genes which influence development of physical health and how the brain works. A Child’s environment, influences personality, potential and health, which will later be determined by how they are brought up. Genetic information is what triggers a disability, such as Down’s syndrome. This means that they may have an impairment of cognitive ability and physical growth so they will need extra support in daily activities. They also have different facial characteristics which can lead to bullying.
3.3 Describe with examples how transitions may affect children and young people behaviour and development…. Transitions may affect the child in many ways for example, A new sibling coming into the family whether being born onto the family adopted or fostered, the child/ children already in the family may feel exited, happy, giddy on the other hand upset jealous may become withdrawn and start attention seeking among other things, this in turn would affect their development in many ways if they are exited their Emotional development will progress due to wanting to help be in there doing lots of things for baby, their intellectual development will progress due to learning new things talking to the baby telling it stories. Their social development can go in two ways, if they became withdrawn they will end up on their own and lonely or with the new baby they will be getting a lot of attention and will end up in the thick of it. Their physical development again can go either way too, they could develop trying impress others and new baby, or they may regress due to not getting enough attention and wanting more whether its good or bad attention. Another example, Puberty, a sudden change to the body hormones raging through the body, changing things dramatically.
As much as natural conditions such as genetics or biological conditions influences the way brain develops, the influence of external stimuli on the level and procedure of development is undeniable. The environment that the infant is growing up in can be set up by the parents of another party to stimulate the brain. Whether the environment is set up by caregivers or not, the experiences that the child goes through, predicts the physical development of his or her brain. More stimulation can be interpreted as better and more brain development. However negative aspects of over-stimulation should be taken intro consideration.
