1.1 Identify the different relationships children and young people may have
There are many different relationships that children develop as they grow, babies know that they cry to get attention from their parent for food or just a cuddle this is the beginning of learning to build relationships. Every child and family are different in how they believe relationships should be made and who children are allowed to talk to or be around so everyone is different when it comes to who they trust or get along with. Relationships children and young people may have are: parental, carer, sibling, family, friendship, emotional, acquaintance and professional. Parental/carer is the relationship between the child and the person who is their main carer(s).
Sibling relationships relates to brothers sisters and in a lot of families in this era step-brothers and step-sisters. Family is hopefully the other members of each side of the parent’s family who are involved with the child at some point, in some families this is a very strong relationship due to religion or beliefs and in others distance or other reasons may mean that family are not around as much. Friendships, these hopefully are being built even as babies if babies are taken to groups to socialise and learn how to be with other babies and children. Emotional relationships are the ones that affect the child the most so if a parent shouts for one reason or another the child will feel upset as they do not like a person they care about raising their voice. Acquaintances can be anyone from the health visitor to the post person if they are a regular person who is seen every so often, my son has to see the bin men on a Friday morning and watch them empty our bins and say thank you.

...so very important as this can be mistaken. Explaining to a child or young person that if they do not get along with someone then they do not have to play with them or be near them gives them an idea about how to deal with situations that they do not feel comfortable in. Having books about stranger danger or about how their bodies are their own and not for other people to see gives children and young people the basis to understanding what is right and wrong for other people to be doing around them or to them. We could show short videos to the children with parents consent that explain the dangers of letting people touch you in appropriately or not to talk to people on social media as there are lots of resources for different age groups that I have seen recently on a SLP course.
3.4 Describe the circumstances that would result in a relationship causing concern and the
Relationships are the building block for personality and are significant in children’s ability to grow into substantial individuals who can thrive in an often harsh world. Constructing lasting and fulfilling relationships is an integral part to development as the interpersonal bonds forged are not only highly sought after but also set the ground work for all upcoming expressive interactions. Relationships and attachment go hand in hand as attachment is the strong and lasting linkage established between a child and his or her caregiver. Moreover, attachment significantly influences a large capacity of ones make up as it these first relationships that teaches morals, builds self-esteem, and develops a support system. The pioneers of Attachment Theory realized early on that human beings are not solely influenced by drives but that the earliest bonds formed by children with their caregivers greatly impact their ability to forge lasting relationships later in life. John Bowlby was first to introduce this theory to the masses in the 1950’s, and later Mary Ainsworth conducted further research to expand on Bowlby’s theory which proclaims that attachment is a “lasting psychological connectedness between human beings” (Bowlby, 1969, p. 194). The attachment bond theory by both Bowlby and Ainsworth focuses on the significance of the relationship between babies and their caretakers which research has suggested is accountable for influencing impending interactions, firming or injuring our capabilities to concentrate, being aware of our emotional states, self-soothing capabilities, and the capacity to be resilient in the face of hardship. Additionally, this research has provided a framework for assisting in describing these att...
Attachment, the product of nature and nurture, is critical to human development. Children learn about important aspects of their physical, emotional and social world through experience. The value of this experience is directly proportional to the quality of the attachment children are forming with their caregivers. Through the positive experience of emotional connectedness, children learn to build and maintain loving, trusting and secure relationships with others. If the caregivers are available to them, sensitive to their signals, consistently responsive to their needs, infants develop secure style of attachment. If the caregivers are indifferent or neglectful, inaccessible, unresponsive and unreliable, infants are prone to developing anxious, avoidant or disorganized attachment style (Pearce, 2009). Difficulties in forming childhood relationships significantly increase likelihood of interpersonal conflicts in adulthood. Anxiety disorder, PTSD, dissociative identify disorder, borderline, narcissistic personality disorder are dysfunctions that are linked to attachment insecurities. Interpersonal adult conflicts, such as divorce, family abuse, child neglect, sexual abuse, substance abuse are responses to emotional dysregulation caused by deep wounds in
Let us take a look at the most important factor that determines the health of our adult relationships; that is infant attachment. From the time that an infant is born, those around him influence the way a child will act or react in any given relationship. It provides a firm foundation upon which all other relationships grow. The idea is that the success of all relationships is dependent upon the success of the first one, namely, of the bond between the infant and his mother or primary caregiver (Brodie, 2008).
