Study Notes

  • Parenting involves providing children with protection and care in order to ensure their healthy development into adulthood.
  • Biological and socialization influences are difficult to separate, and parental experiences often modify genetic predispositions.
  • Parent-child interaction is bidirectional and often escalates into cycles of action and reaction.
  • Parents play a significant role in shaping children's environments, and children's exposure to other factors that influence development is often mediated by parents.
  • Children's developmental tasks change as they mature.
  • In the first few years of life, children depend entirely on their caregivers, who determine most of the children's experiences.
  • This period offers unparalleled opportunities for learning and development, which are best supported by an enriched but not pressured environment.
  • Later experiences can completely alter children's developmental paths.
