Phil Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Hi I am trying to list al the positve factors that effect child development all i have got so far is *good diet *positive interaction with other children and adults * regular attendance at a childcare setting- with the emphasis being on regular attendance not whether they attend a setting or not * financial stability * placement within family is there any more? I have done the negatives and came up with a very long list so can this really be it? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rea Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I know Wendles has said 'being listened to', but actually knowing they have a voice and that they have a right to use it and then be listened to. I hate how people wont answer a child straight away because they are talking to another adult, a child doesnt understand that, but they will if you explain you are talking at the moment and you will listen to them in a minute. Adults can be very rude sometimes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