To start with an overview of social constructionism in very general terms leads to build understandings of child and childhood in a social world more explicitly. Notion of social construction is defined in diverse disciplines and instead of generating a description there are a number of thoughts. “It is sometimes called a movement, at other times a position, a theory, a theoretical orientation, an approach; psychologists remain unsure of its status (Stam 2001, p. 294)”. Vivien (1995, p. 10) points the origin of social constructionism stems from two to three hundred years ago in the period of enlightenment, modernism and postmodernism. By all means, Berger and Luckmann’ (1966) book The Social Construction of Reality as a first book have a title of “social construction” has influential contributes in recent studies (Hacking, 1999). In this book, questioning everyday life realities and giving examples from it, shows the importance of social relations and language that we used. Hacking’ The Social Construction of What? (1999) offers up-to-date and logical instances which supports to comprehend those aspects. He listed a number of things to be socially constructed and X as a generic label is used by him to work things as they are. First X does not exist or it is not generated by any natural thing then X existed by history, social interactions and with similar things. He discussed all too often after this process, using theory of social construction results in to change or destroy X render ‘normalisation’. Gender is one of the good examples that he gave which always come to mind whether it is constructed or not. Put it in a simple way, when X is gender; inequalities between men and women caus...
An infant’s initial contact with the world and their exploration of life is directly through the parent/ primary caregiver. As the child grows, learns, and develops, a certain attachment relationship forms between them and the principle adult present in this process. Moreover, this attachment holds huge implications concerning the child’s future relationships and social successes. Children trust that their parental figure will be there; as a result, children whom form proper attachments internalize an image of their world as stable, safe, and secure. These children will grow independent while at the same time maintaining a connection with their caregivers. (Day, 2006). However, when a child f...
No matter what, people form thousands of relationships to get through the ups and downs in life. To be frank, life would be pretty dull and empty without relationships. One of the most important relationships is the one that people form with their parents (Perry). Early family relationships are the foundation for adult relationships and a child’s personality (Perry; Greenberg). Alicia Lieberman, a psychology professor, said “The foundation for how a child feels about himself and the world is how he feels in his relationship with the primary caregiver” (Greenberg). According to Erik Erikson and the attachment theory, the bond between a caregiver and child has a huge impact on a child’s development because of social and emotional effects.
There are various factors to ensure that play is purposeful towards the children. Such as play needs to be pleasurable for children they need to have a strong relationship with the adult who they are with. Therefore having a key worker for each child allows the children to bond a relationships with them due to the fact that the key workers are with the children at all times therefore at the beginning of the day they are welcomed by their key worker and accomplish group or 1 to 1 tasks with this person therefore they are able to learn each other’s interest and engage emotions for one another. Therefore having a strong bond allows the child to open up to the key worker when they are feeling upset or overwhelmed with good news for example if
The most important social factor that people must have is the capacity to form and maintain relationships. These interpersonal and intrapersonal relationships are highly necessary for any of human to survive, learn, develop, grow, and love. These relationships take many forms, but the most critical relationship is formed at early developmental stage (mostly infant). This close interpersonal relationship that infants form with their primary caregiver, or parents, they learn most of social and emotional skills for later life.
People write books on how to raise a child, yet in reality every child is different and so is every parent. Some kids are born rebellious and others are born shy, and no book is going to tell someone how to raise a child because every child is different. In reflection of these situations children and parents must learn to grow with one another instead of basing their relationship off of others. Every parent/child relationship will only work if both sides are willing to change for the better of the relationship-- not for the better of themselves. If a parent is too in their child's business or too not in their business it can cause issues in their relationship.
The principles of building good relationships with children, adults and young people remain broadly the same across the spectrum. The building of relationships takes time and investment and should not be left to chance alone. Some of the principles that we might employ to foster and build up these relationships are as follows: Being polite and showing respect: Being respectful and listening to other people's points of view even when those viewpoints may be different from our own is a good way to build positive relationships. We might also consider being polite in both our manner and our approach ensuring that the other person feels valued by us.
First of all, I want to thank you for your email. I agree that our children need to have a healthy relationship with me that is comfortable for all of us. I truly hope for the sake of our children that you and Leigh are trying to change. The children love me more than words can describe. The course of the current and past events have been and continue to be horrible for our children. Lord, I know Leigh wants children and you want to move on with your life and are trying to have a complete family, but geezers this is going way too far and it is really unhealthy for our children.
A parent-child relationship is a special relationship that has a huge effect on the way that the child will turn out. This relationship is formed through pregnancy, adoption, and step parenting. Parenting requires a great deal of adaptation. The parents want to develop a strong bond with their child but they also want to maintain a healthy marital relationship and adult friendships. Potential parents often ask themselves what they will be like when they are parents and try to recall some experiences when they were children.
relationships can lead to a lack of the true sense of intimacy and trust. A child will isolate
Everyone is born into some form of family, with the family taking the responsibility of nurturing, teaching the norms or accepted behaviors within the family structure and within society. There are many types of families, which can be described as a set of relationships including parents and children and can include anyone related by blood or adoption. Family is the most important, “for it is within the family that the child is first socialized to serve the needs of the society and not only its own needs” (Goode, 1982).
There are so many different types of family relationships. Whatever form a family takes; it is an important part of everyone’s life. My family has played an important role in my life. Good family relationships serve as a foundation to interactions with others. Supportive families will help children to thrive. The quality of the family relationship is more important than the size of the family. Making the relationships priority, communication, and providing support for one another is key to developing relationships. Family relationships are what make up our world today; they shape the ways that we see things and the ways that we do things.
