The document discusses family systems and trends in the US, including changing family dynamics and increasing diversity. It describes families as interacting systems and discusses factors like attachment, parenting styles, and child temperament that influence child development. Programs from the 1960s like Head Start aimed to support families and improve outcomes for children in domains like health, education, and economic stability. Current issues include third grade reading proficiency and ensuring all children have opportunities for optimal development.
This document discusses child development from birth through early adulthood. It notes that child development involves physical, cognitive, emotional, social, and language growth and can be influenced by environmental factors. Taking care of others, sharing feelings, and appropriate social behaviors are examples of emotional development in young children. Social development involves learning social skills through interactions with others.

Risk Factors for Child
Maltreatment
What is child maltreatment?
Any act or series of acts of commission
or omission by a parent or other
caregiver that results in harm, potential
for harm, or threat of harm to a child.
◦ Acts of Commission (Child Abuse)
Physical abuse
Sexual abuse
Psychological abuse
◦ Acts of Omission (Neglect)
Types of Maltreatment
Physical abuse – nonaccidental injury
inflicted by a caregiver
Sexual abuse – the use of a child for the
sexual gratification of an adult
Emotional/psychological abuse
Neglect – act of omission
◦ Physical neglect
◦ Medical neglect
◦ Educational neglect
Child Maltreatment: Etiological Theories
Many etiological theories have been proposed over the
years to explain the development of child maltreatment:
- Attachment theory
- Ecological models
- Research on specific risk factors
Each framework attempted to explain the specific
conditions leading to abusive dynamics within families.
These conditions may be associated with the child, the
parents, and the broader environment; each theory
emphasizes different factors
Attachment Theory
Attachment: any form of behavior that results in a person attaining or
maintaining proximity to another preferred individual perceived as
stronger or wiser
The attachment system is biological in nature, and is activated by stress
(environmental or relational). Its evolutionary role is protection
The attachment figure serves as a “secure base” from which the child can
explore the social and physical world
Children build “internal working models” of their own worthiness from
experiences of caregiver ‘s availability and sensitivity. These models also
guide expectations for future relationships
Attachment
John Bowlby: was a British psychiatrist who defined attachment as "lasting
psychological connectedness between human beings" (Bowlby, 1969, p. 194).
Bowlby shared the psychoanalytic view that early experiences in childhood have
an important influence on development and behavior later in life. Our early
attachment styles are established in childhood through the infant/caregiver
relationship.
Bowlby believed that there are four distinguishing characteristics of attachment:
◦ Proximity Maintenance - The desire to be near the people we are attached
to.
◦ Safe Haven - Returning to the attachment figure for comfort and safety in the
face of a fear or threat.
◦ Secure Base - The attachment figure acts as a base of security from which the
child can explore the surrounding environment.
◦ Separation Distress - Anxiety that occurs in the absence of the attachment

8.1 Problem Solving with Adults
Standard 1 of NAEYC's Early Childhood Program Standards and Accreditation Criteria (2005a) states, "The program promotes positive relationships among all children and adults to encourage each child's sense of individual worth and belonging as part of a community and to foster each child's ability to contribute as a responsible community member" (p. 9). The rationale for the standard is that positive relationships and a positive, nurturing, sensitive climate are essential for the development of emotional regulation, constructive interactions, and overall learning in children (NAEYC, 2005a). Children develop a positive sense of self, and they are encouraged to respect and cooperate with others.
However, problems, conflicts, disagreements, and distrust can—and often do—develop. These can occur between the family and the program, between staff within the programs—staff to staff, directors and staff, staff and consultants—and between children in the program. When this occurs, caregivers need to engage in problem solving. While no family or early care and education program is ever totally without conflicts and issues to solve, the goal is, firstly, to create an environment where constructive problem solving can take place and, secondly, to be able to constructively solve problems.
Feelings
Conflicts, confusion, and disagreements can cause intense feelings among those involved. To address conflicts and disagreements, we must try to determine where these feelings come from. In the heat of the moment, this will probably not be possible, but once we have had time to reflect, we need to look at the feelings that disagreements and problems produce.
We all have feelings, and it is very important to accept and appreciate these feelings. We need to reflect on our feelings and on why certain things make us feel a certain way. Feelings are complex, subjective experiences that involve physical and mental aspects of self—they can be felt, expressed, acted on, and thought about (Greenspan & Greenspan, 1985). All feelings have value and are useful—even ones we view as negative. Feelings are how we react to experiences, and they help us organize and make sense of our world. The great works of art, music, drama, and dance are based on feelings—some pleasant, and some dark and tragic.
We learn about feelings from our childhood experiences. When children are young, adults label the child's emotions: "That bang scared you!" "The dog's bark upset you!" Part of this socialization process is to help children know how to respond to the environment—for safety, to develop appropriate reactions to the environment, and to teach children culturally appropriate responses to their feelings. Other feelings, such as those of love, trust, fear, excitement, and surprise, are natural responses to the environment that help us feel good about ourselves and the social environment (Rogers, 1980).
Another way we learn about feelings is through social r.
The document discusses research on resilience in maltreated children. It explores how gene-environment interactions can help explain differences in outcomes for maltreated children. Specifically, it examines how variations in the gene that regulates serotonin levels interacted with experiences of maltreatment or healthy child-rearing. While maltreatment generally led to lower resilience, children with one genotype fared better than others depending on their environment. The research suggests genetics and environment combine to shape children's development in complex ways. Practitioners are encouraged to consider this research and apply it by fostering stable relationships and environments for children in their care.
The document provides an overview of a lecture on holistic social and emotional development in early childhood education. It discusses key topics like developmental domains, theories of social-emotional development including attachment theory and social learning theory, the importance of play, and factors that influence child development. The lecture emphasizes taking a whole child approach and recognizing how development across different domains overlaps and influences each other. It stresses the importance of secure attachments and supportive environments for positive social-emotional development in young children.
This document discusses social emotional development in infants and toddlers. It covers key topics like the importance of relationships in development, experiencing and regulating emotions, and temperament. Caregivers play a crucial role in helping young children develop these skills. The document also notes that culture and family context greatly influence social emotional development from birth to age 3.
The document discusses how children of different ages cope with stress. For infants, coping is dominated by behavioral rather than cognitive responses due to their limited executive functioning. Caregiver sensitivity and secure attachment are essential for healthy development and better coping. As children age into toddlerhood and preschool, their ability to regulate emotions and use problem-focused coping strategies develops slowly. During middle childhood, children can verbalize feelings and seek social support outside the family, with girls doing so more than boys. In adolescence, peers and siblings become important sources of support while parents still influence coping strategies. The family environment plays a key role in children's coping abilities at all stages.
The document discusses different parenting styles and their effects on children. It identifies four main parenting styles: authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and neglectful/uninvolved. Authoritarian parenting involves high demands and low warmth, while authoritative parenting involves high warmth, demands and communication. Research shows authoritative parenting leads to the most well-adjusted children. Permissive parenting involves low demands and high warmth, but this can enable misbehavior in children. Neglectful parenting involves low warmth and low demands.

