Huge Impact

The preschool period is perhaps the most critical period in the life of a young child. It is here that major changes occur in physical, mental, social, and emotional development, which have a huge impact on the personality and appearance of a person in later periods of development and in adult life. The child becomes a conscious member of society, learns its rules and norms, and defines its position among its people. It is at this time that basic habits and ways of behavior, basic needs are formed. It is a period of acquiring social experience. It is therefore of key importance in the development of the character and personality of a young person. Acquired skills and knowledge have a significant impact on the functioning of the child in later periods - on its performance in school, relationships with the environment, and perception of itself. The child also adopts moral principles from the immediate family environment, and the social environment can only develop and reinforce what has been prepared by the family. Suppose. Therefore, parents and educators provide conditions conducive to forming a sense of security in the child during this period of life. If they do not make the child excessively dependent on themselves, they will certainly contribute to the development of a wonderful personality of the child and provide him/her with a good start in school. The article discusses ways of stimulating the development of preschool children through music, art, and literature, noting that these are educational means of holistic child development. They can be used both in work with a sick child or a child with disabilities and in work with healthy children, in whom teachers want to develop and improve their skills in all spheres of functioning, that is emotional, intellectual, and social.

Taking into account the psychophysical development of a young person, a child in particular, attention should be paid to forming certain habits related to physical activity, health, nutrition, hygiene, and aesthetics during the preschool period as such habits will be of utmost importance in his/ her adult life. Physical activity of children affects various health parameters both today and in the future. Specialists draw attention to the correlation between physical activity and the development of the musculoskeletal system, body posture, the nervous, respiratory and vegetative systems. The lack of physical activity may result in cardiovascular diseases or obesity. These are just some of the reasons for which people need physical activity in their lives. Bearing in mind the lack of research on this issue, it was decided to conduct research on the physical activity of children (210 students) aged 4-6 attending selected kindergartens located in the town of Biała Podlaska, Poland. The level of physical activity of children was measured with the use of special devices, so called actigraph units (accelerometers in Polish). Due to a small size of this wrist-watch-like device, movements of children or their participation in games and different forms of activities in kindergarten were not hampered. On the basis of the collected data, statistical analysis was performed. Non-parametric statistical tests were used in order to identify the relationship between variables of the physical activity level and sex, age and weight of a child. Data analysis revealed statistically significant differences between the level of physical activity and some personal characteristics. The research conclusions, which will be helpful in providing effective education in the field of physical activity, were made available to kindergartens.

Many are peeling many of wich explore the child’s ungodly behavior to parents, but few who explore the opposite phenomenon of the ungodly behavior of parents against their children. Children is a grace from God of Allah swt to his parents to be grateful, educated and fostered to be a good person, strong personality and ethical Islamic. While, the development of religion in children is largely determined by the education and their experience, especially during the pre-election period of expectant mothers and fathers and the first growth period from 0 to 12 years. For that, the author is moved to explore and examine (about) the concept of elderly parents in the perspective of Islam. This is the author thoroughly to know who exactly the child in his existence according to Islam? What is the rule and rule of education in family and family roles in children’s education? What are the preparations (actions) that are classified as the ungodly behavior of parens against the child? In this study shows there is an effect (impact) between the family environment (parents) on the formation of islamic character and ethics in children from an early age mainly from the factors of prospective fathers and prospective mothers so the authors get the correlation that the failure of good personality planting in early childhood will turn out to form a problematic person in his adulthood (his grow up). While the success of parents guiding their children will determine the formation of character and their morals so that the family environment conditions are crucial for the success of children in social life in their adult life later (after grow up).  In this study resulted in the conclusion that there are some things that make the parents become ungodly against their children and it has been conceptualized in the holy book of the Qur’an which at least in this study collected there are 14 components of eldery behavior of the lawless to their children.

