The document discusses the Children Act 1989 and the principles and factors courts consider when making decisions about a child's upbringing. The three principles are: 1) the paramountcy principle where the child's welfare is the top priority; 2) the no order/non-intervention principle where the court only makes orders if necessary; and 3) avoiding delay in decisions. The seven factors courts examine are the child's wishes, needs, potential changes, harm risks, characteristics, parents' capabilities, and available court powers. There is a debate between prioritizing the child's welfare versus autonomy as their rights increase. Overall, the document outlines the framework courts

AfUE The Scottish Approach to Evidence Jan 2017Pippa Coutts
There is an emergent Scottish approach to public policy characterized by an outcomes-based framework, prevention, participation, and partnership. While intentions of this approach may not always be matched by implementation, it seeks to put citizens at the heart of policy and emphasize solutions to complex issues. However, the evidence base has not fully caught up with this policy direction in Scotland. For evidence to support the Scottish approach, more investment is needed in outcomes-focused, collaborative research and ensuring decision-makers have access to a mix of high-quality evidence sources. Overall, Scotland is well-positioned to develop world-leading approaches to evidence that align with its preventative and participatory policy focus.

This document proposes replacing silicon implants currently used in facial reconstruction and cosmetic surgery with 3D printed artificial bone grafts. It notes the global cosmetic implant market is projected to reach $9.29 billion by 2020. The "gold standard" silicone implants have issues with rejection rates of 1 in 7-9 patients and complications from impacts. The proposal aims to use a novel hydroxyapatite scaffold material called ALBO-OS that has proven superior to Bio-Oss in studies. Main advantages over silicone include virtually no rejection rate, ability to integrate into bone, and remodeling into living tissue. The project team has successful results and top equipment to develop these 3D printed bone grafts.

Amelia is a 14-year-old girl whose mother recently died and whose father left at a young age. She now lives with her elderly grandmother. Amelia used to be a good student with many friends, but since her mother's death her grades have declined, she has become withdrawn, and her peers now avoid her. Her lack of social support from friends and family is negatively impacting her development. Research shows that peer acceptance is important for social-emotional development, and rejection can lead to long-term problems. Amelia's situation exemplifies how traumatic life events and loss of social relationships can disrupt an individual's development.

The family client is made up of a father, mother, and their son, a ten-year-old boy. The family is biracial and is made up of four people; father, mother, a ten-year-old son, and a seven-year-old daughter. Initially, they had visited the clinic on a referral basis from the family’s psychiatrist. They had concerns with the behavioral issues their ten-year-old son exhibited while at home as well as at school. The son is currently in fifth grade and attends a public school, the mother runs a local coffee shop in their neighborhood, and the father is a construction worker. The mother was talkative and soon started talking about stressors in life, including their son’s behavioral issues. She states that besides receiving services and extra help her son gets while at school, he is still lagging behind. The exact services had not been explained. The father did not talk much. In fact, he sat away from the family and always displayed a sarcastic grin on his face every time the mother complained. The son was friendly but did not talk much.
After assessments and evaluations, diagnostic evaluations established that the kid had ADHD. In addition to this, the family displayed tendencies of dysfunctional interactions. Once the family unit was mentioned, the mother was quick to state that she believes that there was an issue with the way the whole family functioned. She further suggested that they needed help as a family to understand their situation better as we as know why their son was having behavioral issues. Family therapy was suggested. Everyone but the father readily consented to the suggestion. He later on consented.
Over the past two sessions, the father seemed uncomfortable and hardly participated. He would once in a while tell his wife to shut up when confronted and criticized. The mother always brought up her dissatisfaction with the way her husband lacked warmth and concern for their son’s issues. She felt that the whole burden of raising their kids was on her. She further stated that without him interfering, the son would soon influence their younger daughter, which was already happening. The son spent much of the time stooped over the table due to attention being always on him. He was always silent and uncomfortable.
Interactions between the clients were more complicated than anticipated, and too much time was spent on the interaction between the mother and the therapist. A therapeutic relationship was easily formed between the mother and the therapist. The other members of the family hesitated, with a continual alli.

