INTRODUCTION
A life cycle defines the phases of organism experience as it goes through its lifetime.
Henceforth, the stages and duration of life stages is varied at each phase (He, Sun and Jiang,
2020). Life cycle is inclusive of the developmental stages.
The present report is based on the case study on the Moore family that aids to explain the
purpose of the study. Thus, assignment will cover the issue on case study.
Furthermore, assignment will be based on discussion on different stages of the life-cycle.
Hence, assignment will analyse the different requirements at varied points of life-cycle. Lastly,
theories will be applied in terms to explain the dynamics of Moore family focussing on Jacob.
MAIN BODY
TASK 1
Discussion on different phases of the life-cycle.
Life cycle is termed out as series of changes that an individual face during the given
developmental stage to life. In addition to this, life-cycle development process is filled with
varied experience (Richardson and Smiseth, 2019). Thus, it can be stated that the life experiences
shares the similarities and they are unique in may ways. Therefore, individuals experience
similar aspects of growth and development from birth to death. Life-cycle development is termed
out as the process that deals with progression through a series of differing stages of development.
In the present case study, the learning disability of Jacob has been defined as he suffers from
Diabetes. His parents were addicted to drink and due to this he was not getting proper care in his
growth period. Child development termed out as natural growth and learning that occurs in all
children from birth to adulthood and this is inclusive of physical, intellectual, social and
emotional growth.
Human development can be called out as lifelong process beginning before birth and
extending to death. Thus, physical changes largely drive the process as this is inclusive of the
wide range of the cognitive abilities that advance and decline in response to the brain growth in
childhood and reduce function in old age.
On the other hand, psychological development is termed out as influenced with physical
growth as changes body and brain together with environment, shape and also aids to investigate
relationship with other individuals ( San-Francisco, Sopelana and Minguez, 2020).

Different phases of life-cycle-:
Social development- It is termed out as the development phase and can be termed out as
learning process that must be clearly monitored and guided by the guardians of child. In the
present care study, Jacob is six and Berry is 9. Both required careful social development as they
both were having learning disability. Jacob also has diabetes issues. With the help of
encouraging child to get involved in the role plays aids to boost social development as this needs
verbal and non-verbal communications (Huang, Tseng and Lin, 2020). Henceforth, this can be
stated that the process of social development in the children is quite slow and this uses to
stretches over the many years. Child social activities enhance with passage of time and this is
called out as socialization process that continuous throughout the life.
Emotional development- It is stage that inclusive of ability to recognise, express and manage
feeling at different stage of life and to have the empathy for feelings of others. Therefore,
development of these emotions can be inclusive of positive and negative emotions (Alatinga,
2019). In order to enhance the emotional learning disability Berry and Jacob needs effective care
and handling of their parents. With help of proper care the effective development of the child can
be possible.
Cognitive development- This is defined as development that refers to how a person perceives,
thinks and gains understanding about the things. It is stage when chide comes to his
adolescence's is the changing process of thought, learning and perception as child develops from
infancy to adulthood (Hu, Wang and Wang, 2019). Jacob and Barry needs special focus as they
have suffers from learning disability. This is crucial for care givers to set good examples of
behaviour.
Physical development- It is development that is inclusive of developing control over the body
and this includes physical conditions. Thus, parents of Jacob and Berry were addicted to drinking
problems (Hu, Wang and Wang, 2019). As they do not focus on their children properly.
Therefore, peak of physical development happens in childhood and this is crucial time for
undertaking the neurological development of brain and body coordination that encourage
specific activities such as grasping, writing, crawling and walking etc. Therefore, physical
development cope up with stress and this also aids to promote growth and development and
develops self esteem.

