When a child starts to develop, their family will take part in helping the child to learn. The starting point of teaching a child to use their five senses in order to help their brain develop to its’ full capacity. Another Job that parents have to take part in are keeping the child healthy. There are a variety of parenting styles, which can help shape a child Into who they may become when they are fully grown adults. Another major role would be developing child education, early, this will help cognitive placements.
Also, families have actively affect how a child develops through interactions and communication with the child. Family & Development A families Interactions can actively how a child develops. There are two different categories In which a child can experience early developments with, experience- dependent brain functions and experience-expectant brain functions (Berger, 2011). When a brain begins to grow, motor skills and the senses, such a seeing and hearing, will grow as well. When a child is placed within specific environments, the brain will help to counter what is surrounding them.
Within the bio-sociological part of developing, children can grow at familiar rates, and will also have a higher rate of survival when the parent/guardian helps to teach them to practice healthy habits, such as keeping up with shot records or annual doctor visits. Pigged has many other views on how family can affect the development of a child. Pigged has researched and studied how infants perceive their environments by the use of processing information and the intelligence of their seniority skills. Children can be shown a specific item by a person, and the child will be able to tell o what It Is they are seeing. Usually this Is done with a ball or a bottle. If a family communicates with the child, It will help with how they are developing language. The psychosocial theories on which parent’s help their children develop. Freud and Erickson state that emotions are perceived to play a huge role within newborn children. Bluntly, Fraud’s theory states that there two parts of development in regards to children, the oral stage (early childhood stage) and the anal stage (toddler stage), while Erickson theory is more based on what can be trusted and what cannot be trusted.
If a parent plays with their child, this can help develop a child’s social skills and connection (also known as attachment). Through this connection, or attachment, a child can start to learn, and begin to become independent (Berger, 2011). This can also raise a child’s confidence within more social environments. Other than playing with children, parents often use parenting styles to help teach a child. Styles of Parenting There are four main parenting styles but only three are used most of the time, the permissive style, the authoritative style, and the authoritarian style (Berger, 2011).
An authoritarian parent will set rules in place for children to follow. The parent will also evaluate the child’s behavior and attitudes. If a child were to break any of the rules that were previously stated, they would usually get a punishment with no explanation as to why they were getting a punishment. When parent uses an authoritative style of parenting, they will also, like the authoritarian style, use a set of rules, but they will be more orderly about it. This parenting style will let a parent be more concerned with what the child is needing.
A child under this parenting style will also not be unwished when they do not meet a specific requirements or expectations. Authoritative parents use more supportive disciplines instead of pure punishment, generally because they want the children to be more responsible and cooperative. When a parent uses the permissive style of parenting they are used more as a resource to the child, instead of helping them learn and shaping them into becoming an adult. They will try to not show any kind of authority over the child.
Lastly, the fourth and hardly used parenting style is the uninvolved parent. An uninvolved parent is exactly how it sounds. They raise children who become lonely and potentially depressed (Berger, 2011). Of these four previously stated parenting styles, the style that provides the most balance is the authoritative style. Parents using this style want to help them learn to become a responsible adult, while still setting firm rules. The parents will also use reinforcement to reward good acts. Aside from parenting style, cognitive developments are crucial for a child’s developments.
Cognitive Development & Childhood Studying cognition and education first started with Piglet’s research within his heron of the stages of development. Pigged and Weights are known for their theories of cognition and early childhood development. Piglet’s theory entailed that children could not begin to perform certain tasks until they were mature enough, psychologically (Berger, 2011). Hoosegows theory takes more of a social approach to cognitive development. Hoosegows theory entails that children, young in age, was more self-centered. He also thought that children were able to be empathetic every aspect of their developments.
Weights called younger children apprentices, while older children and adults were called teachers of society. Younger children, like apprentices, will learn from their mentors. It was Hoosegows belief that children can accomplish anything, with another person’s help (Berger, 2011). Conclusion To conclude, parents help a child’s brain develop, and also keep the child healthy. Parent and guardian interactions and communications help children learn language. There are four parenting styles, but one is rarely used, the authoritarian style, the permissive style, the authoritative style, and the uninvolved style.
The most well lanced style of parenting is the authoritative style because, the child will be allowed to comprehend why they are being punished. The child will also be reinforced with good achievements, and the parent will also understand how the child is feeling. Weights and Pigged both studied cognitive developments within young children. The main reason cognitive developments are crucially important are because they will help a child develop and learn. Reference: Berger, K. S. (2011).