Assessing Mood DisordersMood problems often constitute a pri.docxfestockton
Assessing Mood Disorders
Mood problems often constitute a primary reason why parents seek professional help for their children or adolescents. Most often, mood problems include irritability, sadness, or anger. A certain amount of moodiness and impulsivity is normal during childhood and adolescence; therefore, it makes it exceptionally difficult to diagnose children and adolescents with conditions such as clinical depression or bipolar disorders. One of the most challenging elements in counseling is objectively assessing whether a child or adolescent has a mood disorder. Cultural and family factors are one reason this is challenging. At times, these factors are directly the cause of the mood disorder or contribute to the stress or distress of children and adolescents. Therefore, it is important to use a systematic, objective, and dispassionate procedure for gathering data about children and adolescents when conducting assessments.
For this Discussion and subsequent Discussions, consider these questions: a) Where does the child’s or adolescent’s problem originate from, and b) Does the problem stem from the child or adolescent, or is it the family or other factors? By asking these questions, you can more accurately assess a child’s or adolescent’s problems and create evidence-based interventions to address the right problem effectively. Select a case study from the Child and Adolescent Counseling Cases: Mood Disorders and Self-harm document from this week’s resources and consider the child’s or adolescent’s presenting problem and where the presenting problem may originate. Conduct an Internet search or a Walden Library search and select one peer-reviewed article related to the interventions that might be used to address the child or adolescent in your case.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post a brief description of the presenting symptoms of the child or adolescent in the case study you selected. Then, explain one possible reason the child’s or adolescent’s problem exists and why. Finally, explain one evidence-based intervention you might use to address the child/adolescent in this case study and how it will be used. Be specific and support your response using the week’s resources and your research.
These are the Cases below choose one

Salena is a 16-year-old Native American girl who is a sophomore at a local high school. Her mother, who accompanied her to the initial session, referred her for counseling. During the first session, you spent about 25 minutes with Salena and her mother and then about 25 minutes with Salena alone. While you are interviewing Salena along with her mother, you observe that they appear to have a reasonably good relationship. Her mother is worried about her and primarily attributes Salena’s symptoms to the fact they recently moved from the Indian reservation to a more urban area. She believes Salena is having trouble adjusting to the new sch ...
This annotated bibliography summarizes several studies on homelessness and the parent-child relationship. The studies found that maternal mental health strongly correlates with childhood behavioral problems. Homeless children exhibited developmental delays and low language skills. Exposure to trauma negatively impacted children, but positive parenting helped mitigate these effects by providing structure and responsiveness. Prenatal depression led mothers to view their children more negatively, and socioeconomic disadvantage was linked to poorer outcomes, which parenting could mediate. Overall, the studies emphasize that homelessness poses risks to children, but positive parenting can help offset negative impacts on development and the parent-child relationship.
The child was abandoned at birth in China and near death from malnourishment. She lived in an institute until age 3.5, when a missionary family adopted her thinking she would die within days. At age 5, she was adopted by her current family. She is now 18 and graduating high school. She has autism and other disabilities. Her family aims to help her gain independence through therapies, community activities, and a future job. Her goals are to graduate, get a job, and live with her family forever.
The aims of Wisdom are to improve the wellbeing of young carers through communication, bring young carers together within one virtual space and provide young carers with the tools to help them take back some control of their own lives.
Ella is a 15-year old high-school freshman. She lives in a small sub.pdfartimagein
Ella is a 15-year old high-school freshman. She lives in a small suburban town with her younger
brother, Brody, and her parents, Minka and Bruce. In the past, Ella was always a straight-A
student. She loved school and had many close friends. She was actively involved in cheerleading
and drama club. Ella\'s parents report that over the last 6 months, Ella\'s grades have dropped
significantly. She decided that cheerleading is \"not cool\" and she does not want to be in the
drama club any more. She lost about 15 pounds and is often arguing with her brother and her
family. She does not like to socialize with her friends anymore and is always on the computer but
will not share what she is doing. Ella\'s parents recently reconciled after a 4-month separation.
