Strategies for Parents Concerning Child Health Many doctors all over the world get faced with the enormous challenge brought about by obesity. A lot of resources henceforth required for the allocation of the same disease, especially within the United States. An approximate percentage within the United States up to 60% over thirty years ago until now is obese and also overweight. Several disease incidences get proved to be in association with the same disease, which includes cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. The crisis for obesity gets more profound and contributed to fast food consumption as well as fructose and Trans fatty acids. The crisis also moreover contributed when an individual gets involved in less physical activity. Generally, the prediction of outcomes most notably of the cardiovascular can get determined by the use of the Body Mass Index, which can moreover get supported through utilizing other measurements such as those of anthropomorphic and the waist circumference. Specific initiatives have, however, get put forward most notably by the public health to reduce some of the factors that result in obesity. Various practices…

Early Brain Development The paper is examining how early experiences and environments of children determine their brain development. The article also involves how structural and functional neural changes occur from different circumstances of upbringing. Furthermore, it also demonstrates how early intervention can help reverse some of the effects of neglect on brain development. The Bucharest Early Intervention Project (BEIP) has been done before the paper, and the authors use it to answer the big question. The BEIP limitations were that the adopted children hardly being randomly selected for adoption. The authors suggest how early intervention can be used to reverse some of the adverse effects of neglect on brain development. To answer how early life experiences affect human brain development, the authors are going to use the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging study, which measures glucose metabolism and a marker of functional activity in the brain. In the study, the brain activity of institutionally reared children was compared with adults and non-neglected children with epilepsy. In the methods section, Electroencephalography was used to measure the electrical activities of the brain.…

Child discussion ‘This baby is excited when she sees her favourite toy. Having favourite toys is a 9-month social/emotional milestone. ‘At this age, the baby interacts with her toys, meaning that she is capable of picking items, and also she can switch the toys from hand to hand. The baby playing with toys help in developing perfect coordination between the baby’s eye and hand, thus indicating an early sign of the motor skills. A child at nine months must be subjected to playing with his or her toys to enable him or her coordinate both the eye and hand. 1year old ‘The little boy in this video cries when his mom leaves, a 1-year social/emotional milestone.’ At the age of one year, the child can identify his mother or father. He or she would not wish to be separated from the parents. By the babies crying, they are showing separation anxiety because they always want to be with their mothers or fathers all the time. It is usual for the baby to cry whenever his or her parents leave. 18months…

my roles concerning child support Introduction The focus of this paper is on the challenges facing children from different countries. The article will try to analyze through various theoretical practices the problems children are likely to encounter while growing. As a practitioner, this paper will enable me to reflect on my roles concerning child support. Besides, this article will look at ways of resolving challenges facing children. The forms include identification of their ecological system, social location awareness, hearing indigenous perspective, as well as self-reflecting and self-caring regularly. Ecological System BC Housing Kids Club offers child support services provided by South Vancouver Neighborhood House (SVNH). The club is committed to serving a vulnerable group of children. Urie Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory gives me a better understanding of child connection. Many of them are from countries with political instability such as Syria, Peru, Sudan, Thailand, Vietnam, among others. Children often have different ways of doing things due to differences in ethnic groups and race. For instance, all Muslim children at the club are required to wear hijab.besides, and they are forbidden…

Classical Argument on Detention of Immigrant Children Introduction Amongst the current issues that has turned out to be controversial in the United States is the zero tolerance policy that has led to the separation of immigrant children from their parents, along with their subsequent detention. By description, the zero-tolerance policy on immigration mainly refers to the laws that have been enacted with the objective of ensuring that illegal immigration into the United States is stopped. To attain this, the zero-tolerance policy allows the government, through the Homeland Security department, to detain immigrants found crossing the border into the United States for indefinite periods of time as a deterrence to those seeking to enter the United States illegally. The present administration of President Donald Trump has often perceived the zero tolerance immigration policy it enacted as being an escalated attempts geared towards addressing the unlawful immigration crisis at the US borders regardless of the indications that the arrests were lower than in earlier decades. Further, the policy also directs the prosecution of every immigrant who has unlawfully entered the United States,…

