outward
– Development proceeds at an individual rate.
– Development is interrelated.– Development continues
throughout life.

Child Development Theorists• Early in the 20th century,
physicians and social scientists began studying children and working out theories about their development.– Theory:

Families Meet Many Needs• Q: In order to become well-adjusted, productive
members of society, what do people need?• A: Family.
– Families are the supportive structure designed to take care of people throughout life.
– They supply what children need to grow and develop.• Needs:
– Required for a person’s survival and proper development.
– A family’s culture influences just how these functions are fulfilled.• Families fulfill needs that are emotional, physical, social, intellectual, and
moral.
![Page 16: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What are Emotions?• Emotions:
– The feelings you have in response to thoughts, remarks and events.
• Emotions are usually thought of as positive or negative, depending on the way they make you feel.
• In general, positive emotions, are thought to be good feelings; negative emotions, tend to be considered unpleasant.
![Page 17: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Providing Emotional Support• In a family each person feels many
different emotions, which isn’t unusual.• For the well-being of the family, however,
they key is to promote positive emotions and manage negative ones.– One way to promote positive emotions in the
family is through emotional support.
![Page 18: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Need for Support• Emotional Support:
– Everything that families do to help meet the emotional needs of each member.
– Examples:• Giving Sincere Compliments• Listening• Helping Ease Another’s Concerns
– Receiving emotional support from your family has many benefits, including:• Shaping Your Self-Confidence• Helping You Get Through Difficulties
![Page 19: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Developing Self-Esteem• One important role of families is to raise self-
confident children who see themselves as capable and of worth.– High Self-Esteem:
• People who see themselves as capable and of worth.
– Low Self-Esteem:• People who doubt their abilities and worth.
• Self-esteem is built on all the experiences a person has in life, but it is first shaped in the family.
![Page 20: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Handling Difficult Times• Families also provide emotional support to help
people get through tough times.– Handling problems is easier if you don’t have to deal
with them alone.
• Family members are usually the first to be there when something goes wrong.– Emotionally supportive families offer shelter from the
outside world.– People usually feel that they can be themselves in the
family.
![Page 21: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Creating a Family Bond• Emotional links in a family are usually lasting.
– A sense of belonging exists.
• Family members are likely to keep their interest in your life, just as you do in theirs.
• Within the family, people receive affection from each other simply because they are family, not because of talents and skills they have.– Ideally, family members accept and love each other
without conditions.
![Page 22: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Taking the First Step• Providing emotional support is a two-way street!
– One person cannot always be the giver and someone else the receiver.
• Adults need emotional support as much as children and teens do.– Closeness in a family depends in part on both giving
and receiving emotional support.
• You can show emotional support in many ways.– Good feelings come with giving emotional support as
well as receiving it.
![Page 23: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

providing food, housing, and clothing. • Family members also protect each other
by:– Providing Health Care– Setting Rules
![Page 25: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Building Social Skills• Families help people learn how to get along in
society.– Socialization:
• The ability to get along with others in society.
• Through socialization, people learn:– How to get along with others.– What behavior is acceptable where you live.– How to be independent.– What responsibilities you have to your world.
![Page 26: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Promoting Intellectual Growth• Families contribute to the intellectual development of all
family members, but their impact on the children is especially important.– The family is a child’s first teacher.
• Families need to be involves in a child’s formal education by:– Attending conferences.– Talking or writing to teachers and administrators.– Supporting teachers in their efforts.– Monitoring schoolwork.– Attending special events.
![Page 27: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Meeting Multiple Needs• The functions of the family are linked.• Even simple actions can meet more than
one need.• The methods used don’t matter as much
as making sure the love and consideration provide the backdrop.
![Page 28: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Needs vs. Wants• Wants:
– Desired but not essential.– Although your life might not be as pleasant without the want, you
can survive.
• Needs motivate family behavior.– An unmet need commands attention and effort until fulfilled.
• People must recognize what is truly essential for building a strong family.
• Helping your family recognize real needs and then meeting them is part of being a family member.
![Page 29: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
The Power of Families• Because families are the foundation of society,
they may change as society changes, but they are unlikely to disappear.
• Families have the power to make a difference– to individuals and society.
• It is this power that must be preserved and strengthened, and you can play a part in that effort.
![Page 30: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What are Values?• Values:
– Beliefs and principles that are based on ideas about what is right, good, and desirable.
• Individuals and families decide which values are important to them.
• These values may vary from one person or family member to another.
• Value System:– The set of values that you have.– How you spend your time, energy, and money indicates your
values. – Together, these make up your value system.
![Page 31: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The Impact of Values
• Some values have more impact than others.
• You choose your own preferences on which values will have the largest impact.
![Page 32: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
A Moral Code• Moral Code:
– Personal beliefs of what is right and wrong.
• Many choices you might make could have harmful effects for you or for others.
• Common values guide decisions and behavior in positive ways.– When these values are embraced, life is better for
individuals, and society is strengthened.– Common values are also reflected in documents and
laws.
![Page 33: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Learning Values
• Values are first learned within the family.• Families are responsible for their members’
moral development– by teaching values that belong in a person’s moral code.
• Families teach values in several ways, including:– Example– Direct Teaching– Religious Training
![Page 34: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Developing a Value System• Families provide the foundation for a value
system, but many other influences also have an effect.
• You values are tested every day in many ways.• Many influences affect your thinking in both
positive and negative ways.• It’s important to stay true to your core values in
your moral code.
![Page 35: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Guidelines to Follow• As you develop a value system, you need to be prepared
to preserve, defend, adjust, and strengthen you values.– Good judgment will help you.
• Guidelines to use as your develop a value system:– Follow the rules of society.– Choose right over wrong.– Learn from others.– Know what you value.– Contribute to the family value system.
![Page 36: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Acting on Values• Values mean nothing without action.
– First you learn them, then you live by them.
• No matter what you say, people soon see your real values through your behavior.– The same principle is true for the family value system.– A family has the responsibility to teach positive
values.• As a family member, you have the responsibility to help put
those values into action.
![Page 37: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

of all family ties; they last as long as the siblings do. – Siblings:
• Brothers and sisters.
• Sisters and brothers in a family usually have very distinct personalities, why?– Heredity– Environment– Birth Order
![Page 48: Children and Parenting](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081603/56813699550346895d9e2c5c/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
