i think the theorists help to give an understanding of how to help the child develop to their full potential, for example piagets stages give you an idea of what activities and resources the child needs for their development stage, and skinner shows that even just having the experience of being in a setting will impact the child. I completed a 3 year child education & development degree, in which we had a few modules about the theorists, after i found that i could understand better, why children behave like they do, although they are all different and what their individual needs were, and also what they needed from me. learning different peoples theories helped me to have a greater understanding of all of this. i wouldnt say that one theorist alone was right and another was wrong, they all combine to give an overall deeper understanding of child develpoment. Wow i did learn something from uni! I finished 2 years ago and still remember something!