Adolescence is a crucial period in the life of every individual. The significance of adolescence and young adulthood is highlighted in relation to the crucial developmental process of preparing and transitioning to adulthood. During this period, the important developmental milestones are reached, and the young person develops a greater understanding about who they are and form their self-identity as per the Erikson. Adolescents become more independent and autonomous during this time. Adolescence is marked by changes that are not only physical but also psychological, social and emotional. Sometimes due to lack of proper knowledge and guidance, they end up having health related issues like teen pregnancy, STDs and other mental health issues like breakups etc. To tackle all these issues the health professionals should be sensitive and non-judgmental and should provide unbiased care. Adolescents have their own experiences and point of view that should be respected and taken into account. It is important to trust adolescents and their sense of responsibility. Adolescents are often reluctant to visit health facilities. It is therefore important to reach out to them by providing adolescent friendly services. It is their right also to have access to health care whenever they need it. It is essential to have trained and sensitive staff in these health centers so that young people access services in these centers in a confidential and non-judgmental manner.

Összefoglaló. Bevezetés: A kutatócsoport 99 fő, cerebralis paresisben (CP) szenvedő gyermek (8–18 éves) önállóan közölt életminőségét értékelte, és az eredményeket összehasonlította egy 237 fős kontrollcsoport adataival, amelyek hasonló életkorú, egészséges általános populációhoz tartozó gyermekektől származtak. Célkitűzés: A kutatás célja annak megismerése volt, hogy a CP-ben szenvedő gyermekek hogyan vélekednek egészségi állapotukról és társadalmi helyzetükről. Módszer: Életminőség-kérdőív alkalmazása. Betegségspecifikus és társadalmi-demográfiai mutatók mérése, kiértékelése. Eredmények: Az CP-ben szenvedő gyermekek és szüleik az egészséggel kapcsolatos életminőséget rosszabbnak ítélték meg, mint társaik. Eredményeink azt mutatják, hogy a női nem, a rosszabb motoros funkció és a komorbiditások (epilepszia, incontinentia és intellektuális károsodás) negatív hatású. A szülői vélemény alkalmas volt proxyjelentésként a korreláció mért erőssége miatt. Figyelemre méltó, hogy az agyi bénulás típusai közül az egyoldali spasticus CP-ben szenvedő gyermekek életminőség-értéke a legalacsonyabb. A válaszadók valószínűleg a test két oldala között lévő funkcionális különbséget érezték. A szellemi fogyatékosság a betegpopuláció több mint felénél fordult elő. Testvéreik között a mentális betegség 5,7-szer gyakoribb. A CP-s gyerekek családi környezete sokkal hátrányosabb volt, mint az egészséges gyermekeké. A kutatás eredményei alapján megállapítható, hogy a szülő alacsonyabb iskolai végzettsége és munkaerőpiaci inaktivitása, valamint az egyszülős család a CP-s gyerekeknél szignifikánsan magasabb arányban fordult elő, és ezek a tényezők negatív hatást gyakoroltak az életminőségre. Következtetés: A fogyatékkal élő gyermekek életminőségét a betegség és a szociodemográfiai környezet egyaránt befolyásolja. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(7): 269–279. Summary. Introduction: Self-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of 99 children (8–18 years) with cerebral palsy (CP) was assessed and compared with 237, age-matched healthy control children from the general population. Objective: The aim was to find out the opinions of children with CP about their health status and social condition. Method: Assessment of quality of life questionnaire was carried out. Measurements of disease-specific and sociodemographic variables were done. Results: Children with CP and their parents rated HRQoL poorer than their counterparts. Our results show that female sex, worse gross motor function and comorbidities (epilepsy, incontinence and intellectual impairment) had negative impact. The parental opinion was suitable as proxy report because of the measured strength of the correlation. Among the types of CP, interestingly, children with unilateral spastic CP had the poorest HRQoL. They were likely to feel a functional difference between the two sides of the body. Intellectual disability occurred in more than half of our patient population. Among their siblings, mental illness is 5.7 times more common. The family environment was much more disadvantageous than in the case of healthy children. As our study shows, lower education, inactive status in the labour market and single-parent family occurred at a much higher rate and worsened the quality of life. Conclusion: Quality of life of children with disability was influenced by both the sociodemographic background and the disease. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(7): 269–279.

