disorders, such as anxiety, autism, unintelligible speech all because of the overuse of technology(Rowan). Most children of all ages can be seen with some kind of smart device in their hands like phones and tablets. When a child is set in front of a device such as those it can lead the child to have a slower speech rate because of the way they affect the brain. When someone uses technology, it can cause the brain to develop slower because the brain is given nothing to focus on, its just a bunch of colors

ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny" (C.S. Lewis, 1952). One must truly take time and consider what it means to make a difference in a child 's life. Whether underprivileged, advantaged, or minority, all children deserve an outlet. Behavioral, social, and emotional disorders affect many children, and some never receive help. Every child deserves the opportunity to have a childhood; they must receive support in order to thrive and be successful. The origin of my passion for

A periodical titled “Journal of Youth and Adolescence,” makes it clear, based on a study, a child of divorce is usually seen as an equal contributor and deemed “joint partner” in the household (qtd. in Jurkovic et al. 1). This may include working at an early age, coming home to an empty house after school, and most of all dealing with the emotional stress of at least one broken hearted parent. As a child of a divorced family, an extreme amount of pressure is pushed into the situation. More often

logically by natural explanations or illogically by supernatural explanations. During early and middle childhood, children can generate both types of explanations. Logical explanations are produced by using one’s understanding of physics, biology, psychology, causation, and other observations. Magical forces or powers and sometimes divine interventions are used to explain things not as easily understood. The focus of this study is to investigate the likelihood that children are strongly inclined to

Raising a child Raising a child is not easy and being a responsible and a perfect parent is probably a very difficult thing to do if not the hardest thing anyone can succeed in doing. We all make mistakes, even the most professional people do. That is why it is very common for Adults to make parenting mistakes. It's normal to make mistakes but too many can take a toll in a child's future. Even though many people, like me, believe that is is nurture that affects the way a child will be in

“On your toes,” Ole yelled, at all his teammates. Ole is my ten year old son, who has been playing soccer since he was in first grade. He plays two seasons a year and we are on our tenth season. Ole has started showing leadership with his teammates this season. Ole's team shows him respect, he is a very strong player that has always has his teammates backs. No matter how tired he is, he is right there to help his teammates out. When Ole started playing soccer I would have never dreamed of

From this lesson, I would like to know the meaning of social construction of childhood. I am very familiar with the history of psychology and children’s literature. My grandmother used to live with us when I was a young, and she told me many stories of the past. For this reason, I am able to link the materials I study to the real world. The social construction of childhood is somehow new to me. Especially the way Postman (1999) expresses social construction of childhood. For example, he stated, “In

Summary The article, “Should children study in the summer holidays?” (Jackson, 2017) discusses the pros and cons of continuing a child’s education throughout their summer vacation. In favor of this idea was Vivien Stiles, a professional tutor for Kumon, who argued that studying over the summer would help children ease back into a full school year. Stiles continued to explain the program as a two day school week which teaches Mathematics and English. The average time it takes for each student to

Consequently, these expectations are wholly unrealistic, and has spurred a culture of year-long athletics instead of more financially manageable seasonal sports. Off-season training camps have become hugely popular, and parents fear that if their child does not participate they will get left behind. This often happens,though, many communities offer competitive sports to parents of young kids, but for those who can’t afford it, they start to feel left out of the community, and the children can be

kindergarten, playcentres, preschool, home-based care and childcare centres, "have a widening range of opportunities for independence, choice, and autonomy" （Ministry of Education, 1996, p. 51）. Adults should not ignore the importance of autonomy in a young child 's grow up process due to the critical impact of autonomy (Zhao, 2014). There are various definitions instead of a coincident understanding in the contexts of multiple countries and cultures. The regular understanding of autonomy refers to the independence
