CULTURE, STRUCTURE, CONSISTENCY BY: TAYLOR BRIZEE

CULTURE • Culture can greatly affect a toddler or infants development mainly because every child is different, they will grow up into what is around them and this will play a major role in a child's development. One of the main changes is language, as you know and have probably seen, some adults talk to their children differently, aka in the baby voice, and treating them like a child, which is understandable but at the same time it depends on what it is that you listen to when the child and you have an interaction, listen to what they need, or beliefs. https: //theconversation. com/how-culture-influences-childrens-development-99791

STRUCTURE • As you know, everyone has their own way of structure for each of their families. Theres many different types of families, nuclear meaning living with 2 parents who are married, single parent meaning living with one single adult, unmarried or adoptive and the list can go on and on. There have been studies done to see in which what type of family the child grows up in does to the childs development. It tends to be better in nuclear families, and extended families, but still this does not mean that things cant be different. https: //ifstudies. org/blog/family-structure-andchildrens-health/

CONSISTENCY • This goes along hand with structure, typically the more structure in a family, the easier it is for a child, notice how I did not say better. When it comes to consistency it can help improve the child's behavior, toddlers more so than infants like to push the boundaries, but at the same time like to have limits so it is important that you do not just give in to everything as a parent because that shows the child that you are easily pushed around and they can test those limits more. Keep the child in routines, it helps them with developing times. Now we know things change and that’s ok but try your best to keep it on track. https: //www. parentingideas. com. au/blog/how-consistency-improves-kidsbehaviour/
