Describe the expectable environments of young and older children
What will be an ideal response?
For young children, an expectable environment requires protective and nurturing adults, as well as opportunities for socialization within a culture. For older children, an expectable environment includes a supportive family, contact with peers, and ample opportunities to explore and master their environment (Cicchetti & Valentino, 2006). Moreover, responsible parenting involves a gradual shifting of control from the parent to the child and the community.
