Part A Working with the families of children with disabilities can be delicate for many reasons, not the least of which is that they may not be able to fully participate in ways which are meaningful (Dunst, 2002, 143).

I am against the idea of parenting license as it intervenes in individual freedom, violates the human right to ‘procreate’, and promotes practices such as forced abortion and sterilization. It is a rather an idealized perception that children can be raised by the adoption and practice of ‘impartially correct and approved’ ways. Cases of neglect and abuse of children could be evidently identified that indicate a clear threat to the child’s wellbeing. There are many cases whereby children are malnourished and fed poorly, mistreated, and physically and emotionally injured. Intervention in such cases is truly reasonable and acceptable. ...

However, community nursing provides an advantage to the health worker who faces those diverse challenges. The family in question was a single parent family. The family only ...

Introduction

The negative or positive experiences of early childhood play a very significant role in the development of the social and emotional behavior of an individual.

This is because the social and emotional development of an individual are influenced by several factors that they encounter during their major stages of growth in their lifespan (McClelland, Ponitz, Messersmith, & Tominey, 2010, p. 35).