1. Family factors like parenting styles, temperament, and family functioning can influence a child's behavioral development and risk for disorders like aggression. Difficult infant temperament may interact with harsh parenting to increase risk, though the direction of effects is debated.
2. Rehabilitation professionals play an important role in providing vocational rehabilitation services to disabled individuals who have the ability to work. These services include education, job training, and skills development to help participants obtain and maintain employment. Requirements include having a disability that limits employment and meeting age standards. Programs must meet regulatory standards to ensure legitimate, high-quality services are provided.
This document defines socialization as the process by which people learn the behaviors, values, and norms of their society. It discusses several key aspects of socialization:
1) Socialization is a unique human process enabled by language. It allows internalization of societal values and self-regulation of behavior.
2) Socialization is a reciprocal and dynamic process between individuals and their environment. A child's genes, temperament, and maturation influence how they respond to and shape their environment.
3) Socialization can be intentional, as when parents consciously teach values, or unintentional, through observation of others without a specific lesson goal. Both shapes a child's acquisition of cultural knowledge and behaviors.

EARLY CHILDHOOD TOPICS
Low Level Lead-Exposure and Children's Development
A local elementary school Parent-Teacher Association in a large urban low SES school district requested that you provide a presentation on the impact of lead exposure on child development. Specifically the group is interested in knowing more about how lead exposure impacts cognitive, social, and physical development in early childhood and beyond. Additionally the group is interested in any intervention or prevention suggestions that are empirically supported.
Autism and Theory of Mind
A group of teachers working in a special education program have seen an increase in the number of children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder within their school. They've invited you to talk about common features of autism spectrum disorder and how it impacts cognitive, social and physical development in early childhood and beyond. Additionally the group is interested in learning more about prevailing theories related to autism such as theory of mind and any intervention or prevention suggestions that are empirically supported.
Ethnic Differences in the Consequences of Physical Punishment
A group of professionals for Child protective services has requested a presentation on ethnic differences as they relate to physical punishment. Specifically, they are wanting to better understand the role culture plays on parenting styles and how this impacts children's development in early childhood and beyond. Additionally the group is interested in any intervention or prevention suggestions to physical punishment that are empirically supported.
MIDDLE CHILDHOOD TOPICS
Family Stressors and Childhood Obesity
A neighborhood center offers community programs for families who live in a lower SES diverse neighborhood. The center provides information on nutrition and healthy eating but obesity in the neighborhood children is major concern. The director has requested a presentation that goes beyond giving nutritional advice to increase awareness of the underlying stress the families are experiencing and how that is linked to overeating. Additionally the group is interested in any empirically supported intervention or prevention suggestions to help families manage related home-life stressors that contribute to potential childhood obesity.
Children with ADHD
The Parent-Teacher Association in an elementary school with a high percentage of African-American children has requested that the school provide a forum for the school community (parents and teachers) to discuss the increasing number of children who have been formally or informally labeled with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) within their school. They've invited you to talk about general characteristics of ADHD and how it impacts cogni.
Attachment And Children In Care 45 Slide HandoutBill Reid
Attachment theory proposes that secure attachment to caregivers in early childhood is essential for healthy social and emotional development. Insecure or disrupted attachment can result from factors like parental mental illness, abuse/neglect, and multiple caregiving changes. Children with insecure attachment are at higher risk for problems like difficulty regulating emotions and forming relationships. Providing stable, nurturing caregiving environments and supporting the development of secure attachments can help mitigate these risks.
This document discusses fostering resilience in children and youth. It defines resilience as positive outcomes despite serious threats or risks. The presentation objectives are to define risk and resilience, illustrate resilience dimensions in children and youth, describe recent research findings, and consider approaches to facilitate student resilience. The document discusses shifting from a risk focus to resilience, protective factors like relationships and skills, and frameworks for positive youth development. It also summarizes several programs that aim to develop social-emotional skills and assets to promote resilience.

ESSAY QUESTIONS
1.Identify and explain the significant steps of Early Childhood Development and include the relevant theories.
The development of a child starts with physical development before getting to psychological development. Physical development involves growth in height and weight. During the early stages, the girls are averagely taller than boys. One of the challenges in physical development is obesity, a health problem that is caused by diet, social characteristics, and genetic make-up. The psychological aspect involves growth in education, which is enhanced for all learners through systems such as special education.
The special education units involve providing the learners with differentiated instructions to facilitate learning at various levels. The early development stages require the support of the parents, especially the protection that the father offers to the children. Similarly, the development of the children includes dieting and the challenge of obesity among children can be addressed by ensuring that children access healthy meals.
2.Describe the challenges faced by learners in the early stages of development and suggest viable solutions to the setbacks.
Bullying at school and instability in the family set up can disrupt the learning progress and ruin the future of the kids. Bullying inflicts physical pain and injuries and scares the victims from attending school. This problem can be addressed by teaching discipline in school. Bullying is responsible for over 90% truancy in elementary and middle schools as students fear being harassed and they choose to stay at home. Children who are exposed to bullying might develop low self-esteem, while the perpetrators are likely to engage in crimes in future.
The issue of family disputes affects the children because they lack the required parental support. The challenge can be solved by listening and responding to their concerns. The adults might be well adapted to facing wi ...