Bruce was just discharged from a substance-use inpatient center where he was receiving
treatment for alcohol dependence. Her mother carries a diagnosis for anorexia nervosa but has
not displayed any symptoms for 5 years. Both of her parents have been actively engaged in
family counseling and individual therapy as well.
Based on this scenario, answer the following:
What additional information would be helpful for you to effectively form a diagnosis?
What theory of adolescent development would you use to gain an understanding of what is
happening with Ella? Remember, it is often necessary to consider and even apply more than one
theory when working with an adolescent.
How would you compare and contrast the development of Ella\'s issues from a cognitive, social,
and psychodynamic perspective?
Which theory best supports the behaviors that we are currently seeing with Ella?
Solution
The additional information that is required is whethere ella has gone for depression checkups or
has been detected with depression and if she has received therapies.
The theory is the ecological theory which tells about the interaction between indisvisual and the
environment.This is given by URIE BRONFENBRENNER.This theory tells about yow the
adolescents are influenced by family, peers, religion, schools, the media, community, and world
events.
Ella\'s case is the case of depression causes due to social anxiety as she doesnt want to meet
people and her family was seprated for 4 months. She is going through phases but it doesnt
include cognitive anxiety.
The theory of social cognitive learning is very important for her to understand the relations and
society..

The document outlines warning signs that a child may be bullied and provides guidance on steps parents can take if they suspect their child is being bullied, such as talking to their child, teachers, and school administrators.
The document summarizes key points from three articles about bullying. It discusses what behaviors teachers consider bullying, how teachers respond to different types of bullying, and factors that influence bullying. It notes that teachers are more likely to intervene in cases of physical bullying than verbal bullying or exclusion. Environmental factors like one's home life, peer groups, and classroom dynamics can impact bullying situations. The document concludes that bullying is a serious problem and that teachers need to intervene anytime they suspect bullying is occurring.
Lady Ludelyn Dancel was an adopted child who struggled with anger and mistrust issues. Through cognitive forgiveness exercises where she worked to forgive her birth parents for financial difficulties that led to her adoption, her anger diminished. As her trust in her adoptive mother grew, her overreactions in anger decreased. Medication also helped stabilize her mood. Developing a relationship with religious figures like Our Lady provided a sense of protection that reduced fears of abandonment. Ultimately, through forgiveness and support from her adoptive family, Lady was able to resolve her emotional conflicts and feel happy, safe, and content in her situation.

FAMILY INTERVIEW
The Parent of a Child with an Exceptionality
Wichita State University
Spring 2021

Introduction
As an educator, learning about our students and their lives is imperative to our jobs.
Every child comes from a different background, and every child and every background are
unique. Every family is different, and in order to fully understand the students in our care, we
need to also understand their families, (Friend and Cook, 2017, p. 267). One type of student
that I need a deeper understanding of is a student who has an identified exceptionality. A
student with an exceptionality is any student who has a disability or giftedness that requires
additional services in an educational setting. More specifically, a disability could be
characterized as limitations imposed on an individual including, but not limited to, physical,
cognitive, sensory, emotional, or learning limitations. In order to learn more about the family
life of a child with an exceptionality, I interviewed the mother of a student who is
developmentally delayed.
Methods
The child who I was interested in learning more about is a kindergarten student at
Gammon Elementary School in Wichita, KS. I was able to sit in on the student’s annual
Individualized Education Program (IEP) meeting, which was attended by the mother via Zoom.
After which, I was able to conduct my interview with her about her son. I met with her virtually
on March 16, 2021 for about thirty minutes. Gammon’s special education teacher joined the
2
meeting as well to help facilitate the conversation. I first started by acquiring some background
information about the student’s mother and their family.
She is a single mother, the father is, at the mother’s insistence, completely out of the
picture. She has two children, a daughter who is in 2nd grade, and a son, who is the
kindergartener and the focus of the interview. She is 28 years old and has lived in Wichita all
her life. She works for Phoenix Home Care and Hospice and is in the process of pursuing her
nursing degree and medication aid certificate at WSU Tech. They are a low-income, African
American family, and the mother was very shy during her IEP meeting and during the interview.
