Influences Detrimental to Parenting and Child Development

Bad behaviors and failures of children are often regarded as mistakes of parents, not children, but the external influence on parents is less considered.

They chose the area where their family lives and the school where the children live. They also affect their colleagues who are involved with their children.

Parents are the main cause of social and emotional development in early and middle / late stages of early childhood.