Ironically, homelessness itself a kind of mental torture which automatically creates distress in a person's mind and bitterness about life. A person without having shelter feels uncomfortable; unsatisfied with his life that he cannot feed his family, even the state's policies are not fair enough to support homeless families. Here, in this paper, we discuss child homelessness which is a great threat to child health in terms of mental distress and academic performance (Vostanis, 1998). In a recent survey, there were 1.4 million children experienced homelessness worldwide, about 75% of children experienced homelessness by doubling-up with other families. On the other hand, 15% of children were in shelters, hotels/motels percentage calculated as 7%, and those were who didn't have shelter to live were 4%. The data has been collected from 2016-17 survey regarding measuring the child homelessness in all over the world according to which appropriate measures could be taken to ensure the provision of shelters, homes, education to homeless children effectively and efficiently. The data mentioned above is being reported from two sources, i.e. school districts required to report based on the number of homeless students they serve. In contrast, others belong to the consensus of federally funded homeless shelters and temporary housing programs conducted by the U.S. Department of Housing and urban development.
Child Homelessness Statistics and Survey
Furthermore, the most important thing noticed during this survey is that overall child homelessness affects the mental health of the children and their academic performance. They do not feel comfortable while studying with 13-14 other family members, unsatisfied mind creates mental trouble and become the reason of destruction in overall academic performance. The explanations behind vagrancy in this get-together are extraordinary: many are overcomers of local violence, four and the get-together moreover consolidates uprooted individual families, generally in U.S. Homeless young people are on a very basic level more plausible than everyone, or assessment kids in stable housing, to have conceded development, six learning difficulties, seven and higher speeds of mental prosperity issues (social issues, for instance, rest agitating impact, eating issues, ill will, and overactivity, and energetic issues, for instance, despairing, anxiety, and self-harm).6,8–10 Such issues are not express to down and out families.

The document discusses key concepts related to child development including funds of knowledge, attachment theory, ecological systems theory, and brain development. It emphasizes that a child's development is shaped by interactions within their environment, including nurturing relationships with primary caregivers that help form strong attachments. Early stimulation and interactions are essential for normal brain development and health outcomes over a child's lifetime.
This document summarizes key aspects of socioemotional development in early childhood, including emotional and personality development, moral development, gender development, families, peer relations, play, and television. It discusses theories of each topic and developmental milestones. For example, it describes Erikson's stages of initiative vs guilt and self-understanding in emotional development and Piaget's stages of moral reasoning in moral development.
Brain-Research, Attachment Issues and Sensory Integration(Revised).pptxMarhaKmbnAdilon
Brain research examines multiple disciplines to understand brain function and neural circuits. The brain controls important body functions and behaviors. Recent research shows children and adults process memories differently, with children creating separate memories rather than integrated ones. Glial cells, in addition to neurons, play a role in learning and memory in mice. High-quality early education is linked to later success in STEM fields. Increased neocortex surface area contributed to human intelligence, and disorders can develop when this does not occur properly. Live performances better engage babies than recordings. Math class improves brain plasticity in teenagers. Prenatal mindfulness and spanking may affect infant brain development and response. Working memory utilizes multiple synapses.
Attachment is an emotional bond between an infant and caregiver that ensures the infant's survival. Mary Ainsworth's "Strange Situation" experiment identified patterns of attachment including secure, avoidant, ambivalent/resistant, and disorganized/disoriented. Factors like parental responsiveness and infant temperament influence attachment. Lack of attachment due to deprivation can harm development, as seen in studies of institutionalized children. Child abuse and neglect are prevalent issues with serious psychological effects. Autism spectrum disorders involve social and behavioral impairments. Daycare can have positive effects but small differences were found compared to home care. Emotional development in infants involves recognizing facial expressions and developing emotions.
Child development occurs in distinct periods from prenatal to adolescence. It involves physical, cognitive, and social/emotional growth. During the prenatal period, the zygote develops into an embryo and fetus. Fetal development includes the growth of organs and reflexes. Infancy spans birth to 2 years and involves motor and language milestones. Toddlerhood from 1.5-3 years sees the development of autonomy and gender identity. Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development describes stages from sensorimotor to formal operations. Attachment theory proposes that early relationships impact later relationships.

“Dr. Amoroso’s fi fth book Cyber Attacks: Protecting National Infrastructure outlines the chal-
lenges of protecting our nation’s infrastructure from cyber attack using security techniques
established to protect much smaller and less complex environments. He proposes a brand
new type of national infrastructure protection methodology and outlines a strategy presented
as a series of ten basic design and operations principles ranging from deception to response.
The bulk of the text covers each of these principles in technical detail. While several of these
principles would be daunting to implement and practice they provide the fi rst clear and con-
cise framework for discussion of this critical challenge. This text is thought-provoking and

Federalist 51
To the People of the State of New York:
How shall we keep the necessary separation of power among the different parts of government? The only answer that is that the parts themselves keep each other in their proper places.
The separate use of different parts of government is needed to save liberty. As such, each department should have its own powers. The members of different parts should have as little power as possible in selecting members of the other branches. Ideally, this would be happen due to voters elect members of each department separately.
Such a plan would be difficult to carry out, however. Therefore, we must allow certain members of government to be selected by other ways. It would be useful to allow judges to be appointed by other government officials. Judges need special skills, so it is important that they be elected in a way that makes sure that only best candidates are chosen. Also, because judges are selected to the courts for life, they are less likely to be influenced by the men who select them.
"Power Is Divided"
Members of each government branch should be able to keep other parts from overtaking their power. The system should force individuals to defend their branch's powers.
In a perfect world, we would not need such protections. In creating a government that is to be ran by men over men, it must control itself. This can be done by separating and arranging the different offices of government so that each acts as a check on the others.
It is not possible to give to each part an equal ability to protect itself. In republican government, the lawmakers who make up the legislative branch will always have the most power. The cure to this problem is to divide them into two legislative branches. Each branch should be made different by different systems of election and different principles of action. They should be as little connected with each other as possible.
The division of power between the federal government and state governments offers another protection to the people. In the republic of America, power is divided between the states and the federal government. It is then divided again among the branches of each government. Therefore, government power is divided twice and can be controlled.
"To Guard Society"
It is important in a republic to guard society against its rulers. It also must guard one part of the society against the injustice of the other part. Different wants exist in different classes of citizens. If a majority is united by a common interest, the rights of the minority could be hurt.
To defend against this evil, we must make it unlikely that a bad party will gain a majority of support. The people should be broken into many parts, interests and classes of citizens. This will make sure that the rights of individuals, or of the minority, will not be in much danger from the will of the majority. The size of the United States, and the number of people under the same government, offers some prote.

