Understand the potential effects of transitions on children and young people’s development Identify the transitions experienced by most children and young people. Transition experienced by most children and young people include: Moving away – This could make the child or young person frustrated because they are being torn away from either their favourite place or friends, this could also make the child become anxious. Friends moving away – This could make the child or young person feel nervous because they will then have to make new friends which may not be easy for the child, this could also make the child become anxious and become shy. Puberty – This could make the child or young person feel confused because they can’t control what is happening to them, this could also make the child become dismissive or make the child become argumentative with parents or carers. Starting a new school – This could make the child or young person feel nervous because they have to make new friends and could make the child feel anxious because they don’t know what will happen.
learning or physical. Learning disabilities which affect development could be: Autism; autism is a disability which affects how a person relates and communicates with other people and the world around them. Children with autism find it difficult to understand facial expressions or the tone of a voice. They can feel lonely and cut off from society as they avoid social interaction. This could affect their ability to development or interact in social settings or in the classroom.
If a child has speech, language and communication difficulties, it would have an impact on their development currently because they may not follow the expected pattern of development for their communication. The child may find it difficult to communicate with their carers and peers and they may become frustrated and show negative behaviour. The
Some of the symptoms of distress are mumbled/garbled speech or stammering, anxiety, anger, aggressive body language and concentrating problems. These are barriers that impact on effective communication, leading to misunderstanding on both sides. If you are the person in distress, you cannot hear or able to understand the whole picture because of the vicious cycle mentioned above. Individuals who are distressed will not be able to concentrate properly or focus fully, therefore their communication skills will be negatively affected. Whenever an individual becomes distressed they may experience the sense of "self" being compromised, as in low self esteem, effective communication may suffer as an individual feels withdrawn or stressed.
1.3 Explain how distress may affect the way an individual communicates. All individuals may react differently when feeling distressed. Some may become quiet, and not want to talk or make eye contact with you. Others may become angrier, and do all the talking in the conversation, and they may begin shouting. Individual’s self-esteem can be low, and their body language may be closed or negative, this can make communication difficult with an individual whom is distressed because you may not get any feed back from them, or you may not get a change to talk or be listened to to help them.
Aggression/ Aggressiveness: this is how the emotion is manifested. Challenging behaviour: This is behaviour that has been considered by society as not normal and challenging in everyday life. (“Culturally abnormal behaviour(s) of such an intensity, frequency or duration that the physical safety of the person or others is likely to be placed in serious jeopardy, or behaviour which is likely to seriously limit use of, or result in the person being denied access to, ordinary community facilities.” Emerson, (1995, 2001): An example of this would be a child or young adult with a condition/disorder such as ADHD or other significant individuals suffering from similar learning disabilities or disorders. It is behaviour that is viewed by many public members in today’s society as “problem behaviour”, that the particular individual who is behaving shouldn’t be demonstrating at their particular age. This type of behaviour takes more time to resolve and manage.
This can cause the child to feel lonely and angry at themselves because they are not at the other children's level of learning. 2. If a child doesn't like to share toys, this can cause a problem with social interaction as they will find it hard to form friendships. The other children will try to avoid the child that is unable to share, this can affect the emotional and social development of the child who is unwilling to share as they will feel lonely and neglected and even abandoned. 3.
If they had low self-esteem this could mean that the child/ young person may be facing further abuse in their parenthood as they are very defenseless. If someone has been abused from a child it may mean that they could possibly never reach their full potential. This would be due to depreciation that they had faced and possibly end up making them feel powerless to take on a role which would consist of obligation. Not being able to have relationships with people in the future, making friends as a child and finding a husband/partner once in parenthood. Self-harm would make the service providers very mistrustful as the pain imposed on them by themselves is showing as the pain they are facing at some other point with someone else.
People who are losing both hearing and vision will find it difficult to look for clues. There’s a need form a person with sensory impairment to have written, spoken or signed information accessible to them. People need to be able to carry on their everyday life’s as long as possible and losing one of their senses could have a detrimental effect on their dignity and confidentiality .People with hearing loss may need information that is not written and this could be difficult for a person if the information is not in suitable format. Not having access to information could impact on familiar layout, routines and mobility. 1.2 Steps that can be taken to overcome factors that have a negative impact on individuals with
Friendships in Early Childhood Friendships among Children The purpose of this paper is to explore social emotional development of children.
