What Are The Benefits Of Chapter 8 Parenting God's Way

Improved Essays
After reading chapters eight and ten in your book "Parenting God 's Way", I agreed and opposed many of your parenting methods. I agree that you should always make sure you make God relevant in your children 's lives and when parenting. He is the number one role model they should follow and aspire to be like. In chapter eight, the first topic you touched on "Parents, The First Teacher", is very true. The baby begins its ability to hear in the second trimester, so the conversations and sounds you surround yourself with impacts the baby.

This reminds the parents that if they introduce education and school in a positive manner, they have a better chance at striving for excellence. Parents need to realize their kids are not going to adapt to school immediately. Preparation needs to be a must before children start school. If not done, they may have a hard time adapting to a new scheduled environment away from the parents. They also need to know what is acceptable in school, such as, the rules, who the authority is, and so forth. Parents need to remember that kids want to be like their parents, so they mimic what they see and hear what their parents do. For example, if the parents curse excessively, their child is going to think it is acceptable to do so. Therefore, if they are at school and they curse it is going to be hard to explain to them why they can do it but their

I didn’t realize it had gotten so bad that children don’t know how to be chaotic anymore. That is like a child’s main purpose in life. I feel like we have hurt our future generation so baldly, that there may be no going back. I think of my own generation the 90’s children.…

    According to Annette Laureau, sociologists and writer of “Unequal Childhoods”, asserts that the working class and poor class parents use natural growth whereas middle class and upper middle class parents use concerted cultivation. She doesn’t imply that one style is better than the other, but that the styles are different based on their social classes. Parents are here to steer their children in the right direction. Concerted Cultivation is more prone to following footsteps of what was taught, Natural Growth allows the children to be more prone to make mistakes and lose their path. I agree with Annette Laureau (Unequal Childhoods, p. 2) when she says that “concerted cultivation… causes a sense of entitlement which plays an especially important role in institution settings…”…

    From the age of two, children are put into the school system, where they will remain for a quarter of their lives. Schools become a safe place for students where no matter what is going on at home or in their community, they know that when they go to school they are safe. The idea that teachers provide a positive, safe environment for children despite what is going on at home is prevalent in Lynda Barry’s, “The Sanctuary of School.” She mentions the positive effects on students, as their teacher’s involvement is important to ensuring their learning process runs smoothly in the classroom, despite what is happening outside of it. I agree with Lynda Barry’s stance stating teachers become a mentor for students, but I believe she overlooks the negatives…

    On the other hand kids must spend time with your parents to be able to mimic them and formulate stems to their own ideas. Yes, many parents want to see their kid grow and succeed as they did, but many also want to see them achieve bigger and better things than they have. An excellent way to help them grow in this way is to let them go and explore to build ideas and beliefs of their own. Even if their actions seem random, unproductive, and silly at the time, it may be a stepping stone on the way to something greater. At the end of the day, it is important to spend time as a family doing something together building that family…

Often time babies begin to walk by eighteen months, but sometimes they begin at nine months. The short story, “The Lesson”, by Toni Cade Bambara is filled with all types of metaphors that lead to one thing, the theme. Every child is teachable, but each child learns in their own way and at their own pace. The author expresses this in three ways: the lessons that Miss Moore teaches, the way she teaches, and how the children react to the lessons.…

    The Family Tree to My Dreams In my eyes, my culture is all the aspects behind my family and the people that help define who I am. This may include the events that have happened to past generations, behaviors of my relatives or beliefs that have been passed down to me. In the book, Is everyone really equal?, the authors, Sensoy and DiAngelo, define culture as “the norms, values, practices, patterns of communication, language, laws, customs, and meanings shared by a group of people located in a given time or place”, expressing that culture can be seen on the outside of a person such as how they dress or the language they speak or underneath the skin such as attitudes toward certain situations or body language (Sensoy and DiAngelo).

    The author notes that parents play a big role child language development. It is important when a child begins the imitation of sounds (Shelov 197). The author suggests that speech is just one form of language in addition to the “sign language.” The author notes that children with hearing impairment can be taught how to speak, but not all will learn how to speak well (Shelov 531).

    The foetus develops a preference toward their mother’s voice and the language they hear her speak. It picks up on the rhythm, tempo and tones of the spoken language, (White, F., Hayes, B, Livesey, D, 2010).

There have been case studies of children who have been deprived of language when they were young, who even after being exposed to language for long periods of time do not develop their expressive and receptive language to an acceptable level.
