Even though they are important, the prenatal environment has become regarded as one of most crucial periods that can be influenced by these environmental factors.

Introduction

Studies on psychology and cognition have shown that a child’s language has a great impact on his/her ability to regulate his emotions and behavior. In order for two people to understand and share meaning with one another, a clear ground should first be laid out to avoid misunderstandings.

Most children in their early stages learn to use language as a means of self-expression and self-regulation, because ...

The Effect of the Family On Middle Childhood Development: children from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

However, if a child grows up in a household where their parents don’t work, or are even criminally active, that child is much more likely to grow up with a belief that it is acceptable to acquire money ...