Federalism Overview
: Considered together, Hurricane Katrina and Covid-19 both produced policy disasters in the United States that were both unnecessary and linked to federalism. These challenges produced by nature raise the question of whether certain disasters are beyond the capacities of state and local government.
Objective
: While watching these films, the central theme to take away from these videos is a better and more comprehensive understanding of Federalism, through real life evidence and explanation. Critically analyze each of the elements and consequences of each different national disaster, based on different level of government’s responses, actions. Leadership, communication processes, and decision-making. Despite, both Hurricane Katrina and Corona Virus being deemed as “national emergencies”, the power organization resulted in vastly different responses by each level of government’s leadership (across all levels: federal, state and local).

This document defines socialization as the process by which people learn the behaviors, values, and norms of their society. It discusses several key aspects of socialization:
1) Socialization is a unique human process enabled by language. It allows internalization of societal values and self-regulation of behavior.
2) Socialization is a reciprocal and dynamic process between individuals and their environment. A child's genes, temperament, and maturation influence how they respond to and shape their environment.
3) Socialization can be intentional, as when parents consciously teach values, or unintentional, through observation of others without a specific lesson goal. Both shapes a child's acquisition of cultural knowledge and behaviors.

Attachment And Children In Care 45 Slide HandoutBill Reid
Attachment theory proposes that secure attachment to caregivers in early childhood is essential for healthy social and emotional development. Insecure or disrupted attachment can result from factors like parental mental illness, abuse/neglect, and multiple caregiving changes. Children with insecure attachment are at higher risk for problems like difficulty regulating emotions and forming relationships. Providing stable, nurturing caregiving environments and supporting the development of secure attachments can help mitigate these risks.
This document discusses fostering resilience in children and youth. It defines resilience as positive outcomes despite serious threats or risks.

ESSAY QUESTIONS
1.Identify and explain the significant steps of Early Childhood Development and include the relevant theories.
The development of a child starts with physical development before getting to psychological development. Physical development involves growth in height and weight. During the early stages, the girls are averagely taller than boys. One of the challenges in physical development is obesity, a health problem that is caused by diet, social characteristics, and genetic make-up. The psychological aspect involves growth in education, which is enhanced for all learners through systems such as special education.
The special education units involve providing the learners with differentiated instructions to facilitate learning at various levels. The early development stages require the support of the parents, especially the protection that the father offers to the children. Similarly, the development of the children includes dieting and the challenge of obesity among children can be addressed by ensuring that children access healthy meals.
2.Describe the challenges faced by learners in the early stages of development and suggest viable solutions to the setbacks.
Bullying at school and instability in the family set up can disrupt the learning progress and ruin the future of the kids. Bullying inflicts physical pain and injuries and scares the victims from attending school. This problem can be addressed by teaching discipline in school. Bullying is responsible for over 90% truancy in elementary and middle schools as students fear being harassed and they choose to stay at home. Children who are exposed to bullying might develop low self-esteem, while the perpetrators are likely to engage in crimes in future.
The issue of family disputes affects the children because they lack the required parental support. The challenge can be solved by listening and responding to their concerns. The adults might be well adapted to facing wi ...

Ironically, homelessness itself a kind of mental torture which automatically creates distress in a person's mind and bitterness about life. A person without having shelter feels uncomfortable; unsatisfied with his life that he cannot feed his family, even the state's policies are not fair enough to support homeless families. Here, in this paper, we discuss child homelessness which is a great threat to child health in terms of mental distress and academic performance (Vostanis, 1998). In a recent survey, there were 1.4 million children experienced homelessness worldwide, about 75% of children experienced homelessness by doubling-up with other families. On the other hand, 15% of children were in shelters, hotels/motels percentage calculated as 7%, and those were who didn't have shelter to live were 4%. The data has been collected from 2016-17 survey regarding measuring the child homelessness in all over the world according to which appropriate measures could be taken to ensure the provision of shelters, homes, education to homeless children effectively and efficiently. The data mentioned above is being reported from two sources, i.e. school districts required to report based on the number of homeless students they serve. In contrast, others belong to the consensus of federally funded homeless shelters and temporary housing programs conducted by the U.S. Department of Housing and urban development.

Furthermore, the most important thing noticed during this survey is that overall child homelessness affects the mental health of the children and their academic performance.

The document discusses key concepts related to child development including funds of knowledge, attachment theory, ecological systems theory, and brain development. It emphasizes that a child's development is shaped by interactions within their environment, including nurturing relationships with primary caregivers that help form strong attachments. Early stimulation and interactions are essential for normal brain development and health outcomes over a child's lifetime.
This document summarizes key aspects of socioemotional development in early childhood, including emotional and personality development, moral development, gender development, families, peer relations, play, and television. It discusses theories of each topic and developmental milestones. For example, it describes Erikson's stages of initiative vs guilt and self-understanding in emotional development and Piaget's stages of moral reasoning in moral development.
Brain-Research, Attachment Issues and Sensory Integration(Revised).pptxMarhaKmbnAdilon
Brain research examines multiple disciplines to understand brain function and neural circuits. The brain controls important body functions and behaviors. Recent research shows children and adults process memories differently, with children creating separate memories rather than integrated ones. Glial cells, in addition to neurons, play a role in learning and memory in mice. High-quality early education is linked to later success in STEM fields. Increased neocortex surface area contributed to human intelligence, and disorders can develop when this does not occur properly. Live performances better engage babies than recordings. Math class improves brain plasticity in teenagers. Prenatal mindfulness and spanking may affect infant brain development and response. Working memory utilizes multiple synapses.
Attachment is an emotional bond between an infant and caregiver that ensures the infant's survival. Mary Ainsworth's "Strange Situation" experiment identified patterns of attachment including secure, avoidant, ambivalent/resistant, and disorganized/disoriented. Factors like parental responsiveness and infant temperament influence attachment. Lack of attachment due to deprivation can harm development, as seen in studies of institutionalized children. Child abuse and neglect are prevalent issues with serious psychological effects. Autism spectrum disorders involve social and behavioral impairments. Daycare can have positive effects but small differences were found compared to home care. Emotional development in infants involves recognizing facial expressions and developing emotions.
Child development occurs in distinct periods from prenatal to adolescence. It involves physical, cognitive, and social/emotional growth. During the prenatal period, the zygote develops into an embryo and fetus. Fetal development includes the growth of organs and reflexes. Infancy spans birth to 2 years and involves motor and language milestones. Toddlerhood from 1.5-3 years sees the development of autonomy and gender identity. Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development describes stages from sensorimotor to formal operations. Attachment theory proposes that early relationships impact later relationships.

