As we grew and lived in Taiwan and constantly faced money issues, we were not able to enter higher academic phases and we both graduated from middle school. We had to work hard in order to compensate this lack in our education in order to achieve our current position (my husband is now a successful businessman and fortunately, we can provide our family with everything it is necessary). Therefore, we understand the importance of education in succeeding and this is why we encouraged our son to pay constant and serious attention to school. He has always been among firsts in his class and we must say that we have never received complaining from his teachers.
Secondly, implying our son in extra-school activities made him develop a series of social skills. He was a constant presence in summer and winter camps, in festivities organized by school outside regular classes. Therefore, my son can very well relate to strangers and people from different ages and can easily...
He treats his peers with respect, he is communicative and friendly and he was never implied in fights or other types of conflicts with his colleagues.

All in all, I must say that our son has never been a problematic child and, more than that, he had constantly made us proud, not only in terms of education, but also in terms of attitude and life style. We assure you that he would not be able to cause you difficulties or any kind of troubles and we hope that our statement will allow him enter your high school that I personally consider very appropriate for my son's further development.

What, then, should play encompass for children? Most psychologist believe it should be a combination of activities that offer children the physical (running, jumping, etc.), intellectual (social skills, norms, ethics, knowledge), and emotional (compassion, empathy, friendships) tools to become successful (Dixon, 2010). Structured play, team sports and organized events, allows children to engage with other children and adults with whom they might not normally interact. Unstructured play encourages creativity, imagination,
Child Clinical Intervention Part I Child Abuse Physical abuse of children occurs throughout every social strata, although there may be an increased incidence among those living in poverty.

Child Abuse in England Initial Information The bruises on Clara's upper arms are indicative of something serious that the health visitor, if she, indeed, has been seeing her for two and a half years, should have noted or anticipated.
