It’s beneficial as there are male and female role models available for the children, and it gives the parents more control of how their children are brought up. Another strength is that there’s less interference from wider family members however this can also be seen as a negative aspect, as other people are unaware of what’s happening and if there was any problems within the family and therefore it’s difficult to identify neglect. This also makes it difficult to seek professional help outside of the family. Another disadvantage of this privatised nuclear family is that children are only exposed to one set of values and so are influenced to become like their parents in the future as they have no exposure to other behaviours of different families. A criticism of this
It would be some sort of game to create children as you wish and start a pure race. Nothing would be left undecided; it would all be planned. Then, comes the possibility of error. For example, Vincent, conceived naturally, was predicted to die at the age of 30 but he beat those predictions and outlived them. We, as humans aren’t perfect and what is trying to be reached is perfection, which is obviously impossible.
The dystopia created by Niccol explores the “not-too-distant future” where genetic engineering has become the ‘normal’ approach for conceiving a child, which is unlike what the society today perceives to be normal. Within the film Gattaca, the social discrimination is based on genetics: People born with the aid of genetic engineering are the ‘Valids’, whereas people born in the way known as natural are considered to be the ‘In-valids’. In a sense of this, parents pursue to have their children to be “the best of (them)” which could be already “guaranteed at birth”, rather than taking the risk of entrusting their lives to fate. However, this ends up bringing up a new form of prejudice subject to the idea of having superior or inferior genes, nothing different to which in the past when people were discriminated on their race or sex. In-valids have their
I believe that it is helpful to a certain degree. That stated, I believe that it is helpful so that the child will be able to be the best that he/she can be. On the other side of the spectrum, it can also be harmful and overpowering. This can be so by making the specimen feel superior to the rest causing a sort of clash between personalities claiming to be the best but no one will be sure of who is indeed the best because of the genetic chosen at the stage of being a zygote. This type of “testing” can also lead to a whole new social class like in the movie, causing non-justified discrimination over a
Explain the factors that need to be taken into account when assessing Development. Assessing children and young people has to be done sensitively and accurately. There are a number of factors that have to be considered. CONFIDENTIALITY: Before you can carry out an observation on a child, you must get gain permission from parents or those responsible for the child. Most parents are happy for there children to be observed, although they would not want any other parents or people who have no involvement with the child to read any reports.
The main great thing about this is that it doesn’t just benefit one child; it benefits any child anywhere because they are all different and will all respond differently to certain approaches. By using the right approach for that specific child can increase their chance of learning and may also enhance their self-esteem which can be helpful in later life. • children should be given every opportunity to learn • no one has the right to do anything to them that makes them feel uncomfortable • they should be taught and encouraged not to put up with any behaviour from adults or children that makes them feel threatened • it is important to establish open and honest discussion with children and young people about all kinds of issues that will affect them while they are attending your service • it is also important that children learn to manage risk themselves. Moreover, children want to be respected, their views to be heard, to have stable relationships with professionals built on trust and for consistent support provided for their individual needs. This should guide the behaviour of professionals.
Nicole D. Hiles 10/20/08 Breast is Best There is no greater feeling in the world than holding your newly born baby, and looking into her eyes. It is such a wonderful gift, for God to entrust you with the care of one of his most precious children. So many things go through a new mothers thoughts, so many worries, and joy's all at once. Many new mothers often worry if they will be able to adequately care for their new baby. One thing most every mother wants, is to give their child the very best they can.
With much speculation, this topic has become a very intriguing argument. What people must understand is that properly raising a child does not rely on the structure of a family but should be more focused on the process or values that are taught to these children as they learn to mature. Children of single parents can be just as progressive with emotional, social and behavioral skills as those with two parents. People claim that the only way for children to gain full emotional and behavioral skills is to be raised by both a mother and a father. When a topic such as this one has a broad amount of variables it is impossible to simply link these problems to only having one parent.

Other factors to consider are your child’s age, the parts of the toys, and the educational value. When selecting toys for young children, certain guidelines need to be met, so that the child is not at risk for harm in any way and so that they can learn effectively. Young children learn by putting toys in their mouths, so any toys selected for a young child to play with, must not have any small or loose parts as this can lead to choking or death. The toys should also be well made and durable so that parts do not break off. The toys need to be interesting and appealing to a young child.
