Boundaries and Expectations
Choosing from the Boundaries and Expectations Assets:
-Which do you believe is the most important in the healthy development of middle childhood?
-State at least 3 reasons why you chose this asset.
I believe the most important asset in the healthy development of middle childhood is the family boundaries. I believe that the way children are brought up is what has the most affect of what path the child ends up taking in life. With family boundaries the child knows their limits before breaking them, and if they are broken- then they learn through their mistakes and learn not to do it again. If they don't have these boundaries then the child may rebel against the parents or other adults and may fail in other aspects of their lives. If the parents are positive role models then they have someone to look up to and that may help modify themselves into somebody wonderful and they'll want to be a model for their peers. On the flip side of that idea, if the parents are negative role models then they may travel down the hard road where they come in contact with alcohol, drugs, negative peer pressure, self-esteem problems, etc. If school and friends don't satisfy the child's needs for compassion, love, and care- then home is where their story's begin.

i deff agree that family boundries is the most important thing becacause this is where the child will experience love and compassion and thats really important in life. if the child didnt get those things then how can the child show love and copassion. Also that parents need to be a positive role model for the childern becasue that is who they look up to, and they need to kow whats right and whats wrong. morg totally agree with you grily great job. :)

Hey Morgan!
Nice job. And I do agree that family boundaries are the most important asset in the healthy development of middle childhood. I like how you mentioned how children will know their limits when given family boundaries. I definetly agree with you and know that when these limits/ boundaries are set by the family it will help the child in future successes. I also agree with if a child has a negative role model in the family they will fall down the wrong path, choose the wrong friends, and will not be successful... Family boundaries are the most important asset in the healthy development of a child, and these boundaries help children recognize the difference between right and wrong, and will help them in their future to be very successful. Awesome job!

heyy Morgan!
i agree 100% that family boundaries is the most important. with a good, strong family the child learns all about rules and concequences and how to follow them. with this knowledge, the child can apply it all throughout life. also the child will be able to succeed at all assets while developing. the child can use this knowledge in many other things such as school and sports. GREAT JOB!!! =)
love, Sarah

i agree with you 100% on htis. if children establish boundaries at home the children will know exactly how far they can "push their limits" without getting in trouble for it. Also with these boundaries, the child will be very well behaved and who doesn't want that?? nice job girl.
