Book Synopsis Parenting Matters by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Parenting Matters written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.
Download or read book Cleftthoughts written by Joe Rutland and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emotions ranging from happiness to fear fill people's everyday lives. For children, adults, parents, and guardians in the facial difference community around the world, this is also true. Yet there are deeper wounds that happen, too. Those can include physical, emotional, and mental abuse either from others or self-inflicted. Understanding those emotions, where they come from, and how to address them in the midst of living through one's own personal journey takes bravery and action. In "CleftThoughts: Emotional Musings From The Facial Difference World," author Joe Rutland shares his own experiences as well as what he's heard from others in the facial difference community. Rutland, born with a unilateral cleft lip and cleft palate, has dedicated a good part of his life toward educating, supporting, and informing those in this international community about the importance of tending one's emotional garden. Mixed with real-life experiences and nurturing words and meditations, "CleftThoughts" brings out into the open what others might be afraid or unable to communicate.
Book Synopsis Educating Children with Facial Disfigurement by : Jane Frances
Download or read book Educating Children with Facial Disfigurement written by Jane Frances and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-01-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children and young people who are visibly different face significant social and psychological challenges at school. Educating Children with Facial Disfigurement demystifies a difficult and delicate subject. Teachers and others working in education can use this book to acquire a better knowledge of the issues involved, as well as the confidence to handle sensitive issues and foster inclusive attitudes both in and out of the classroom. There are many causes of facial disfigurement - birthmarks, cleft lip and palate, burns, scars and serious skin conditions - so it is essential that all schools know about the issues arising from visible difference. Jane Francis examines many of these issues and demonstrates in a practical way how to deal with: * staring, curiosity and questions, teasing, name-calling and bullying * medical needs, special educational needs and related issues * creating inclusive school communities * self-perception and self-expression * career ideas, work experience and social skills for life. With illustrative case studies, lesson ideas and references to useful resources, this book will be of particular relevance to teachers with responsibility for special educational needs or pastoral care.
Book Synopsis Approaching Facial Difference by : Patricia Skinner
Download or read book Approaching Facial Difference written by Patricia Skinner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is a face and how does it relate to personhood? Approaching Facial Difference: Past and Present offers an interdisciplinary exploration of the many ways in which faces have been represented in the past and present, focusing on the issue of facial difference and disfigurement read in the light of shifting ideas of beauty and ugliness. Faces are central to all human social interactions, yet their study has been much overlooked by disability scholars and historians of medicine alike. By examining the main linguistic, visual and material approaches to the face from antiquity to contemporary times, contributors place facial diversity at the heart of our historical and cultural narratives. This cutting-edge collection of essays will be an invaluable resource for humanities scholars working across history, literature and visual culture, as well as modern practitioners in education and psychology.
Book Synopsis Psychosocial Adjustment in Children and Adolescents with a Cleft by : Kristin Billaud Feragen
Download or read book Psychosocial Adjustment in Children and Adolescents with a Cleft written by Kristin Billaud Feragen and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sociocultural norms may render people with a facial difference such as a cleft lip and palate more noticeable, and possibly more socially vulnerable. Given the importance of subjective appearance satisfaction for psychological health, knowledge is needed about risk and protective factors that might exacerbate or strengthen appearance satisfaction in the presence of a facial difference. This work is based on a large clinical sample of 661 children and adolescents with a cleft. Unlike most studies within this field of research, a thorough registration of co-morbid difficulties is provided, while their consequences for psychological adjustment and its measurement are discussed. Associations between social experiences and subjective appearance evaluations are explored, suggesting that appearance satisfaction may be enhanced by positive social experiences, while appearance dissatisfaction may be exacerbated by peer harassment. Given findings of positive self-perceptions, this work also discusses protective factors and processes of resilience in individuals with a facial difference.
Book Synopsis Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 by : National Research Council
Download or read book Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-07-23 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children are already learning at birth, and they develop and learn at a rapid pace in their early years. This provides a critical foundation for lifelong progress, and the adults who provide for the care and the education of young children bear a great responsibility for their health, development, and learning. Despite the fact that they share the same objective - to nurture young children and secure their future success - the various practitioners who contribute to the care and the education of children from birth through age 8 are not acknowledged as a workforce unified by the common knowledge and competencies needed to do their jobs well. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 explores the science of child development, particularly looking at implications for the professionals who work with children. This report examines the current capacities and practices of the workforce, the settings in which they work, the policies and infrastructure that set qualifications and provide professional learning, and the government agencies and other funders who support and oversee these systems. This book then makes recommendations to improve the quality of professional practice and the practice environment for care and education professionals. These detailed recommendations create a blueprint for action that builds on a unifying foundation of child development and early learning, shared knowledge and competencies for care and education professionals, and principles for effective professional learning. Young children thrive and learn best when they have secure, positive relationships with adults who are knowledgeable about how to support their development and learning and are responsive to their individual progress. Transforming the Workforce for Children Birth Through Age 8 offers guidance on system changes to improve the quality of professional practice, specific actions to improve professional learning systems and workforce development, and research to continue to build the knowledge base in ways that will directly advance and inform future actions. The recommendations of this book provide an opportunity to improve the quality of the care and the education that children receive, and ultimately improve outcomes for children.

