Parental Involvement And Sexual Involvement

each parent’s ability/ willingness to encourage a close and continuing relationship between the child and the other parent

Much research has been done on the influence of a mother on a child’s well-being and development (Pougnet, Serbin, Stack, & Schwartzman, 2011). However, research has shown that an engaged and loving father can contribute greatly to a child’s cognitive, social, and psychological development (Bronte-Tinkew, Carrano, Horowitz, & Kinukawa, 2008; Duursma, Pan, & Raikes, 2008; Pancsofar & Vernon-Feagans, 2010; Wilson & Prior, 2010).

Over the course of an individual’s life span, one is seen forming relationships with several people in whom they find their presence an important aspect to their life. However, among these relationships, parent-child relationships are the most valuable, but also very complex. These relationships are built from a foundation of interaction starting from the birth of the child to their adulthood. Unfortunately, if this involvement is not present within a child’s life, it can ultimately cause them to feel neglected causing outrageous conflicts, behavior issues and emotional disputes. Parental involvement within a child’s life allows them to gain a sense of security ultimately increasing new learning of the child

is “establishing reciprocal relationships with families” (“Developmentally Appropriate Practice,” 1996, p. 14). There needs to be a two-way connection between teachers and the families of their students. This relationship should be formed through shared responsibilities, cooperation, trust and respect (Bredekamp, 2014, p. 88). The teacher and families of students need to come to an agreement on shared goals and ways to obtain these goals. This is done through open communication and welcoming parents to participate and observe the program so that they can help make appropriate decisions about their child’s education (“Developmentally Appropriate Practice,” 1996, p.

This assessment included the father engagement through telling stories, singing, reading, and other measurable indicators. The research also looked into the parent perception of the child, and the co-parenting relationship. Finally, the researchers controlled for variables, to mitigate suspicious engagement among the father engagement, mother-child attachment, and co-parenting. After controlling for disqualifying factors the researchers were left with a sample that was slightly skewed due to a larger than normal proportion of married/cohabitating and minority families. It is unclear what the impact to the overrepresentation of some groups may have had on the study. The methodology of surveying only mothers does leave room for criticism of implicit bias.

This week in class we had a class discussion talking about the impact of the child’s surrounding family-wise. We read issue 8 in Taking Sides and chapter 8 in Devlopment of Children and Adolescants as well.

Although the introductions were tiresome, when we continued reading, we found the content fascinating. For example, the articles stated the advantages of parental involvement and provided various benefits of it, which could be useful for our students. Even though, the writers presented a variety of aspects of the topic, since the topic of parental involvement in school is a very wide subject, we felt that the writers did not cover all the points of this subject in the

A child’s success is a parents’ success. Every parent wants their child to do well and hence when compared to the parents who actively engage themselves with their child; the academic performance of the child would be well above. But this cannot be true for all as it is sad to know that all parents are not educated. This research is done with Year 11 students and sometimes it is difficult for parents to engage and help their child even if they wish to just because the parents are not educated enough or the child is doing a different subject form what the parent is qualified in. For instance during the parent interview session, a parent is a Masters Graduate in Business and Accounts but his child is taking Chemistry, Biology and Home Economics.

However it does not mean the other primary consideration is not important: a “meaningful relationship” between the child and parents is nevertheless a key concept in Pt VII of the FLA as it is also referred to in the objects

The early childhood issue of concern I chose to focus on was father involvement. The article, Father Involvement During Early Childhood and Its Association with Children’s Early Learning: A Meta Analysis, focuses on the increasing concern of the importance of a fathers’ influence on children’s development. A father’s involvement includes the quantity of partaking in positive activities, such as reading and playing outside, and characteristics of parenting quality (McWayne et al., 2013). Within early childhood, ages three to eight, young children are faced with various developmental encounters that involve social, emotional and cognitive experiences within their school and home environment (2013). The article describes a study based on how a

The first element that would be articulated is that the fathers parenting quality has a significant and important role in early cognitive development and regulatory skills, even after maternal parenting quality is taken into account (Cabrera, Shannon, & Tamis-LeMonda, 2007; National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Early Child Care Research Network [NICHD ECCRN], 2004, 2008; Tamis-Lemonda, Shannon, Cabrera, & Lamb, 2004). This demonstrates that a father’s role is equally important as mothers, as this facilitates in cognitive development and the holistic development of the child (Malmberg et al, 2015). Goldman (2005), suggests that the greater father involvement in their child’s school and learning is statistically associated

The three parent child observations that have been documented will be analyzed using knowledge from class material and with peer-reviewed articles. Support will be given to show the connection between the articles, the class material, and to each observation. Each observation took place in a different location and each supporting article discusses how the actions of the parent and child relate to different aspects of a parent child relationship.

The researchers proposed three general questions within the article. These questions pertained to the demographic characteristics concerning over-parenting and parental involvement, over-parenting, and parental involvement in relation to the students’ college experience and lastly parental involvement, over-parenting and its relation to students’ responses to workplace scenarios.

Ocampo, he states, “According to Philippine Center for Public Education, 78 percent attended a parent-teacher conference. Parent involvement programs provide a primary way for mothers and fathers to participate in the educational process to engage with their children.” If it wasn’t for the value of family and education as a Filipino, I wouldn’t be the person I am today. They support me through the decisions I make to have a successful future. Overall, the value of family and education has kept me persistent to reach my aspirations in the future by the support given.

It is apparent throughout research parents have a high impact on the outcomes of adolescent emotional regulations and the behavior during adolescents (Feldman, 2011; Jabeen, Haque, & Riaz, 2013; Millings et al., 2012). Jabeen et al. (2013) states "parents play a crucial role in the social and emotional development of children" (pg.85). This part parent's play can be effected as stated above and the fluidity of parenting styles and their effects on adolescents should be observed. Through research looking at performance in school by Areepattamannil (2010), finds that supportive parenting yields higher achievement in school and is nearly as close in relationship to socioeconomic status.