established to protect much smaller and less complex environments. He proposes a brand
new type of national infrastructure protection methodology and outlines a strategy presented
as a series of ten basic design and operations principles ranging from deception to response.
The bulk of the text covers each of these principles in technical detail. While several of these
principles would be daunting to implement and practice they provide the fi rst clear and con-

Federal Budget Speech
"Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you."
- Thomas Jefferson
The federal budget spends close to four trillion dollars a year and is split between mandatory spending (what the federal government has to spend due to congressional legislation) and discretionary spending (what the federal government spends as a result of congressional allotment). Roughly speaking, mandatory spending accounts for two-thirds of the federal budget and discretionary spending accounts for one-third of the federal budget.
Every year the executive and legislative branches debate budgetary priorities for the federal bureaucracies such as the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, the Environmental Protection Agency, Veteran Affairs, the Department of Education, and others.

Federal Budget Speech
"
Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you
." - Thomas Jefferson
The federal budget spends close to four trillion dollars a year and is split between mandatory spending (what the federal government has to spend due to congressional legislation) and discretionary spending (what the federal government spends as a result of congressional allotment). Roughly speaking, mandatory spending accounts for two-thirds of the federal budget and discretionary spending accounts for one-third of the federal budget.
Every year the executive and legislative branches debate budgetary priorities for the federal bureaucracies such as the Department of Defense, the Pentagon, the Environmental Protection Agency, Veteran Affairs, the Department of Education, and others. Many of these debates occur within congressional committee meetings as members of Congress, federal employees, outside interests, and individual citizens articulate funding requests.

Creating and Capturing Value Through Sustainability
The Sustainable Value Analysis Tool
A new tool helps companies discover opportunities to create and capture value through sustainability.
Miying Yang, Doroteya Vladimirova, and Steve Evans
OVERVIEW: Recent research and practice have shown that business model innovation can be one way to create and
capture new value and drive production and consumption toward sustainability. However, business model tools typically
do not create a space to consider how sustainability concerns may be integrated into the innovation process. To address
this gap, this article describes a tool that can help companies identify new opportunities to create and capture value
through sustainability by analyzing value captured and uncaptured for key stakeholders across the product life cycle.
The Sustainable Value Analysis Tool is shown to help companies recognize value uncaptured and turn it into opportunities;
it facilitates sustainability-focused business model innovation by identifying value uncaptured—and hence, opportunities
for innovation—associated with environmental and social sustainability in production, use, and disposal.
KEYWORDS: Sustainable Value Analysis Tool, Sustainability, Business model innovation, Sustainability-focused innovation
In recent years, as companies have been challenged by
environmental legislation and societal pressures (Elkington
1997), sustainability has become a key factor in long-term
business success. As a result, innovation for sustainability
has received much attention from researchers and practi-
tioners (Nidumolu, Prahalad, and Rangaswami 2009; Boons
et al. 2013). However, although technological approaches to
promote sustainability have been thoroughly investigated
(Camarinha-Matos 2011), comparatively little work has been
done to understand how innovation in business models can
support sustainability across the product life cycle, including
manufacturing, operation, and disposal.
Business model innovation looks at how companies create
and capture value at every stage of a product’s journey to
market. While business model innovation has been the
subject of much discussion and research, very few tools have
been developed to help companies integrate sustainability
into the business model innovation process (Evans et al., in
press). Existing tools for business model innovation either
do not consider sustainability (for instance, Osterwalder
and Pigneur’s [2010] Business Model Canvas) or do not
address all of the elements of the business model (for
example, lifecycle assessment tools [Tukker 2000]). Thus,
sustainability considerations and business model innovation
are often not well integrated, with sustainability being
treated as an add-on rather than as a core source of value.
Considering sustainability in the process of business
model innovation can provide entirely new ways to create .

Hiring tiie Very Best
How to increase your employees' morale and productivity
By Tracy Mullin
Tracy Mullin is
president and
CEO, Nationai
Retail
Federation,
Washington,
D.C,
[email protected]
I
remember a quote from former ABC execu-
iive Thomas Murphy, who said. "If you hire
the best people and leave them alone, you
don't need to hire very many." While I think re-
tailers should be hiring the best people possible,
and treating them well, it may not always be best
to leave them alone. Especially during the holi-
day season.
With the holidays almost upon us, retailers are
scrambling to hire the best seasonal workers—
more than 520,000 of them—while retaining
their top performers. And during the most cru-
cial selling period of the year, there is no time
for mistakes. Executives know that good em-
ployees ean bolster the image of a store and
unsatisfactory employees can be disastrous.
More often than not. finding good workers is
high on the list of challenges facing retail exec-
utives. And keeping those people is even more
difficult.
Turnover in the retail industry is nothing new,
and it is not a problem that will disappear any-
time soon. After Sept. 11, many retailers experi-
enced low turnover as employees waited for the
job market to improve. Now that the economy is
back on traek, workers are keeping an eye out
for new opportunities, and many are moving on.
Statistics reinforce that theory: According to
the 2005 NRF/Mercer Retailer Compensation
and Benefits survey, released last month, turn-
over for store managers rose 20% last year over
2003.
Leading HR experts seem to agree that tradi-
tional approaches to management haven't been
working. Author Bruce Tulgan. a consultant
who spoke in June at the National Retail Eed-
eration's Loss Prevention Conference, talked
about the mind-set of the new American worker
and said that the best way retailers could keep
their employees was to find out what people
want and use it to drive performance.
Best Buy is one of those retailers. Nearly half
of the 3.500 employees at Best Buy headquarters
have embarked on a radical strategy that enables
employees to work where and when they
as long as their job gets done. The approach
seems to be working, as executives maintain that
this new program has reduced turnover and
increased productivity at the same time.
Other retailers, such as Costco, believe that
the way to their workers" hearts is through their
wallets. Costco's employees earn an average of
$17.41 an hour and receive some of the most
generous health benefits in the industry. Perhaps
that's why they are able to maintain a low
turnover rate of about 17% per yean
However, money isn't everything. In his pre,s-
entation, Tulgan also featured several non-finan-
cial elements, such as people needing to be sat-
isfied with their jobs. One of those basics, giving
employees control over tasks, is an area where
Trader Joe's has an upper hand. Instead of giv-
ing employees.

