...is something that is more common now than back 50 or 60 years ago. More parents and schools are educating adolescents in sex education. When it comes time for parents to their sons and daughters the mother-daughter relationship is the most significant. As for the sex education in the public school system, there is actually a debate between public schools whether to teach sex education in the public school system and what to teach. In some states they have decided to teach sex education and some have decided not to Sex education has many significances in an adolescent’s youth and where they learn it and who educates them about it can result in good and bad outcomes. “Some evidence suggests that compared with Caucasian American Families, African American families may better prepare girls for menarche” (Berk). Mothers are known to be the parent to form that relationship with their adolescent daughter about puberty and sex. When mothers talk to their daughters the two things that the mothers mainly mention are marital sex and menstruation. Unfortunately, not all females have that family support when it comes to talking about puberty and sex. According to the book Family Relations, females who had no sex education were just as likely to engage in premarital sex as females with some background of education. When it comes to parents educating boys, wet dreams and masturbation were the two things that parents (fathers) decided to talk about with their sons. Wet dreams are a perceived...

Therefore, until the child feels safe and begins to trust and open up with the therapist the early projections may be that of their caregivers.

...single parent is a parent who lives with one or more children without the second parent. Usually the definition of single parenting depends upon the local laws, but there are other cases as well, for example if a parent is left alone after the divorce, after another parent just leaves the family or the child, if the second parent is put to the jail or is dead. It is not necessary that the single parent is natural mother or father of the child, some people choose to adopt a child or become a parent through artificial insemination or just take care of a child, who was left by his natural parents. The household of a single parent differs a lot from a usual household. Certainly all situations are unique, some people choose the path of single parenting consciously, and some are made to bring the child up alone. There are a lot of negative moments about single parenting, there are some positive as well. For example, if a person takes care of a child alone, he has always the freedom to choose and to make all the decisions on his own. On the other hand making decisions can be really hard sometimes and really often people feel the need for somebody’s support and a piece of advice. Usually single parents do not have enough time to do all the house work and thus involve children from the early age in doing chores. Single parents have to discuss most of house matters that should be actually solved with another parent, with their children like with adults. In case the other parent is alive...

...paper reviews the interrelationship among family structure, patterns of single parent decision making and deviant behavior among adolescents. It reviews family income and non custodial parent involvement. Patterns of family decision making and family structure both have a significant effect on adolescent deviance behavior. Data on the child’s behavior, the child’s life at home, and parental relation with the child are collected through self reports. Understanding the family structure can have an important role in the intervention and prevention of deviant behavior in the child. More parental monitoring was associated with less delinquency in a single parent household. We examine family structure including two parent families, single mother families, single father families, and stepfamilies. This paper addresses the implications of different theories and findings designed to reduce deviance. Single Parent Home Effect on Adolescence Deviant behavior among youth has increased in the United States (Steinberg, 1987). According to the Nature and Meaning of Deviance (2008), Deviant behavior is described as actions or behaviors that violate cultural norms including enacted rules and social norms. This paper will examine the social factors associated with deviant behavior among juveniles. It will explore the correlation, if any, between single parent homes and the rise in deviant behavior in juveniles. The two disciplines, Psychology...

Parental responsibility is when a parent or both parents are responsible the upbringing of their child.

...New York, NY. Mcgraw Hill. The social emotional development of the child plays a huge part of how the child will adjust to a school setting which will end up playing a part in every aspect of the child’s life now and as the child becomes an adult. The article shows us through various researches that there are several options on helping children from all different levels adjust. Having a high-quality experience in education, their social and emotional aspects of life will affect the children in a positive light and that child can be expected to live a successful life wherever they may go. In turn a non-balanced, stressful, and challenged child’s experience will not only affect their education portion of school but the social and emotional aspect as well. The emotional adjustment is a very important part of the child’s relationships with the teacher as well as the students. The child’s relationships will affect the whole educational process. Children who do not have a good rapport tend to have behavioral disturbances and educational downfalls. Those children commonly become our bully’s, delinquent’s, and school drop-outs. When behavior begins to go sour there are actions that the parents and school can take to reduce the downward spiral in the child’s life. Not often will the school and parents work together but when they do the results are typically at the top of the charts (Raver, 2003). Parents on their own can do a huge part of helping to shape their child’s social and...

This study is important to address to the public of the long-term affects of abuse and neglect in relation to such topics. The subjects surveyed are college-aged students ranging from ages 18 to 25. This survey is based on abuse or neglect from the subject’s parents or guardians at any point from birth to age 16 or 18.

...Abstract Various components influence the overall development of children. It is not simply the society in which each child is born and lives but certain and identifiable parts of the society. Although every aspect of child development involves genetics, environmental factors contribute significantly in the personality development of children. Subcultures of race/ethnicity, economic status, faiths/religion, and locality/region, in addition to particular groups such as friends and family distinctly affect each child. Throughout the lifespan, people constantly confront new or varying situations—both individual and societal—and need to understand how to adjust to these conditions. The most significant time of acculturation occurs during infancy and childhood, which establishes the foundation of every child’s future personality. However, whether one becomes an extrovert or introvert, a genius or average, enthusiastic or passive is contingent upon many unique effects and is not easy to foresee when a child is first born. Familial, associative, academic, and communal influence impacts one’s worldview—how one reasons, socializes and develops a sense of self. This research examines environmental influences—such as parenting styles and attachment; social economic status and parent stability; sibling positions and relations; neighborhood and peer groups, including school and mass media—on the personality development of children. The Role of the Environment in Personality Development...