I was told that this is common for her and her demeanor. Having the special education teacher
present for our meeting likely made the mother feel more comfortable, considering that they
have an established relationship. Prior to the interview, the special education teacher
approached the mother on my behalf and gave her the consent form to participate in the
process. The special education teacher also went through the list of potential questions that I
had given her, and she picked out the questions that she thought would be appropriate to ask,
given the mother’s background and personality. The interview went as follows:

A Psychological Analysis of the film Precious
Most teenage girls wish to have parents who support them, boyfriends who love them,
and dreams of attending college in hopes of successful careers; but, this is not the case for
Claireece "Precious" Jones. Precious has dreams of being on the cover of a magazine, of dancing
in a BET music video, and of finding a light-skinned man to love her. While these dreams seem
reasonable for a sixteen-year-old girl, Precious's constant battle with oppression has hindered her
outlook on possibilities for her future.
Precious is sixteen-years-old, she has two children, one of which is experiencing autism,
and she is still attending junior high school. She reads at a second grade level, but she does enjoy
math. Her lack of proper grammar, reading skills, and writing skills may be due to the constant
stress she experiences at home. Her mother, Mary, is verbally and physically abusive; her father
raped her several times and is also the father of her two children. Precious lives in the ghetto, and
she and her mother are supported by the welfare checks Precious receives. Mary does not work;
she only leaves the house to play the lottery and make visits with social workers.
Although Precious faces adversity on a daily basis, she has moments when she finally
believes she is more than "ugly black grease to be wiped away" (Precious, 2009). Because of her
excellence in math, she is referred to an alternative school that will give her the proper tools to
earn her GED. She has a supportive teacher, Blu Rain, who is concerned for Precious's best
interest; she wants Precious to finish school to set a good example for her children. Mrs. Weiss, a
social worker at the welfare office, also supports Precious by ensuring she finds the answers
behind Mary's negative attitude and actions toward Precious. While Precious wants to be
comfortable enough to sit at the front of her classes, wants to develop a positive relationship with
her mother, and wants a strong male figure in her life, her circumstances encourage her anxiety,
depressive symptoms, aggression, and feelings of loneliness.
3. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 3
In the final visit with Mrs. Weiss, Precious learns about how her sexual abuse with her
father initiated. Her father was more attracted to Precious than Mary. Mary remembers her
boyfriend reaching over and touching Precious while they were intimate; at this point Precious
was only three years-old. Mary expresses that she wanted her boyfriend to stop touching
Precious, but, during the moment, her boyfriend said it would be good for Precious. Mary
believed him, and this led to him abusing Precious throughout her entire childhood. Mary was
jealous of Precious, and she believed Precious took her man; however, Mary watched her
boyfriend rape Precious multiple times and did nothing about it. Because of this, Mary gained
resentment toward Precious which led to physical and emotional abuse.
According to Harden, trauma and maltreatment during the first three years of life may
lead to negative physical, developmental, and mental health outcomes during adulthood (Harden,
Buhler, & Parra, 2015, pp. 266-286). Since Precious experienced trauma at such a young age,
she must learn to cope with the difficulties of her childhood in order to ensure better experiences
for her own children. As a community mental health counselor, I believe the best intervention for
Precious is the Nurse Family Partnership (NFP). The NFP reaches out to first-time mothers who
are teenagers, of low socioeconomic status, and/or single. This program constitutes home-visits
by nurses with focus on the mother's education and work, pregnancy planning, improvement of
pregnancy outcomes, and the children's health and development. Randomized trials show this
intervention effective through reduced rates of infant injury up to age two, reduced reports to
Child Protective Services, and reduction of risk factors such as abuse, drug use, and dependency
on food stamps (Harden, Buhler, & Parra, 2015, pp. 266-286). I believe that Precious will
benefit from this intervention because she will have a better support system from the nurses than
4. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 4
what she would have from Mary. Precious will be able to ensure her children's safety and will
have a better chance of promoting her children's physical and mental growth.