FEATURED ESSAY
The Ecstatic Edge of Politics: Sociology and Donald Trump
ARLIE RUSSELL HOCHSCHILD
University of California-Berkeley
[email protected]
The day before the Louisiana Republican
primary in March 2016, I watched Donald
Trump’s Boeing 757 descend from the sky
at the Lakefront Airport in New Orleans,
Louisiana. Inside the crowded hangar, Elton
John’s ‘‘Rocket Man’’ was playing. Red,
white, and blue strobe lights roved sideways
and up. Cell phones snapped photos of the
blond-haired candidate as he stood before
thousands waving and shaking signs that
read MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. A
small, wiry man bearing this sign with
both hands, eyes afire, called out to all with-
in earshot, ‘‘To be in the presence of such
a man! To be in the presence of such
a man.’’ There seemed in this man’s call, I
wrote in my field notes—part of a five year
ethnographic study of Tea Party supporters
in Louisiana—a note of reverence, even
ecstasy (Hochschild 2016:224). How do we
understand the states of mind and situations
of those to whom Donald Trump appeals?
How does such emotional appeal work?
Whatever Trump’s future, he has touched
a cultural nerve we sociologists need to
study. In this essay, I explore illuminating
works in and around sociology before ven-
turing an interpretation of my own.
In The Paranoid Style in American Politics,
the historian Richard Hofstadter (1996)
traced the relationship between paranoid
political rhetoric and ‘‘style of mind’’ as
these periodically emerged in the United
States through the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries. The leader expressing such a style,
he says, ‘‘does not see social conflict as some-
thing to be mediated and compromised, in
the manner of the working politician. Since
what is at stake is always a conflict between
absolute good and absolute evil, what is nec-
essary is not compromise but the will to fight
things out to a finish. . . . This demand for
total triumph leads to the formulation of
hopelessly unrealistic goals, and since these
goals are not even remotely attainable, fail-
ure constantly heightens the paranoid’s
sense of frustration. Even partial success
leaves him with the same feeling of power-
lessness with which he began, and this in
turn only strengthens his awareness of the
vast and terrifying quality of the enemy he
opposes’’ (p. 31).
Propelling such movements, he argues, is
not just economic deprivation as narrowly
conceived, but the loss of an older America,
inward-turned, Protestant, secure, busy
turning the wheel of a thriving local capital-
ism. As one of the original so-called birthers
(who questioned President Obama’s place of
birth and religion) and as one who has
extended this suspicion to Hillary Clinton’s
religion, Donald Trump fits in Hofstadter’s
‘‘paranoid style.’’ Still, Trump’s appeal
reaches far beyond the style of mind through
which it is expressed.

Abstract
Introduction:
Insulin-dependent patients are individuals with chronic disease who are well adapted to living and dealing with any health needs and fears arising. An important aspect in the process of adaptation to chronic illness is the provision of nursing care in the early stages of the disease, because this contributes to its acceptance and the early identification and management of potential complications.
Purpose:
To investigate the health needs and self-management problems faced by patients with diabetes daily, especially those who use insulin. Furthermore, purpose of this study was to investigate the fears experienced by patients in the early stage of the disease, but also in its subsequent development and to study possible differences between sexes.
Methodology:
This is a qualitative study, using interpretative phenomenological approach. Fifteen (nine women and six men) insulin-dependent patients, recounted their personal fears and their needs, through semi-structured interviews, which took place in Central Greece. The method used for processing the results is the Mayering one.
Results:
The analysis of the narratives showed that patients have a variety of fears and needs associated with the diagnosis, treatment, expected consequences, prognosis and everyday life in the management of the disease. Most patients express the concept of need as desire. Care needs, psychological support and education to recognize and prevent hypoglycemia.
Conclusions:
Insulin-dependent patients express fears and needs in their daily lives. Nurses providing care aimed at enhancing the level of health, while putting self-care information and training them. Patients want the nurse next to them, so that information is continuous and permanent.
Keywords: diabetes mellitus, fears, health needs, self-care, nursing care

1. INTRODUCTION
Patients with type II diabetes, especially insulin-dependent are usually suffering from diabetes several years before the initiation of insulin therapy. Treatment of diabetes has now as a central character, the patient himself who co-decides with the physician-nurse team. The primary concern is the patient’s acceptance of the disease in the early stages and his gradual familiarization with the treatment (1).
According to International Diabetes Federation, at least 285 million people worldwide have diabetes and this number is expected to increase to 438 million by 2030, with two-thirds of all cases living in low or middle income countries (2, 3).
Apart from pharmaceutical care, the nurse also pr.
Featherfall has recently violated several government regulations.docxmglenn3
Featherfall has recently violated several government regulations regarding the current state of its technology and how it is being used. The technology system is vastly out of date, and staff are not always using the technology that is in place or they are using the technology inappropriately. These problems have lost the institution lots of money for not meeting government regulations and have caused operational and ethical problems from inefficient and ineffective use of technology.
The staff at Featherfall are not well-trained on the use of technology and do not communicate appropriately about technology use. The roles that pertinent to your consult are the health information management team, the clinical staff (doctors, nurses, etc.), and administrative staff. The health information management team uses proper coding practices, and the current technology system serves them well, despite its age. However, other roles in the hospital have had issues with the system. Clinical staff, for instance, have had record-keeping issues both due to lack of training on the system and the system itself being out of date. Administrative staff within the organization have taken issue with the lack of communication about the technology and its use between the various roles. When the current technology system was chosen many years ago, the needs of these various roles were not considered.

