Gendered Stereotypes

This chapter discusses the idealization of Jewish motherhood in contemporary award-winning Jewish children's books. It reviews books that portray mothers and mothering stereotypically associated with private, domestic Jewish practice and childrearing. It also explores Jewish children's books that feature fathers as central figures in public Jewish ritual observances and civic leadership, and as responsible for children's formal education. The chapter shows the pious, domestic mother and the oriented father, which reinforce a gendered conception of what it means to be a mother and encode gendered stereotypes within the formative experiences of Jewish early childhood education. It cites children's books that promote an uncomplicated idealization for children of what it means to live within a Jewish culture and show varieties of contemporary family structure that include interfaith, same sex, and single parents.

Abstract Background: Early childhood developmental pattern analyses not only project future cognition potential, but also identify potential risks for possible intervention. There is a paucity of literature evaluating developmental trends in the low and middle income country settings.Methods: Trends of early childhood development at 6, 15, 24 and 36 months of age and their predictors were explored in a longitudinal community-based birth cohort study in an urban slum in Vellore, South India. Development was assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-III (BSID-III).Results: The birth cohort enrolled 251 children with a 94%, 91% and 87% follow-up at 6, 24 and 36 months respectively. Child development domains of cognition, language, motor and social skills showed a significant decline in scores between 6 and 36 months of age. Cognition change was maximum augmented by higher socio-economic status (SES) and nurturing home environment while stunting had the maximum negative impact. Higher maternal cognition, higher SES, and caregiver responsivity positively contributed to language change over time, while higher maternal depression contributed negatively. An enriching home environment, growth parameters and blood iron status had high association with change in motor skills.Conclusions: A triple intervention plan to enhance home environment and nurturance, maternal education and well-being, and early childhood nutrition supplementation might prevent child developmental decline in high risk settings.

Developmental Trends

Abstract Background: Early childhood developmental pattern analyses not only project future cognition potential, but also identify potential risks for possible intervention. The current study evaluates developmental trends in the first three years of life and their predictors in a low and middle income country setting.Methods: Trends of early childhood development at 6, 15, 24 and 36 months of age and their predictors were explored in a longitudinal community-based birth cohort study in an urban slum in Vellore, South India. Development was assessed using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-III (BSID-III).Results: The birth cohort enrolled 251 children with 94%, 91% and 87% follow-up at 6, 24 and 36 months respectively. Child development domains of cognition, language, motor and social skills showed a significant decline in scores between 6 and 36 months of age. Higher socioeconomic position (SEP) and nurturing home environment contributed to increase in cognition scores by 1.9 and 0.9 units respectively. However, stunting resulted in drop of cognition scores by 1.7 units. Higher maternal cognition, higher SEP, and caregiver responsivity positively contributed to language change over time, while higher maternal depression contributed negatively. An enriching home environment, growth parameters and blood iron status had positive association with change in motor skills.Conclusions: A triple intervention plan to enhance home environment and nurturance, early childhood nutrient supplementation, and maternal education and well-being might prevent child developmental decline in high risk settings.
