Analyse the impact of professional relationships on children and young people
Hi. The above question seems so straight forward but so difficult to make sense of!! I can not find one piece of information that makes sense and gives me the answer. I've jotted down extracts from other sources but cant find any information to make sense of the extracts?? if that makes sense. I've gone back over relationships and used my level 3 DCYPW book but that's all old ground covered elsewhere!!... this is my final unit so getting excited and despondent as I can now see the light but not quite there yet!!..............
"Analyse the impact of professional relationships on children and young people"
Children learn to build relationships with adults, show mutual respect, courtesy, understand how to behave in certain situations and learn to communicate effectively as they grow up around positive role models.
the range of ways children and young people may respond to professionals, eg uncertainties about how to behave or relate to professionals, possible feelings of powerlessness, power relationships; positive impact these relationships can have on the child or young person and their future success eg build sense of self-esteem, offer support, provide opportunity for child or young person to express their feelings, concerns and ideas
power relationships - ask yourself 'who ought to be in control'? ... you? ... child?...* parent? manager? Who has the authority and power to make decisions and are these done in the best interest of the child, the parent, the seting itself?
Does this cause conflict, discrimination, prejudice, does it empower, support equality, recognise and value individuals, encourage contributions, celebrate diversity, champion rights, protect and safeguard?*
