Outline possible effects of day care on children’s peer relations Clarke-Stewart et al. (1994) found that children in group-based day care were actually more sociable and better able to negotiate with peers than children cared for at home or at child-minders. Supporting evidence by Field (1991) found that the more time children spent in day care, the more friends they had and the more extracurricular activities they engaged in. Outline what research has shown about the effects of day care on children’s behaviour Maccoby and Lewis carried out a study into the effect of day care on children and they found that the more hours children spend in day care before they were 4 and a half years old, the more behavioural problems they would show in later education, along with increased conflicts with teachers. Field (1988) agreed with their findings and found that children who had been in full time day care were more aggressive towards their peers.

If an adoption goes smooth normally research shows that it was a positive factor in determining a child’s outcome. It also states that older children are more at risk for severe internalizing and externalizing problems. It makes sense though because they are more likely to take an adoption rough due to the fact that they understand more about the situation than young children. Family functioning was a significant factor for both emotional and behavioral problems of an older
Child Care Choice: Using Piaget and Erikson Stages of Development Kaplan University The choice of child care for Tyree’s parents to make for her best interest is Child Care A. Though Child Care A is more expensive than B, it provides a much more interactive and attentive environment, which is important for Tyree’s development. If we look at Erikson’s approach on psychological development- the first three stages (birth- six years old) – and Piaget’s approach-sensorimotor stage and preoperational stage- Child Care A fulfills the needs of this age group over Child Care B. Erikson’s first stage of psychological development is basic trust versus mistrust (birth to one year); in this stage the infants are in need of consistency and reliability from their caregivers in order to develop trust. Child Care A provides much attention to each individual child, speaking to them throughout the day, remaining consist in the schedule, and physical interactions with the children, giving the infant a sense of trust in the dependability of these caregivers. Initiative versus guilt, Erikson’s second stage (one to three years), is the stage where children being to explore and make choices, teaching them self-control.
With early intervention there are many services that parents can use relating to their child’s disabilities. Early intervention is for children from birth up until about kindergarten and it helps to prepare the family for the educational journey that they will face over the course of their life. There are not any weaknesses of early intervention. Early intervention is used to better the child and help build strengths where there are weaknesses. The strengths of early intervention are enhanced development, minimized developmental delays, and can decrease the need for special education in the future.
Iacovou (2008) found that eldest children do better educationally than later-born children, because first-born children benefit from parents’ undivided resource in the early age. Iacovou (2008) examined the relationship between birth order and educational attainment measured at ages 7, 11, 16, and 23, with particular care taken to separate the
The conclusion of the study was that early Montessori education had a long-term impact on later public school performance”(Cavegn). By way of example, parents who may be questioning the transition between a Montessori preschool to a traditional public school can view these results, and feel confident that the Montessori preschool program can potentially be the most effective and influential option for a preschool child’s higher education. Skills that are inevitably learned through Montessori, such as leadership, independence, socialization, respect, etc. further develop students’ education, and allow them to surpass other students who lack a Montessori education, in terms of test scores and grade point
The number of children being educated at home is considerably increasing though there are no accurate prevalence estimates as mentioned by Petrie, Windrass & Thomas, 1999. The same research made in the US mentioned that a million children are receiving education at home. On the other side, the majority of people are still thinking which schools their kids should join, which one is providing high level of education with a healthy environment that would help in raising their children and no wonder that they are ready to pay a fortune so that their children would enjoy being at school. If you ask me which option would you prefer for your kids, I would recommend school education. Although home educations provide privileges to parents and children, some may appear as for granted benefits to those who are getting their education at schools.
