If at any point they failed, they would see this as a big mistake and give up and have a lack of motivation. It can also be argued that working class children do not get the support of their parents, this is because many of the parents believe that they survived without an education, so believe that there children can do the same. Working class families can also lack in support in terms of if the child fails a particular exam, they would not give them positive feed back on how they could improve they would improve. Whereas, it can be argued that higher class families have more motivation and the parents also give the support to the children that is needed. This would have a positive influence on the child’s education as it would give them hope and not give them an opportunity of giving up.
Barriers come in many forms, such as when key persons are doing observations and planning. The parents may lack in confidence to give any suggestions or feel that their contribution isn’t worth making at all; they may also not want to get involved in this. However practitioner should let the parents of the child take charge on the suggestion making, instead of the practitioners taking charge. This allows the parents to feel valued and respect being given such an important role, building the parents confidence as their suggestions have be taken into
Give a brief explanation of how multi-agency teams work together to support speech, language and communication and explain how play and activities are used to support the development of speech, language and communication. To approach a parent about a developmental concern can be quite worrying as no parent likes to hear that their child is nothing but doing well! Firstly I would choose a time and place that would be convenient to both myself and the parent without interruption so we can take as much time as we need to discuss the matter in hand. I would have a caring, supportive and polite manner and perhaps begin with saying lots of positive things about the child like her compassionate nature with others or strong will when joining in activities. I would ask if the parent has any concerns in understanding the child’s speech, if they have I would elaborate by asking when, where and why (great questions in any situations!).
For children and young people to develop into adults with a high level of self-esteem and confidence they need to be taught life skills that enable them to build resilience, cope with life's challenges and have the capacity to accept constructive criticism and fend off negative comments for what they are without association. They also need to learn how to celebrate successes as well as coping with failure. 6.1, 6.3, 6.4 It is vital that children are shown how to have the confidence to express their feelings and the ability to say no if they do not like the way they are being treated. There will be occassions where adults need to intervene but learning how to cope in challenging situations is vital to their future well being. Giving children a safe, nurturing environment in which they are able to learn how to use the tools required to build resilience is paramount.
In addition, children will learn to argue with each other the same way their parents do. So a good parent must behave in order for his kids to do the same. Secondly, a good parent must have a good attitude. I believe that a reasonable attitude makes a child feel pleasant about the teaching of his parent. For example, when a child acts in a harmful manner, a good parent tells him that such behavior is unacceptable, suggest alternatives, explains this to him and avoids statements such as “You were bad”.
Kelcie Brown ENG 4U Miss Nimmo Dec 8th, 2008 Lost In the Glass Menagerie Failures are often seen as an event of inadequacy that one brings on oneself. On the other hand, failure can be induced and plotted by others. In these two plays, Bella Kurnitz from Lost in Yonkers and Laura Wingfeild from The Glass Menagerie, display many examples of total loss. Bella and Laura’s constant struggle to please their overbearing mother’s lead to their excessive defeats. Their mother’s cause them to fail in achieving their dreams of a loving male relationship, a decent education and an independent life.
Some are earlier than others and some must be later. In the short story, "The Most Powerful Question a Parent Can Ask..." by 'Neil Millar' shows the most respectful approach of parents to their children because when they talk to their children, they make them understand in a calm voice and not be all tensed which will just confuse the child. Also they make their children understand by not forcing them to do chores, but telling them how responsibility will grow on you later in life, and eventually you will have to learn it at some point of life. They explain to their kids much more in a depth concept which makes their kids want to learn so they will be well prepared for the future. "Parents are guides and leaders to their children, not a nanny."
This would be a great chapter of the book for parents to read because it would help them to understand why the school is doing what it is doing. There may be a lot of different things going on when it comes to discipline that a parent of a student with special needs does not understand and this chapter could given them a good insight to the reasons behind the actions. Also it would give parents the resources they need to maybe challenge what the school is doing if the school does end up over stepping their role in disciplining a student
Through my research it seemed as if the struggles presented were unexpressed to the ‘other side’ (parents or children), which then causes familial conflict. However, if parents and children actually knew and were explained about the types of trouble each other was facing, they would be better informed and would also be able to make educated decisions as to how one should act accordingly. What’s more, the family dynamic would then become a learning experience for both parents and children, instead of an intrapersonal struggle kept to oneself. This would lead to a healthier family unit, and give children a support system to rely on which would decrease the occurrence of bad
I have found that kids will actually enjoy having a babysitter more if they listen to the sitter and do what they are supposed to do. There are three main reasons why kids don’t want babysitters. The first reason is because they feel that they get into trouble. What kids don’t realize, however, is that if they respect their sitters, they will not have to worry about getting into trouble. The second reason why kids don’t want to be babysat is because it can get boring.