Precious clearly shows anxiety when in the classroom. Before she began attending the
alternative school, Each One, Teach One, Precious sat at the back of the classroom, and she
rarely participated in classroom discussions. On Precious's first day at Each One, Teach One she
was hesitant to walk into the classroom. Ms. Rain had to persuade Precious to join the rest of the
class, and when asked to share information about herself with her classmates, Precious initially
requests to skip her turn. Once Ms. Rain attempts to begin discussion, Precious interrupts and
wants to give her introduction. She states that she is only at the alternative school because she
had "problems" at her previous school-- she was expelled because she was pregnant for the
second time. She also indicates that she does not believe she is good at anything other than
cooking. Finally, she admits that she has never talked in class before and that she feels "here"
while she is in Ms. Rain's classroom. Precious's anxiety in school may be due to the emotional
abuse she experiences at home. Mary constantly tells Precious that she is stupid and that she is
not capable of learning anything.
Based on a meta-analytic review, researchers believe children who experience abuse
and/or neglect tend to have a lower language comprehension when compared to peers who report
not experiencing abuse or neglect (Sylvestre, Bussieres, & Bouchard, 2015, pp. 47-58). I believe
the best intervention to assist Precious with her anxiety is the CALM intervention. This
intervention entails a school nurse having 30-minute individual sessions with Precious over an
eight-week period. During these sessions Precious will speak with the nurse about anxiety-
provoking events, and she will work through cognitive behavioral strategies to help with her
anxiety. Research shows the CALM intervention is effective by having children calm down
5. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 5
using relaxation methods, recognizing actions that will help reduce anxiety, listening to scary
thoughts and turning them into rational thoughts, and managing problems using problem-solving
strategies (Drake, Stewart, Muggio, & Ginsburg, 2015, pp. 121-131). This intervention will help
Precious become more confident in school, and it will also assist her cope with other anxiety-
provoking events.
Precious has been neglected her entire life. Between her father not being around unless he
needs sexual pleasure and her mother showing hatred toward her, Precious does not have a stable
environment with support, understanding, or feelings of love from attachment figures. When
Precious returns home from giving birth to her second child, Mary initially seems concerned. She
asks Precious where she has been and she asks to hold the baby. Once Mary has the baby in her
arms, she immediately shows her predicted character. She tells Precious to go get her a drink,
and then she tosses the baby onto the ground and begins yelling at Precious stating that she has
ruined her life, taken her man, and gotten her off of welfare. Precious throws Mary against a
wall, picks up her baby, and leaves; however, while running down the stairs, Precious tumbles
with her baby in her arms. Shortly after, while Precious is still on the ground, Mary throws a
television down the staircase, which Precious and her baby are able to dodge. The neglect
Precious is facing may be leading to the depressive symptoms she exposes: anxiety, weight gain,
agitation, sadness, and feelings of hopelessness.
Neglect from attachment figures throughout childhood increases the risk of maladaptive
thoughts and behaviors throughout adolescence and adulthood. Daniel asserts that neglect is
damaging to children's physical, cognitive, emotional, and behavioral development (2015, pp.
82-94). Although researchers are still attempting to find the best intervention for helping children
who experience neglect, I believe Haddon's Matrix is a good intervention method for Precious
6. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 6
and her children. Haddon's Matrix entails a table expressing the host, agent, and environmental
factors of multiple situations, including child neglect; this model provides a foundation for
recognition and intervention of child maltreatment (Scott, Lonne, & Higgins, 2016, pp. 408-419).
This model has three levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary. I believe the tertiary prevention
best fits Precious's needs. Haddon's Matrix of tertiary intervention addresses children who are
victims of abuse and provides coping strategies (Scott et al., 2016, pp. 408-419). I advise
Precious to use the trauma based therapy, educational and training support, and remedial
parenting skills training this model provides to help her move beyond the setbacks of her neglect
and prevent possibly neglecting her own children in the future.