Comprehension of Third Person Singular /s/ in AAE-Speaking Children         Over the past years, studies and research on African American English (AAE) have generated a great deal of information on its phonological and morphosyntactic characteristics, which has been a great contributor in the legitimization of this English dialect as a full linguistic system. Further research on AAE development has led to the identification of alternative assessment procedures which distinguish language disorders and language difference. Additionally, studies have also focused more on the production of AAE features such as vernacular morphosyntactic forms, their occurrence and complex sentence production in African American children. However, despite these informative studies on AAE, there has been very little research and education in language comprehension in AAE-speaking children. The focus of this paper is on the understanding of the third person singular /s/ in African American English-speaking children. The few studies on the comprehension of the third person singular /s/ in AAE-speaking children have highlighted on comprehension tasks such as active and passive sentence construction, responses to requests for information, morphological status features in comprehension and…

: How Would You Test a Child’s Ability to Narrate a Story? Narrative development is the ability of a child to use language in telling stories, while the bilingual children are those with English as their second language after the mother tongue. Narrative development and disorder are, therefore, an impairment whereby a child experiences specific difficulties in production and comprehension of the narrative discourse, which is not deemed obvious in sentence performance and isolation according to(Reyes). Option 2: How Would You Test a Child’s Ability to Narrate a Story? I will test the child’s ability to tell stories through using the child’s characteristics, for instance, when my learners omit some specific links. I will know that the child’s audience is missing a clear causal relationship. The audience would be misguided in main understanding points of the events based on the child’s narration of the story. (Goldstein & Goldstein,  2012) suggest that children with the storytelling ability always possess specific links and causal relationships for their audience to follow the flow and the plots of their stories. Consequently, the children with…

Child Trauma Research Introduction There has been a high rise in the interest of trauma research, which makes the policymakers, ethics moderators and parents to grapple on the impact of such traumatic-research on the participants of the research. Several questions have been asked concerning the benefits and the risk that comes with being involved in traumatic research. It has been challenging to find out the best means in which the traumatic-research studies can be ethically designed to reduce the risks on the participants. Majority of the participants experience distress, stress and depression after their participation in the research. Distressing childhood experience can have long term implications on the entire life of the child throughout their adulthood to old age (Wallace, 2018). This paper discusses the risk and benefit of involving children in trauma research. Risks involving children in trauma research Immune system Trauma in childhood activates the immune system, which produces the cytokines that enhances inflammatory reaction against disease, causing organism. Cytokines are essential in ensuring the body is protected against infection, though cytokines are always implicated during the depression,…

incidents of wild children brought up in social segregation There have been several incidents of wild children brought up in social segregation with little or no human contact. The Story of Genie shows how she spent her childhood isolated and mistreated by her parents. Genie’s scenario was one of the first to test the critical period theory. Could a child raised in absolute denial and seclusion develop language? This essay argues that Genie’s story proves the critical theory hypothesis because of the difficulty she encountered in learning linguistic and her inability to use grammar. However, the lack of knowing the origin of her retardation contributed to failed measures to improve her condition. Human beings require to be nurtured to mature to their full potential. Nurture enables people’s personality, behavior, and intelligence to develop. A person can grow fully but can be limited if appropriate nurture is not provided (Schoolworkhelper Editorial Team, 2019). The time and care that was needed for proper growth were absent for most of Genie’s and Victor’s childhood. Thus, at their young age, they could barely speak…

CHILDREN’S ADVOCACY ALLIANCE Conclusion The CAA may not be utilizing available technology to confront competitive threats and achieve its key strategic goals. The CAA faces challenges such as lack of a functional IT department within the organization since it is supported through the IT structure at the respective software developer at its headquarters. As much as the organization runs through the available support structure, it may not be enough for the required technological standards for its day to day operations. Although the organization utilizes technology such as enterprise planning resource and others, it needs to incorporate technical applications that mainly enhance service delivery to its clients. Therefore, the CAA needs to apply technology in tracking the location of its clients, monitoring therapy among its clients, collecting data about neglected children who need its help, and in its intervention processes. Technology can never be adequate. However, with a functional and independent IT department, the Alliance will source innovative personnel who will avail of appropriate software and applications as it needs. For the moment, the available IT solutions match the needs of…