This chapter considers a theoretical framework — lifespan developmental theory — which can assist in shedding light on the processes underlying human development. Lifespan development theory is an approach that explores particular challenges associated with different life stages, and identifies factors affecting adjustment across the lifespan. In the context of this theory, the chapter focuses in particular on adolescence as a developmental stage within the lifespan. The notion of transition is then explored, and this includes reference to puberty, brain development, and the variety of social and emotional changes that impact on the young person during this period. The chapter concludes by examining possible reasons why certain young people might be vulnerable in their early sexual relationships.

The prevention of alcohol abuse among youth must move beyond educational programs which provide information about the substance and its potential harmful effects. This effort involves an exploration of the underlying motivational factors which lead the young person to drink to excess. An examination of several areas of personality development points the way toward prevention strategies which respond to the social and emotional needs of the young alcohol abuser. A number of prevention programs which utilize some of these strategies have begun to operate throughout the United States. There is a critical need for more of these programs, and a particular need in the area of early parent education.

The Right

The increasing emergence of legislation providing for minors' consent for health care furnishes a range of basic medical, legal, and social issues which require the thoughtful consideration of physicians caring for youth. The legislative provisions referred to account for a variety of consent situations ranging from the care of a specific illness or disorder to the dramatic lowering of the age for which consent for health care can be given. The ultimate conflict in the matter of minor's consent is between the basic rights and responsibilities of parents concerning their children and the emergence of the concept that youths have the right to make decisions relating to their bodies and their care. When the preservation of privacy and confidentiality affects the utilization of health care by youth, the conflict must be resolved. Not only have state legislatures provided varying opportunities to resolve some of these issues, but also two major health organizations concerned with the health of youth have provided model acts which would serve as a basis for enabling young people to consent for confidential, comprehensive health care. In recent years society has demonstrated a tendency to permit young people to determine a variety of aspects of their own affairs well before the traditional age of majority. In regard to health decisions, a number of situations have emerged in which the rights of youths deserve consideration. These include circumstances in which the person might avoid health care if the parents have to be informed, when a communication breakdown between the young person and the parents has taken place, if a need for emergency care occurs when parents cannot be reached, or when young people are living away from home in an adult life style. Legislative responses to the sociohealth concerns affecting youth do not take a moral or judgmental position, nor do they infer a lessening of the importance of family integrity. They do respond to a number of reality health matters with high incidence which have emerged, particularly in the past decade. These laws do not require physicians to treat young people on their own consent, nor do they forbid physicians from informing parents if this is considered in the best interest of the patient. Furthermore, it is important for the physician to persuade youths to involve their parents and gain their support and understanding. Minors' consent can serve to restore interrupted communication between young people and their families. The appearance and evolution of the "emancipated minor" and the "mature minor" concepts is recognition of the capacity of the adolescent to determine his own affairs and give an informed consent. The age at which human beings reach maturity is variable, and competent decision making is not assured by arrival at a certain chronological age.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to consider the position of relationship-based practice in youth justice by looking at how “effective programmes” seem to have been given heightened importance over “effective” young person-worker relationships. Design/methodology/approach – By critically reviewing the literature on the topic, the paper promotes debate on the position of relationship-based practice in youth justice. Findings – It is argued that the young person-worker relationship is very important. A genuine and empathetic relationship can reduce the chances of re-offending and improve the child's personal, social and emotional development. By being respectful and listening attentively to children's “life stories”, barriers can be overcome, potentially resulting in lifestyle, social and behavioural change. However, although there is evidence that developing a trusting relationship is “effective” and that it is a key component of effective practice, what is less clear is how to practically secure the engagement of a child. Originality/value – In comparison to the emphasis on effective programme intervention, there has been less research done on the “characteristics” of effective staff practice in youth justice.