Precious has built a lot of anger over the years. While Precious is still attending public
school, she has a physical encounter with one of her classmates. In her favorite class, math, one
of her classmates was being disruptive despite the teacher demanding him to stop. When the
student continues to be disruptive to the classroom and disrespectful toward Precious's favorite
teacher, she pushes her classmate. Precious shows more physical aggression during class at the
alternative school. One day the students were asked to take turns writing letters of the alphabet
on the chalkboard. When it was Precious's turn, she was supposed to write the letter "f;" once she
does this, one of her classmates comments, "'f' for fat." Because of this, Precious hits her
classmate for humiliating her. In the final meeting with Mary, Precious, and Mrs. Weiss, Mary
expresses her want to have a better relationship with Precious and her grandchildren. Mary
attempts to reminisce on past events that were "good" between her and Precious; however, Mary
does not even know when Precious was born. Mary says that Precious was born on a nice
summer day when, in fact, Precious was born in November. This is a major indicator to Precious
7. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 7
that she needs to stay away from Mary. Precious shows emotional aggression when she walks
away from the meeting saying she does not want to see her mother again.
Precious receives relational aggression from Mary. Mary shows manipulative behaviors
such as social alienation and rejection; however, Precious shows the same aggression towards
Mary. Precious states her home-life would be better if she had her own television so she can
prevent having to watch shows with Mary. She also shows rejection when Mary confronts
Precious about her father dying from the HIV/AIDS virus. Mary asks Precious when she is
coming home from the advancement house, and Precious walks away without saying anything.
According the Splett, relational aggression is more prevalent in girls; however, nearly
50% of children in middle school report being victims of relational aggression (Splett, Maras, &
Brooks, 2015, pp. 2250-2261 ). I believe the best intervention to assist Precious with her
aggressive tendencies is Analog Therapy Sessions. These sessions allow clients to release anger
they may have from attachment difficulties. Analog Therapy has four strategies that are followed
in order: joining, empathic focus on anger, relational reframe, and empty chair (Narkiss-Guez,
Zichor, Guez, & Diamond, 2015, pp. 44-56). The first stage, which lasts roughly five minutes,
allows the client and counselor to form rapport. During the empathic focus stage, I will focus on
the events that lead to Precious's anger. The third stage will allow me to shift focus from the
causes of Precious's anger to the feelings she has regarding the consequences of her behaviors.
During the empty chair stage I will allow Precious to imagine her mother sitting in an empty
chair and express her vulnerable emotions that she elicited during the relational reframe stage.
Although the emphatic focus stage, relational reframe stage, and empty chair stage may all be
done separately, studies show the best result of reduced sadness and anger intensity occurs when
8. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 8
all stages happen within the same session. (Narkiss-Guez et al., 2015, pp. 44-56). I believe this
intervention will help Precious think of the consequences of her actions before lashing out.
Although Precious seems to be growing into an independent and strong-minded woman,
she is rarely seen interacting with peers. Between being bullied and not being able to connect
with her classmates, she feels alone quite often. Underwood states that children and adults,
usually, tend to bully others because they have a strong want for belonging (Underwood &
Ehrenreich, 2014, pp. 265-270); however, I do not think this was the case when Precious was
pushed on the ground, while pregnant, because she did not pay any attention to a group of men
trying to get her attention. In order to help their children learn to deal with bullying, parents must
understand the situation and have a genuine interest in preventing future bullying (Kolbert,
Shultz, & Crothers, 2014, pp. 1-20). Mary does not care enough about Precious to be concerned
about how her peers are treating her. Therefore, I believe with the new friends Precious has made
at the alternative school, peer support will be the best intervention to help Precious face the
challenges of bullying. I think the best components of peer support are befriending schemes, peer
mediation, and active listening (Cowie, 2011, pp. 287-292). These components, combined, will
help Precious develop stronger interpersonal skills to defend herself against peers who constantly
attempt to destroy her confidence.
Although Claireece "Precious" Jones wishes to live a "normal" life, she must face the
difficulties of her socioeconomic status, her lack of confidence, and her damaged personal
relationships. Having support systems like Ms. Rain and Mrs. Weiss allows for Precious to gain
hope for a more successful future. I believe the interventions for Precious's anxiety, depression,
aggression, and feelings of loneliness through bullying will allow Precious to become more
9. A PSYCHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS 9
confident with herself, be able to move forward from past experiences, and, ultimately, be the
mother to her two children that she wishes she had while growing up.
