Document Summary
The top 3 things infants need come directly from the infants" social world. The other things they need are experienced in a social context. Relationships are adaptive, affecting physical health and well-being through their influence on basic biological processes. Vertical relationships protect children when they are young and foster the development of basic physical, social, cognitive skills. Most important vertical relationship is the infant-caregiver one. Has an impact on infants" and toddlers" development as well as contributes to development in early childhood and beyond. Horizontal relationships are those characterized by partners (siblings, peers, friends) who are relatively similar in roles, abilities, and knowledge. Children refine and apply basic skills, learn about cooperation and competition, and eventually achieve psychological intimacy. Children"s living arrangements differ due to race, and ethnicity. Parents begin to relate to their child before birth when they choose the name for their baby.
