Children's social skills 'eroded by decline of family meals' - Telegraph - 0 views

  • decline in family dinners had also coincided with increased access to high-fat convenience food.
  • “As a society, we have lost the beneficial effects of sharing a meal around the table.
  • children were healthier and less likely to be overweight in households where families eat together around the dining table.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Separate research has concluded that around one-in-10 adults never eat a meal with their children and another 10 per cent only share dinners once a week
  • “The decline of family meals has led to the erosion of social skills among youngsters, despite the fact that it is increasingly becoming clear for the future that an ability to get on with people and share ideas will be just as vital in the workplace as the ability to master English and maths,” he said
  • “The over-emphasis on material success and, in education, on valuing attainment only, with too little attention paid to establishing a sense of belonging, has meant that some fundamental values have been inverted. "Essentially, our education system and our culture have got things upside down. We've told our children that they will reach a sense of belonging by means of achieving material success, instead of the other way round.”
  • Maelani Parker on 24 Aug 12
     
    This article shows one area of decline in the traditional family structure. Nutrition suffers when the family does not eat together regularly. Also, children grow up with depleted social skills and disadvantage in the workplace. This is relevant to my research project because I want to study nutrition and plan on having a family on my own so this seemed to be a highly relevant article and potential resource for my project.

  • Parental drug misuse can have an effect on the development of the foetus and long-term consequences for children. Some effects may be physical, but the most important ones will be on the developing mind and brain of the child. These effects may not be visible, and, in some cases, the impact on the child´s development and behaviour may not manifest for some years.
  • The effects on the unborn child include: chromosomal abnormalities; structural malformations (e.g. cleft palate); intrauterine growth retardation; functional impairment (e.g. deafness); behavioural abnormalities (e.g. hyperactivity); and learning difficulties.
  • a high proportion of newborn babies, especially those whose mother used heroin, will suffer withdrawal symptoms which may last up to several months and which will include tremors, high muscle tone, irritability, diarrhoea, vomiting and abnormal feeding and sleep patterns.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • there is an increase in premature delivery, low birth weight and death around the time of delivery.
  • but small head size, intrauterine growth retardation, prematurity, stillbirths, heart defects, abnormal bone development and neonatal withdrawal syndrome have been noted. Some studies have reported learning disorders and attention deficit at three years of age
  • there is a risk of intrauterine growth retardation and premature delivery.
  • One long-term study found that the speech and memory performance among four-yearolds whose mothers had consumed cannabis daily or several times a week during pregnancy was affected significantly
  • abnormalities of growth, including low birth weight and small head circumferencecentral nervous system involvement andinclude small, widely-spaced eyes, flat midface, short, upturned nose, thin upper lip.
  • depressed immune function, strabismus, hearing loss, and abnormalities of heart, lungs and teeth.
  • They will frequently have difficulties forming attachments.
  • attention and memory deficitshyperactivitydifficulty learning from behavioursinability to understand the consequences of their actionsdifficulty with abstract conceptsreduced problem-solving skillsdifficulty with social functioningdifficulties with controlling impulses

    On this web page we see that Parents have a major effect on the development of their child before birth. When the parent makes choices to expose their unborn children to any form of drugs or alcohol there are high costs for their child. These costs do not end with childhood.

Long-term Effects of Parents' Education on Children's Educational and Occupational Succ... - 0 views

  • Parents’ educational level when the child was 8 years old significantly predicted educational and occupational success for the child 40 years later. Structural models showed that parental educational level had no direct effects on child educational level or occupational prestige at age 48 but had significant indirect effects that were independent of the other predictor variables’ effects. These indirect effects were mediated through age 19 educational aspirations and age 19 educational level. These results provide strong support for the unique predictive role of parental education on adult outcomes 40 years later and underscore the developmental importance of mediators of parent education effects such as late adolescent achievement and achievement-related aspirations
  • Maelani Parker on 26 Aug 12
     
    This passage shows that the level of education a person attains in their early years will effect the education of their children. This is another effect parents have on their children and future generations simply by their choices in the field of education.
