SOCIOLOGY 1
In this essay, the analysis will be based on the development of young children from
diverse backgrounds. It will further focus on its relevant contemporary issues and impacts
dealing with such young children. The purpose of the essay is to determine the habits of
biting which prevails amongst the children from birth to the age of three years. So, the
research will stress upon the theories of development by various theorists such as Piaget,
Skinner, Bruner, etc along with the conclusion.
The stages of development in the young children vary in accordance with the distinct
backgrounds they are belonging to and also dependent on their parents and the family. It has
been identified that there are different factors affecting during the phase of the development
such as by the physical qualities, family background, cultural behaviour, heredity, language
etc. In the early years, the child begins to learn and develop within a short time period (Frost
& Mills, 2019). However, the experience of growth differs by evaluating the effects and the
means of support, type of environment and the livelihood of the children.
The process of development from the time of birth through later age is not only at a
great rate but it’s also very progressive. The initial learning skills and the proper development
strategies provide a well-built base to the children that help in gaining high-quality
achievements (Smith, 2006). The young children grow vigorously when they learn and have
positive aspect from those relationships amongst which are developed.
The issues of diversity and equity have consistently impacted on the development of
the young children and their activities. The interpretation of the challenges is from the
economics, cultural and social perspectives. The nurturing of the child is mainly based on the
nature of the adult who is providing the security and the support which is dealt under the
social perspectives (Gregory, 2017). Then, early childhood education relates to being an
essential part of the social welfare system that ensures social justice and equal opportunities

and the redistribution of wealth. Also, the children belonging from the lower-income families
and racial minorities groups that are relatively experiencing low-quality care compared with
that of the middle and the high-income remuneration.
While dealing with the economic view which led to the crisis that resulted in the
globalization and de-industrialization. Such created an impact on early childhood care and
education for those children who are being at risk due to the social disadvantage (Braun &
Tenenbaum, 2018). This will leave an impact on the better adaptation for the school, the
workplace and the society.
The educational approach towards those children associated with disadvantaged
backgrounds. Each and every child irrespective of their disadvantaged background must be
provided with equal care and rights whether white or black i.e. termed as racism. So, the
child its parents, family members are entitled to develop their diverse exposure within its own
identities (Isaacs & Susan, 2018). The race and its identities are outcomes of discrimination
and oppression with creating tremendous impact on the development of the child.
The developments of the young children from the time of birth to the age of three
years are most likely into the habit of biting each other. The habit of biting is an aspect in
terms of the development process which is found in most of the children. The reason for
biting amongst the children of this age occurs due the aggressive nature and emotions. The
children who have intense behaviour so, this becomes more difficult for them to control and
manage their emotions this results sometimes in biting the other child (Egert, Fukkink, &
Eckhardt, 2018). The expression of such difficult feelings such as the frustration, anger,
confusion and fear, etc within the young children has developed in the form of biting. The
frustration in the children regarding their own things leads to the biting of the other as a form
of behavioural change.
