Researchers have also found that children do not always respond better in settings where they received one-on-one attention from a hired caregiver, rather than being cared for as part of a group. "Children who were cared for where there were groups of children at least three other children showed some benefits," said Marion O'Brien of the University of Kansas, who is leading the study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health. "They were more cooperative with their care provider. It appears that having a group of children is a very positive factor in child development." However, O'Brien says that a mother's relationship with her child is still a more important factor in determining a child's behavior than the type of child care he or she receives.

109. Children's Department: Recognizing Healthy And Unhealthy Sexual Development In C Article examining what is normal sexual development and behavior in children and teenagers, and which behaviors might signal that a child is a victim of sexual abuse, or acting in a sexually aggressive manner towards others. By Dr. Phil Rich. http://www.selfhelpmagazine.com/articles/child_behavior/sexdev.html

RECOGNIZING HEALTHY and UNHEALTHY SEXUAL DEVELOPMENT in CHILDREN by Phil Rich, Ed.D., MSW In an age when childhood sexual abuse and victimization is increasingly on our minds, it is important for parents (and other caretakers) to understand what is "normal" sexual development and behavior in children and teenagers, and which behaviors might signal that a child is a victim of sexual abuse, or acting in a sexually aggressive manner towards others. In fact, sexual development and sexual play are natural and healthy processes in children, from toddlers through childhood and into adolescence. For infants and toddlers, this usually involves body sensations, cuddling and touch, and playing with toys. Even in the earliest of days, babies and toddlers touch and rub their own genitals, and even as infants boys experience erections. By early school age (5-7), children are interested in body parts and functions. Some sexual play may begin, and concepts of love and affection begin to develop, evolving into behaviors and questions that continue developing into later childhood (8-9 years old). But it is important to distinguish between age appropriate and age inappropriate sexual behaviors. Many children engage in sexual behaviors and show sexual interests throughout their entire childhood, even though they have not yet reached puberty. However, normative (or expected) sexual behaviors are usually not overtly sexual, are more exploratory and playful in nature, do not show a preoccupation with sexual interactions, and are not hostile, aggressive, or hurtful to self or others.

This article was written for The Childhood Brain Tumor Foundation Germantown MD Behavior Problems in Children who have Undergone Treatment for Brain Tumors by Mary Ann McCabe, Ph.D. Children and adolescents who have undergone treatment for brain tumors may be more likely to exhibit behavior problems than their peers. There have been relatively few formal studies of this issue, and behavior problems have often not been included in studies of neuropsychological outcome following treatment. Studies which have been done, using parent rating scales, suggest that children who are newly diagnosed with brain tumors have a higher incidence of social and adjustment difficulties than well children, but not necessarily greater than children who are newly diagnosed with other forms of cancer. So far research has been unable to show a link between specific treatment variables (e.g., cranial radiation) and problems with behavior. However, studies have begun to suggest that weaker social adjustment and more behavior problems may be related to younger age at the time of treatment, various types of family stress, and perhaps greater time since treatment. Careful study of the incidence of behavior or adjustment problems in these children, or their complex relationship to treatment and other variables, will require multiple sources of information (parents, teachers, children themselves) collected over time from a large group of patients with different types of brain tumors.

Its purpose is to develop physical, mental, social, and environmental indicators for tracking health and quality of life in Anchorage. HAI has developed a core set of indicators and is working to expand the core set each year. The main medium for the indicators is a web site that provides instant access to the information and includes brief explanations and additional resources for each indicator. See the Healthy Anchorage Indicators at http://www.indicatorsak.org . HAI works with the public health and social services community to develop and maintain the indicators and provides periodic reports to the press, Municipal Assembly, public, state policy makers, and the state legislature.

How Kids Grow: Defining Normal Behavior Birth through Age Twelve by Elaine M. Gibson If we know what to expect at each stage of development, it is easier to decide if our child's behavior is "normal." These stages are approximate. The age isn't as important as the progression. Some children reach a stage faster, some reach it slower. Generally, all kids go through much the same things. Knowing what to expect can help parents deal with the frustrations and problems that are quite normal for each age. Behaviors that get stuck in one stage are cause for concern, otherwise, don't worry. One can get by parenting easy kids with common sense and love. Parenting difficult kids requires love, compassion, endurance, and skill that is not common. Fortunately, the necessary skills can be learned. A parent's skill won't change the child into an easy kid, but it will prevent problems from getting worse. To go directly to: Infancy Six Months Nine Months One Year ...

The Daily Parent Home A Newsletter for Working Parents Summer 1998 Why Does My Child Act Like That? Introduction All parents wonder at times whether their child's behavior is normal. Children at every age exhibit embarrassing or frustrating behaviors: whining, tantrums, bathroom talk, swearing, or bossiness. These behaviors test your patience and can leave you at your wit's end. As much as you love your child, his actions can make you feel uncomfortable and vulnerable to other people's criticism. Parents ask: "Why is he doing this?", "Will she outgrow this?", "What should I do?" For each challenging behavior, parents struggle with what is normal, what is acceptable, and how to deal with it. Sometimes it's difficult to tell the difference between unacceptable behavior and normal development. Is This Behavior Normal?