Book Synopsis The Courage to Be Kind by : Jenny Levin
Download or read book The Courage to Be Kind written by Jenny Levin and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-08 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you been at the grocery store and your child points at someone who looks different and asks loudly, Whats wrong with that person? or Why does he need a wheelchair? Your first reaction is usually to hush your child and apologize to the person or hope he or she didnt notice. Telling a child to be quiet and not look can be shameful for both the child and the person with the difference. Instead of silencing our children and ignoring their curiosity, we should embrace uniqueness in a positive way. In The Courage to Be Kind, authors Jenny Levin and Rena Rosen teach children and parents how to act and respond when they see someone who looks different. Learn with Sam and Ellie as they encounter and interact with several kids in different ways. Ellie is blunt and often offensive. Sam tries to find common ground with each person and provides an example of how to behave. The dramatization of each difference includes photographs and a list of frequently asked questions so kids and parents can learn about various syndromes together. Through a series of scenarios, The Courage to Be Kind offers a tool to facilitate conversations about kindness and to teach with the art of compassion.

The book is partitioned to give insight into face processing systems, such as those employed to verify a persons identity in applied security settings, the state-of-the-art systems utilised for the construction of criminal facial composites in police investigations, and the cognitive systems for the recognition of familiar faces and bodies; disorders, focusing on people with extremely high and extremely poor face processing ability, as well as face processing in autism spectrum disorder; and cultural differences, including the development of perceptual and social race biases, the impact of cultural headdress traditions and reading directions on face perception, cultural similarities and differences in the processing of facial expressions, as well as a broader look at ethnicity, gender and age biases in face processing. The outcome is a book that provides diverse, interesting, useful and thought-provoking chapters, covering a range of topics of current theoretical and applied importance, authored by a combination of internationally renowned and exciting upcoming researchers.
Book Synopsis Pediatric Maxillofacial Trauma by : George M. Kushner
Download or read book Pediatric Maxillofacial Trauma written by George M. Kushner and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to assist the reader in navigating the potentially complex decision-making process involved in selecting the most appropriate intervention for each particular scenario that may be encountered by the practitioner or surgeon in the growing patient with facial trauma. Among the topics covered are the initial management of both soft and bony trauma, including different types of fracture, as well as the management of complications and revision surgery. The discerning practitioner will learn how to provide the appropriate intervention at the appropriate time, by taking into account skeletal growth when matching techniques to the injuries more common in the skeletally immature patient. It is also emphasized that in some cases, no intervention is advisable owing to the possibility of damaging growth centers or introducing additional scar tissue that may impede future growth. Pediatric Maxillofacial Trauma will provide key knowledge for surgeons treating growing patients, ensuring that their decisions to operate or delay intervention are evidence based.
Book Synopsis Three-dimensional Photography of Facial Morphology of African-American Children Compared to Welsh Children by : Don Franklin Norris
Download or read book Three-dimensional Photography of Facial Morphology of African-American Children Compared to Welsh Children written by Don Franklin Norris and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to compare the facial morphology of African- American children to Welsh children using three-dimensional imaging. Materials and Methods: Three-dimensional images were captured using a stereo-photogrammatic camera system (3dMDfaceTM). 107 African-American children were imaged with the 3dMDfaceTM system and were compared with 64 Welsh children which were previously imaged using two Minolta Vivid VI900 3D laser scanners arranged in a stereo pair. The subjects were between 10 and 13 years old, presented with a normal BMI, and had no major craniofacial deformity. The images were aligned, combined and averaged using Rapidform 2006 Plus Pack 2 software producing a single average shell for four subgroups (Welsh male and female and African-American male and female). The average shells were compared by superimposing the shells and quantifying and describing the differences. Results: The African-American and Welsh subjects had average ages of 11.6 years and 11.8 years respectively. The shells of the African-American males and females both have more prominent lips and eyes than did their Welsh counterparts. The noses of the African-American averages were distinctly flatter and wider than the Welsh averages. The comparison of African-American male and female groups had the highest percentage of similarity among all the comparisons followed by the Welsh male and female comparison. The least similar groups were the African-American female and Welsh female groups. Conclusions: Three dimensional imaging can be used to compare facial morphology of various populations and genders. In general, African-American children have more prominent eyes, a flatter and broader nose, more procumbent lips, and are more prominent in the center of the forehead than Welsh children. Females in both ethnic groups tend to have more prominent malar areas and a more prominent chin point than their male counterparts.
