discussion 5

The chapters on middle childhood introduce many issues and problems which can follow a child throughout his/her life (obesity, school problems, self concept issues, effects of divorce, etc.)

Pick one issue from the chapters and explain 3-5 things you learned about that issue (new or unique information—not something you knew already). Then suggest what you could do to make sure the issue did not cause long term problems for the child. Make sure to draw specific concepts and findings from the text as you answer this last part. Actually make a numbered list of suggestions and cite your support.

By the way, tell us why the information was “new” or “unique”.
