child development

Book Summary by: vohra    

Original Author: MImi khan
Role of parents - child development For a young child, every moment with a loving and engaged family provides
an opportunity for healthy development
. For a parent, every day brings opportunities and moments to engage and observe your child's ever expanding potential.
In the parent-child relationship, both parents and children actively contribute to the formation of their relationships. As parents, you bring along history and memories of early experiences with your own parents and family into the relationships that you wish to form with your children. In addition, each parent has a personality and character traits that affect (positively and negatively) your relationship and interaction with the child. While you, as a parent, tend to take the lead in creating the relationship with children when they are very young, children still play an active role. Even as babies, they begin to bring in personality to the relationship and work hard to communicate that. They exhibit unique temperaments and from the beginning, try to make sense of the relationships they have with their mother and father, and to develop their own mental representations of the relationships. The relationships develop a history from which children and parents anticipate the future.
