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.
