I put.....As a practitioner part of my role is to be aware of issues that have a positive or negative influence on children’s lives. We should ensure that this is an understanding by every practitioner and it is at the centre of our work.

Poverty – A family living on a low income might not be able to provide for their children as hoped. Accommodation may be poor which can have an effect on the mental and physical health of children and their parents.

Offending or anti social behaviour – Such as behaviour by parents of a child may result in a child being taken into care.

Disability – The disability of a parent or child could affect educational provision, cause poverty or mean that the child is a carer. Support or respite care may be needed for the child or young person.

Bereavement and loss – Losing a family member or friend can affect the emotional and physical health of children and their parents. Adults losing a child or partner may find caring for any remaining children difficult.

Ethnic beliefs and customs – This could affect the dietary needs of
children, clothing, customs or other aspects of their lives.

Hi
here are a few more:

Educational environment-
Settings that do not meet the statutory requirements required within the EYFS can affect a child’s development and potential. Within our setting we value parent’s participation as they are the child’s main educators, we are available at all times to speak with parents about their child or any concerns they have. We hope parents will see our setting as a safe and secure place that they can leave their children. We have a key person system that enables us to have a positive attachment with parents and child.
We encourage children to explore our setting we provide a free flow system that encourages the children to explore every area and for them to chose which activities they will take part in. Parents and children are made to feel welcome and comfortable with staff members. We are inspected by ofsted and we maintain the standards and guidance that is set by them and we regularly reflect and continue to develop our practice.


Family expectations and encouragement-
If we do not help and support children and young people, this can lead to low confidence and low self-esteem and sometimes spiral into challenging behaviour. When too much pressure is put on a child to do well this can result in the child getting stressed and afraid of failure such as when a parents puts pressure on a child to attend ballet lessons when the child doesn’t want to, the child will not do well in this because they don’t want to do it.


Health status-
Children or young people that have ill health may spend a vast amount of time in hospital or attending hospital appointments, this will impact on the child’s development due to missed time from pre-school or school, this can affect education on all aspects of development such as emotional and social aspects, making friendships etc. Asthmatics triggered by certain conditions could affect a child’s physical stamina and may need to take time out attending hospital/ doctor’s appointments etc. Ill health can affect many aspects of a child’s development such as medication that may cause drowsiness and certain medications can restrict them on what they can do. Due to time being taken off for appointments this can affect their social skills and it can also slow down development and learning skills. There are some older children that look after parents that are ill, this is a huge impact on the young person social life and a lot of responsibility at such a young age.


Personal choices-
Within the United Nations Convention on the Right of the Child Act (UNCRC)
Children have the choices to make decisions for themselves the choices they make can have a significant impact on their life and development. If the child or young person does not have support from carers they will not have ground rules in place so they may be able to do as they please such as take drugs, smoke, have underage sex, this will hugely impact on their life. Children need to be encouraged or be given guidance on their life, it is very important for children to have good role models in their life, within our setting we provide good role modelling and guide them in the right direction.

HELP! assignment 031 - CCLD 3 - Task A
 
I need help with task a - a description of possible social, economical and cultural factors which could affect children and young people.
I have written this and wondered if it was ok? going insane! :thumbsdow

When working with children you should be aware of all possible social, economic and cultural factors which may impact on the upbringing of children and young people attending the setting. These factors are issues within society which will or can affect children or young peoples lives. Social factors – An example of a possible social factors could be a child having to deal with the separation of their parents. Being bought up in the set up, living with one parent and visiting other parent in a new home may have a negative impact on a child emotionally. This separation from having both parents around you in the same home to having only 1 parent in the family home can cause a child to feel very upset and alone during this transaction. This will also cause a lot of confusion, insecurities including lack of trust to adults around them and becoming afraid of caring for adults in and around their family homes. Economic factors – An example of a possible economic factor could be a child living with an unemployed parent or parents, this could affect a child's upbringing because a parent may not be able to offer adequate amounts of food, drink and good quality foods, parents may not be able to afford appropriate hygiene being unable to afford bills which could have affects on the living conditions of the family home even causing poverty. This example could have affects on the child: poor health, being underweight, illness' from poor living conditions such as from damp in the house and cause much more stress for the child to be present to. Cultural factors - An example of a possible cultural factor could be a families religious beliefs and views which can affect and can restrict activities the child can get involved in during their time at the setting. This could be seasonal and religious festivals such as Christmas. It can also affect their dressing needs which may show obvious signs of being different to others which may cause a child to have low self-esteem and lack in confidence. The way children who are bought up in a religious family may have different beliefs which alter the way in which they are bought up. This could affect a child as they may experience discrimination and equality which could affect possible opportunities later in life.