By Farhad Manjoo
Over the summer, my wife and I traveled with our two young kids on a two-week
vacation through Europe.
It wasn’t as highfalutin as it sounds. In London, our Airbnb had ample skylights —
which rendered the place all but uninhabitable during Europe’s heat wave. In Paris, our
charming home-share had a cavernous hole in the ceiling of the entryway, revealing
load-bearing beams that appeared to have been rotting since Napoleon’s reign. And in
Amsterdam, our Airbnb advertised a kids’ bedroom stocked with toys — but failed to
mention the mosquitoes and mice.
I’m not complaining. If travel mishaps are the stuff of memory, my vacation was
unforgettable. And without home-sharing services like Airbnb, review sites like
TripAdvisor and conveniences like Uber, OpenTable and Expedia, the trip would have
been far more expensive, less accessible and, in a strange way, less authentic.
But my tech-abetted trip was illuminating, too, because it provided a firsthand look into
a vexing problem that has gripped much of Europe lately — the worry of “overtourism,”
and the rising chorus that blames technologies like Airbnb, Uber and other internet-
enabled travel conveniences for the menace.
Every summer, the most popular European destinations get stuffed to the gills with
tourists, who outnumber locals by many multiples, turning hot spots into sweaty, selfie-
stick-clogged, “Disneyfied”towns. They offer a taste of a growing global threat: Across
the world, thanks in part to rising affluence, travel is becoming a more widely shared
pastime. International trips were up 6 percent in the first half of the year, surpassing
experts’ forecasts, according to the United Nations’ World Tourism Organization.
This growth might once have been considered unambiguously good news. But the
world’s most popular destinations cannot expand to accommodate an infinite flood of
visitors. Advocates of curbing tourism say too many visitors are altering the character of
historic cities, and making travel terrible, too.
“It’s a level of tourism which is degrading the enjoyment that residents have, but it’s also
degrading the tourist experience, because the tourist who is endlessly queuing behind
backpacks of hundreds of other tourists is not discovering the real or the authentic
place,” said Justin Francis, the chief executive of Responsible Travel, a company that
arranges “sustainable” travel for customers.
What’s to blame? In addition to broad prosperity, there’s technology, defined very
broadly.

Feasibility Report
MEMO
TO: Manager
FROM:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
This memo is meant for introducing the feasibility report that aims at providing a solution to the cases and nation problems about the cybercrime and the potential proposed solution to curb up the challenge. These feasibilities we are identified by studying various critical factors such as the social effects, legal issues, technical problems, and the economic impact. Therefore, this memo is very vital for an individual to read and understand various aspects.
Feasibility Report
It takes much time in planning and preparing to implement a solution to the major problem in society. During the planning and preparation process, the proposed solution should be tested and determined if it is feasible to provide the solution or not. Cybercrime in united states has been a significant problem and need to be addressed and solution provided to reduce the cybercrime.
One of the proposed solutions to this major problem is providing cybersecurity among very individual. This will enable most of the people to understand and know the importance of cybersecurity and thus leading to the reduction of the negative loses that is caused by the cybercrime in society every year. Another thing that will ensure that the individuals in the nation are protected from the impact of the cybercrime is educating them on ways they can protect themselves over the cybercrime attempts.
This report will majorly focus on looking at the proposed solution provided and determine if the answers are feasible or need some changes. The essential aspects that the story will focus on include the social impact, the economic effect, and other elements which will be determined if it can provide a solution to the problem.
The Social Impact
When looking for a potential solution to be implemented to solve a specific major problem in society, a positive impact is always the main objective. When the proposed solution is applied, such as implementing cybersecurity in the daily lives of the individuals in the society it will bring a lot of positive impacts on them. For instance, when the cybersecurity is made the main focus in the in every place, i.e. schools and workplace, majority of the individuals will be aware of these threats and ways of preventing them from affecting their daily lives. This will also reduce the loss that most of the individuals incur due to the cybercrime and lack of security in their day-to-day business operations (Help Net Security, 2015).
When the cybersecurity is introduced in society It will bring much social impact to the life of the individuals since it will educate people about the dynamic changes that occur in uses of the technology. When this provides a solution to the cybercrime problem in the society, it will be adopted by every nation, and thus the cybercrime problem is reduced and making every country secure and safe from the cybercrime prob.

Attachment
By the second half of the first year, babies have become
attached to familiar people who respond to their needs.
Attachment is built by satisfying:
Primary drive: hunger
Secondary drive: comfort and security
Harlow’s experiment, 1959
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_O60TYAIgC4
Attachment relationships have four main features.
A sense of security
A safe haven
Proximity maintenance
Separation distress
proximity maintenance. Since children rely on their caregiver
5. for comfort when they feel unsure or threatened, they try to
remain close to them. Staying close maximizes the caregiver’s
availability to respond to them at all times.
Finally, attachments are characterized by separation distress.
This means that toddlers often experience distress and anxiety
when an attachment figure leaves.
Behaviors such as separation anxiety begin to subside when the
child begins to understand some of the factors that influence a
caregiver’s comings and goings around 3 years of age.

6. ILABS Module on Attachment:
http://modules.ilabs.uw.edu/outreach-modules/
Researchers have identified three broad attachment behaviors
that children use.
The behaviors are secure, insecure-avoidant, and insecure-
resistant.
A child who is securely attached to their caregiver tends to
explore freely when that caregiver is present. When the
caregiver leaves, she is upset, and when the caregiver returns
she is happy.
A child with an insecure-avoidant attachment style won’t
explore as freely as a secure child, and is wary of strangers even
when a caregiver is present. When the caregiver leaves, she is
often highly distressed, and does not calm easily when the
caregiver returns.
A child with an insecure-resistant attachment style does not
play freely even when a caregiver is present. When the
caregiver leaves, she is not distressed at all, and shows no
change in emotion when the caregiver returns.

the level and extent of motor activity;
the rhythmicity, or degree of regularity, of functions such as
eating, elimination and the cycle of sleeping and wakefulness
the response to a new object or person, in terms of whether the
child accepts the new experience or withdraws from it
the adaptability of behavior to changes in the environment
the threshold, or sensitivity, to stimuli
the intensity, or energy level, of responses
the child's general mood or "disposition", whether cheerful or
given to crying, pleasant or cranky, friendly or unfriendly
the degree of the child's distractibility from what he is doing
the span of the child's attention and his persistence in an

and tended to cry a great deal.
Frustrations usually seemed to send them into violent tantrums

upbringing.
The "slow to warm up" (15%)
typically had relatively low activity levels, tended to withdraw
on their first exposure to new stimuli, were slower to adapt,
were somewhat negative in mood and responded to situations
with a low intensity of reaction.

