Unpleasant stuff happens to all of us wether its predictable or unpredictable by feeling in control and able to organise, learning to cope with changes in life, coping with a physical changes. Predicted events of a teenager: When a child is born they are predicted to move on with their life and live it the best possible way they can. Any major changes can influence development positively within their life, as they grow. When they start secondary school they would want to make new friends and cope with the changes that would come ahead of them, which is known as positive learning. However, there could be risks of stress because no-one might let him/her hang around with them or he/she don't fit in with any group which is painful and makes them feel lonely and anxious; sometimes worthless. Perhaps no one listens to them - then he/she feel that no one cares. This may not really be happening but it feels that way and it hurts.

Genetic Factors: Cystic fibrosis is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of children and.

Describe the ideal relationship between parents and children. How do you appreciate your parents and how do they appreciate you?

Lil Maisky Year 11 Parenting: -Describe the ideal relationship between parents and children. -How do you appreciate your parents and how do they appreciate you? (400 words) Any ideal relationship is based on the appropriate balance in between the commitment and effort of both members concerned. However, the relationship between a parent and child is far more complicated as there is a large amount of responsibility involved. Also, the child is likely to resemble one or both of the parents to a certain extent, but not be as developed or experienced as the parent, thus adding a lot of competition and argumentative aspects to the relationship. This can be more prominently observed when two members of the same sex are involved (mother and daughter...) As the age of the child increases, the responsibility of the parent decreases, most probably proportionally, and this has to be observed by the parent. One has to take into consideration that the child's young years are all that he/she has experienced and that although it's existence might only go back as far as a tiny fraction of the parents life, this cannot be understood by the child until a certain age. Therefore, when a child is growing up, it is developing and learning everything at such a quick rate in proportion to the adult's standards that the parent might not realise when it has to use more lenience in the

Influences on personal learning

One of them is auditory learners that means that people learn by being explained to by their teacher or reading out a piece of text that they have been given to read will help them to understand it more. When they are doing work or studying for a test listening to music can help them to concentrate or a quite area because they might get easily distracted by the noise and things happening around them. Another learning style is visual learners they work best by watching people do thing so they know how it is done also by reading something for themselves and not being told what the piece of text says because they might find it hard to concentrate as well as looking at pictures is a good way for them to learn. The last learning style is kinaesthetic learners it is best for them to learn is by them being active in what they are learning for example doing practical lessons in science or any other subject also when something getting explained to them writing note help them understand it better. Some things that may influence the way that I learn for example is teacher that are in schools for example if I was tort by a teacher which always said that my work was wrong and never gave the praise me then that could affect the me by not trying my hardest in that lesson or the I could just stop doing that

Barriers of Communication

Cultural Differences are a barrier to communication, it is a variation between cultures because people come from different backgrounds, and have different beliefs and opinions. Some people may think your being racist because of the way you speak to them and if you argue back to them about their opinions and beliefs, they may get offended. Cultural Differences also means the way people dress, their religions, interests and the kind of food they may eat. Some people from different cultures are vegetarians, and some people such as Muslims can only eat Halal food. They may also listen to different kinds of music, in other languages. A way to overcome this barrier is to respect other people's opinions and beliefs. Foreign languages are languages that come from other countries. Foreign languages are a barrier to communication, e.g. you might speak to someone in English but the other person may speak in German with you so you wouldn't be able to communicate with them due to the language you speak in, this is a barrier to communication. A way to overcome this barrier is by using the individual's preferred spoken language to communicate or get an interpreter to help you. If someone has disabilities, you wouldn't feel comfortable talking to them because if they are blind you wouldn't have eye contact and if they are deaf you wouldn't know how to explain something to them. You should

There are many factors that could affect an individual's self-concept. These are; * Age - age makes a very big difference to the way children can describe themselves and the way adults think about their lives, because self-concept develops due to social influences. Your self-concept will grow and change as you grow older. * Appearance - somewhere between 10 and 12 years of age, children start to work out how they fit in with others: do they look good or not, are they popular with others or not?

Care Value Base

Care Value Base The Care Value Base was created by the Care Sector Consortium in 1992, it came from the NVQ's (National Vocational Qualification) to support a well-known set of principles and values for Care workers and professionals in Health and Social Care. The Care Value Base provides people rights and responsibilities, equality and diversity, and confidentiality. The Care Value Base was originally identified in codes of Care practice. A Care Value Base is an ethical policy code which tells how carers need to act in different situations; they are not allowed to discriminate against anyone, be mean, or to provide poor care for their patients. For the first time the Health and Social Care industry had a basic code from which they could make ethical decisions about specific situations. The Care Value Base is made out of five elements: * Anti Discriminatory Practice * Confidentiality * Individual Rights * Personal beliefs and identity * Effective Communication Anti Discriminatory Practice The Anti Discriminatory Practice stops people from being discriminated against or discriminating others which include: The sex discrimination Act 1975, Race Relations Act 1976 and Disabled Persons Act 1986, these Acts are present in all Health and Social Settings. e.g. In a hospital ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat) ward, there is a service user who is an African and female.