Hi i was wondering if anyone would be able to help me please?
I've been asked to write about the social, economic and cultural factors that impact on the lives of children and young people. Specifically I've just been told to look at housing and community, being in care, bereavement and loss, and health support.
I've completed most of it, but have drawn a blank when it comes to the health support! I know it will have something to do with future health risks if the correct care isn't given when needed etc. but was hoping maybe someone could point me in the right direction of how to start writing about this? or any websites that can outline the impact of poor health support etc?
Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you

My question is slightly different (see below)

Influences on Behaviour
Optional Route A: TDA3.20 AC1.1, 1.2

Explain how aspects of upbringing, home circumstances, and physical and emotional health of children and young people could affect their ability to relate to others.

I have put this...

A child’s upbringing is a vital component to how they are likely to turn out in later life. Their upbringing shapes the person they will become (whether that’s positive or negative) morally, socially and emotionally.
Aspects of the upbringing, home circumstances and the physical and emotional health of a child to be considered include:
Adult role models
• Are the adults in the child’s life having a positive or negative influence on them?
Discipline/Rules/Boundaries/Consequences
• Are the parents/carers providing adequate discipline?
• Are there firm boundaries? Boundaries teach children that there are consequences to actions
• Are there clear rules? Does the child fully understand why these rules are in place?
• Do the parents always follow through with consequences of broken rules/boundaries?
• Is one parent ‘softer’ than the other and doesn’t follow through with consequences and discipline? Is there only one parent/carer in the child’s life?
• Is the discipline too strict? Strict/unnecessary discipline can instil fear in a child which can make them withdrawn and reluctant to try anything new
• Are the main care-givers present enough in their child’s life? Do they work too much? Do they live separately - making it harder lay down rules, boundaries and consequences or do both parents have different rules?
Consistency
• Do the parents/carers show a united front or do they have different views? When the main care-givers do not provide consistency this gives mixed signals to the child/children
• If there is more than one child, are the parents/carers consistent and equal in their approach to all children in the family?
Communication –
• Does the child feel that they can go to their parents/carers with problems?
• Do they have regular family discussions where everyone gets listened to? Do parents/carers show interest in what their child has to say? Spending time with your children and having active discussions helps to teach them about life and develops their social skills
• Are they encouraged to make their own decisions or are they told what to do?
* Do the parents/carers show their own emotions in front of their child/children? Children can learn that it is okay to show their true emotions and will learn how to deal with them better
Advice and guidance
• Do parents/carers give appropriate advice and guidance? This helps them to make the right choices independently
Family income
• Is there enough money for children to take part in clubs/activities/trips with their friends?
• Are they able to keep up with fashion trends like their friends?
• Is there enough money to buy nutritious food and provide 3 meals a day?
• Is the child resentful towards the parent/carer for having little/no money?
Health
• Is the family home in a safe condition to live in? Children living in unsafe conditions are much more likely to have poor health therefore affecting their attendance at school which will then affect their behaviour. They are also more likely to suffer emotionally with poor mental health
• Is the house overcrowded? Is the child getting enough sleep? Does the child have somewhere they can go for time alone? Do they have somewhere they can do their homework?
• Does the child go for regular medical checks e.g. the dentist?

Please bare in mind that I work with 14-16yr olds rather than young children