Internal working models
using knowledge of the past in responding to the present and
future
three main features of the internal working model:
(1) a model of others as being trustworthy,
(2) a model of the self as valuable, and
(3) a model of the self as effective when interacting with others.
9. Parent-child “fit”
What seems to be universal across cultures…..
All parents nurture and protect their children
Must help children reach similar developmental tasks
wish physical health, social adjustment, educational
achievement, and economic security for their children,
nearly all parents regardless of culture seek to lead happy,
healthy, fulfilled parenthoods and to rear happy, healthy,
fulfilled children.

Parenting ‘styles’, practices
“Every culture is characterized, and distinguished from other
cultures, by deep-rooted and widely acknowledged ideas about
how one needs to feel, think, and act as a functioning member
of the culture.”
10. …and these beliefs shape how parents care for their children.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3433059/

Diana Baumrind Style
….the United States, Europe, and other “Western” cultures
emphasize autonomy: individual achievement, self-reliance, and
self-assertiveness.
The United States was founded on these characteristics, as
reflected in the iconic imagery of explorers, frontiersmen, and
entrepreneurs.
…. the practice of bronzing a baby’s first pair of shoes
symbolizes pride in his or her independent steps, away from the
parent.
To raise self-confident, individualistic children, parents offer
frequent praise, favor verbal feedback over physical contact,
and promote independent behaviors.
Children are encouraged to think critically, question the status
quo, and distinguish themselves from others.
Thus, a parenting style emphasizing autonomy is informed by
the belief that independence leads to individual adult
achievement.
…..other cultures, particularly in Asian, African, and Latin
American countries, tend to value interdependence: collective
achievement, sharing, and collaboration.
these concepts are thought to originate in agrarian societies in
which the community’s survival required pooling limited
resources (food, water, and shelter), then distributing them
equitably.
11. These values often are expressed in parental expectations that
children obey authority, share their possessions, and place the
family’s and community’s needs before their own.
Challenging authority and building self-esteem are less
important in cultures that historically depended on collective
action to ensure survival.
Cultures that promote interdependence typically have a longer
duration of sleeping in close proximity, less emphasis on
independent feeding, stricter approaches to obedience, and more
respect for elders.

For example, an authoritative parenting style (high warmth,
high control) leads to positive outcomes in European American
school children, whereas an authoritarian parenting style (low
warmth, high control) leads to positive outcomes in African
American and Hong Kong Chinese school children (Leung, Lau,
& Lam, 1998).

Summary
Federal legislation and policy has a significant history related
to early childhood and family studies.
There is a Science of Early Learning.
The U.S. is applying this science to enable all children to be
‘school ready’ & to have opportunity for optimal development.
22. This is seen in education, policy, & social welfare movements.
All of this has made a significant difference in millions of
lives….and continues to face challenges in serving all that are
in need.
Race to the Top Early Learning Challenge
President Obama has called inequality the “defining challenge
of our time.”

Physical abuse is the use of physical force, such as hitting,
kicking, shaking, burning, or other shows of force against a
child.
Sexual abuse involves engaging a child in sexual acts. It
includes behaviors such as fondling, penetration, and exposing a
child to other sexual activities.
Emotional abuse refers to behaviors that harm a child’s self-
worth or emotional well-being. Examples include name calling,
shaming, rejection, withholding love, and threatening.
Neglect is the failure to meet a child’s basic physical and
emotional needs. These needs include housing, food, clothing,
education, and access to medical care

26. Childhelp.org
A report of child abuse is made every ten seconds
More than four children die every day as a result of child abuse.
More than 90% of juvenile sexual abuse victims know their
perpetrator in some way.
Child abuse occurs at every socioeconomic level, across ethnic
and cultural lines, within all religions and at all levels of
education.
“Children are just as likely to be abused or neglected in wealthy
homes as in poor ones. However, wealthier white families are
simply not under the same scrutiny that brings families of color
of low socioeconomic status to the attention of child welfare
authorities.”*
About 30% of abused and neglected children will later abuse
their own children, continuing the horrible cycle of abuse.
The estimated annual cost of child abuse and neglect in the
United States for 2008 is $124 billion.

Selected Adverse Experiences
1. Lived with a parent or guardian who got divorced or
separated;
2. Lived with a parent or guardian who died;
3. Lived with a parent or guardian who served time in jail or
prison;
4. Lived with anyone who was mentally ill or suicidal, or
severely depressed for more than a couple of weeks;
5. Lived with anyone who had a problem with alcohol or drugs;
27. 6. Witnessed a parent, guardian, or other adult in the household
behaving violently toward another (e.g., slapping, hitting,
kicking, punching, or beating each other up);
7. Was ever the victim of violence or witnessed any violence in
his or her neighborhood; and
8. Experienced economic hardship “somewhat often” or “very
often” (i.e., the family found it hard to cover costs of food and
housing).
Significant adversity impairs development in the first 3
years…..the more adversity, the greater the odds of a
developmental delay…..risk factors such as poverty, caregiver
mental illness, child maltreatment, single parent, low maternal
education.

The Reading…..
What questions does this raise for you?
What is significant about this text?
How might it influence your understanding of children and
families?
Resilience
Resilience can be defined as the ability to thrive, mature, and
increase competence in the face of adverse circumstances.
31. Think about yourself…..
Take a few moments to write about a time that was difficult or
challenging.
How did the concept of ‘resilience’ play in to that moment?
Resilience: positive outcomes in the face of adversity
Not just in the person…but in the interaction between the
person and the environment
Resilience…. The single most common factor for children who
develop resilience is at least one stable and committed
relationship with a supportive parent, caregiver, or other
adult*.
