Love Withdrawal

Love Withdrawal 

It teaches us on threatening to remove love, or even temporarily from the caregiver and child relationship. According to Maslow's Theory of Human Needs, all people need to feel loved in order to reach optimal development and self-actualization. When caregivers threaten to take away love, they cause stress and instability within a child. Love withdrawal can send the wrong message that love is unsteady and can be used as a power tool. 

Love Withdrawal: Often used by parents, the love withdrawal technique wagers their love and attention over the chance of misbehaving.

This article shows us the four styles and their effects in love withdrawal.

Kohlberg, Lawrence

Lawrence Kohlberg

Lawrence Kohlberg teaches us about the three different levels of thinking that people go through in making a moral decision. The first level, people make decisions based on whether or not they will be punished or rewarded. Second level, people's moral decisions are motivated by laws and how they might be perceived. In the third level, some teens and many adults make moral decisions based on principles such as justice.

Lawrence Kohlberg (October 25, 1927 – January 19, 1987) was an American psychologist best known for his theory of stages of moral development.

This shows us an article about Lawrence and how everything started, it gives us a little more about his life. It helps us explain why did he do this theory. Helps us understand more on what he was trying to do and how he tested on the children, teenagers and adults. It also tells us about the three different levels of Kohlberg's Theory.

This video is showing you how the theory works. How he did it on the children, it shows articles and other stuff. 

Mainstreaming

Mainstreaming 

Mainstreaming relates to class, because there's children that are mainstreaming. They have special needs who show the ability to keep up with the curriculum into regular classrooms. Inclusion is a term used to describe the placement of special needs students into a regular classroom despite their inability to keep up academically. Inclusion focuses on the needs of the whole child.

Mainstreaming: in the context of education, is the practice of educating students with special needs in regular classes during specific time periods based on their skills. This means regular education classes are combined with special education classes.

The picture above shows mainstreaming, one of the three children shown in the picture has inclusion. One of these student was put into this regular classroom despite his/her inability to keep up academically. Not these three children are exactly alike. They way they learn, their natural abilities, and experiences are unique.

Quality child Care

Child care is a place where adults are there to take care of your children/child , Treat them like kids of their own . There are different types of child care . (Ex: in-home child care, family child care, center-based child care, and school-age child care.)
In-Home child care is when children are in a familiar , comfortable setting. (Nannies for example)

PARENTING - to be or act as a mother or father to someone. https://www.google.com/#q=parenting+definition
You cannot be too loving. "It is simply not possible to spoil a child with love," he writes. "What we often think of as the product of spoiling a child is never the result of showing a child too much love. It is usually the consequence of giving a child things in place of love -- things like leniency, lowered expectations, or material possessions." http://www.webmd.com/parenting/features/10-commandments-good-parenting
