3. ANSWER The personal characteristics of the child can influence the quality of the relationships that will be formed with parents and other significant people, these include:
 The personal characteristics of the child. Before a child is born, parents have an image of how the child will be. Sometimes the real does not fit the image: for example
 The child may not be desired sex
 The child may have a disability or a chronic illness which requires long stays in hospital.
 Personality and temperament- temperament is part of personality – it refers to the way in which we react to people, object and situation. Three general temperament types have been identified in children:
 Easy children are usually adaptable, consistently happy and pleasant and are predictable in relation to routines
 Difficult children are often negative, upset or withdrawn. They are slow to adapt to change and tend to be fussy eaters and irregular routines
 Slow to warm-up children tend to withdraw In new or unfamiliar situations and can be quietly negative and slow to respond
Taking a child’s temperament into account can help carers to anticipate how a child might react or respond to situations and enable carers to adjust expectations and choose guidance and interaction strategies appropriate for an individual child. Temperament impacts on relationships and emotional self-regulation, such as persistence at tasks, the ability to cope with challenge or frustration and the ability to control one’s behaviour. Temperament can also be influenced by experience, particularly by the way in which behaviour is managed. It is also influenced by the child’s cultural context. For example, Asian children are thought to be more restrained than western children, which is a reflection of beliefs and child-practices.
during the second year of life, toddlers physical and language skills are developing rapidly. Toddlers have a strong desire to do things by themselves. Being independent gives them a sense of pride and satisfaction. Toddlers are finding out about what they can do, where they can go and the effects of their actions and behaviour.
4. ANSWER Siblings play a unique role in one another’s lives that simulates the companionship and personal importance of parents as well as the power and assistance of friends. Because siblings often grow up in the same household, they have a large amount of exposure to one another, but this relationship tends to be more egalitarian than with other family members. Furthermore, sibling relationships often reflect the overall condition of cohesiveness within a family. The content and context of sibling relationships varies between cultures. In industrialized cultures, sibling relationships are typically discretionary in nature. People are encouraged to stay in contact and cooperate with their brothers and sisters, but this is not an obligation. Older siblings in these cultures are sometimes given responsibilities to watch over a younger sibling, but this is only occasional, with parents taking on the primary role of caretaker. In contrast, close sibling relationships in no industrialized cultures are often obligatory, with strong cultural norms prompting cooperation and close proximity between siblings. These cultures also extend caregiving roles to older siblings, who are constantly expected to watch over younger siblings.

Children's culture plays a big role in their development. For instance if they are in a culture where females are subservient to males this will be evident in the child from the role models they have seen (eg; all the women they have in their lives (Mum, aunty, grandmother) doing as they are instructed by males and averting their eyes etc. Also, for those where the culture is that you don't make eye contact or only speak when spoken to, can impact on how they will act at your centre. this can impact on their independence, how forceful their personality etc.