TASK 2
Discussion on analysis of needs of Jacob's at different points of the life cycle
Need is termed out as something that is very crucial for human to live a healthy life.
However, needs are distinguished from wants (Hu, Wang and Wang, 2019). In case of need, the
deficiency causes a adverse outcome and this leads to dysfunction to an individual. Need is
defined as an essential requirement. In addition to this, analysis of the needs with help of
undertaking discussion on theory such as Maslow's and this is outlined as-:
Maslow's needs-
This is termed out as hierarchy of needs basically talks about how all the human have
varied level of needs for survival. It is defined as nmotivation theory that is inclsuive of the five
tier model of human needs (Hu, Wang and Wang, 2019). In order to better understand that whats
motivates the human beings , Maslow proposed needs of human and this is organised into a
hirecharchy. These are outlined in following context as are-
Psychological needs- It is termed out as the psychological needs that can be fairly apperant. It is
inclusive of things that can be huefuk for the survival. Henceforth, this is inclusive of
requirements such as food, water, shelter, homeostasis snd Breathing etc. Under this, Jacob is 6
year and also suffering from diabetes. On the other hand, Berry is 9 and along with Jacob she
also has learning disability. Their parents were alchohol addicted and they they left their
children. It affects the growth and development of children. Additionally, basic requiremnets
includes nutrition, air and other things etc.
Security and safety needs- The requirements for security and safety are the two primary
components. In addition to this, individual wants controls and order in their lives. As per the
given case study, the Jacob and berry is facing learning disability and they require special focus.
At the very small age their parents left them with their eldest child candice. So, local authorities
decided to tool all the children with them as they were all risk of significant harm. This steps of
authorities can helpful as this can aids to provide safety and security to each child. In addition to
this, security is inclusive of financial, health and wellness and safety against injury. This can be
one of the effective way to provide proper learning to children.
Social needs- The all children were left along without any guidance of elders. This could lead
them to situation of significant harm. Henceforth, to carry out proper handling and caring social
needs plays crucial role and this also inclusive of love, acceptance and belonging. In addition to

this, the requirement for emotional relationship assist to drive human behabiour. In order to cope
with it, this can affect the life cycle development of Jacob and Berry. Thus, local authorities took
the effective steps to carry children with them so that they can able to render proper learning to
each individual. Thus, lonliness, depression and anxiety these all can affect their process of
learning in significant aspect.
Esteem needs- This is the fourth phase that termed out as need for appreciation and respect. At
time, when all need at the bottom three levels have been satisfied at this condition the esteem
needs begin to play one of prominent role in terms to motivating the behaviours of individuals.
This is effectively significant to gain the respect and appreciation of others. In addition to this,if
the Jacob and berry feel that they are valued by the others and feel that thet are making an
contribution to the world. If both of them leads to professional activities, academic
accomplishment and team participation that this can aids to enhance the learning process of
individuals. Therefore, the esteem and social levels can be called out as the psychological need
of the hierarchy.
Self actualisation needs- This is stage that termed out as feeling fullfilled that is potential to
enhance the learning of the individual. In addition to this, this can be stated that one of the
unique feature of the self actualisation is that this aids to helping others and also assist to
enhance the learning process. Thus. Learning development can leads to bring out the systematic
process and this can helpe to undertake better learning in future course of action.
Discussion on needs of Jacobs-:
The jacob is child who is 6 years old and suffering form the disease called out as
diabetes. His parents Elaine and Michael belongs to the white backgroud and they both were
addicted to alchohol. Henceforth, Barry and Jacob have four brothers and sisters whose ages
ranges from 14 weeks to 12 years. In addition to this, it can be stated that Berry and Jacob both
have learning disabilities and they have special education needs statement for emotional and
behavious difficuties. As per the given case study, Jacob has diabetes. This kind of issues creates
the long standing concern about the children care. This has meant that children often witness
their father physically abusing their mother. In order to enhance the learning process of the Jacob
and Berry this is crucial to provide effective learning facilities by facilitating better educational
assessment. Their parents left them alone and this leads to carry out the consequence and due to
this needs not being met.

Analyse how jacob needs are interrelated and how these needs relate to future
development-:
Jacob at the age of 6 facing the issue of diabetes and that has lead them to major issues
that has affected his life development stage in the negative aspect. If the local authorities take
him with them then it can be one of the effective way to enhance their learning and this can aids
to improve the learning process of each individuals. With use of enhancing their learning this can
lead them to develop their future learning and this can be one of effective way to bring out better
future development.
Disscussion on socio-economic satus of family and impacts on their needs-:
Socio-economic status termed out as economic and sociological combine that is inclusive
of total measure of work experience and family economic and social position in relation to
others. Therefore, socio-economic status mainly depends on combination of variables,
occupation, education, income, wealth and place of residence. It is termed out as classification
that is indicating the close relationship among a person social status and his financial standing.
As per the given case study, this has been clearly stated that Barry and Jacob come from a
large family. In this, Barry is 9 and Jacob is 6. Thus, their parents Elaine and Micheal were
addicted to drinking problems. In addition to this, Barry and Jacob have four brother and sisters
whose ages ranges from 14 weeks to 12 years. Barry and Jacob both have learning disabilities
adnd they also have special educational needs assessment for emotional and behaviour
difficulties. Jacob was suffering diabetes. This was one of huge barrier that was affecting the
growth and development phase of him. At the small age their parents left him. These all are can
be termed out as long standing concerns about the chid care. Therefore, the concerns enhance as
physical care of the children became the worse. In addition to this, it can be stated that Jacob was
not getting his medication on the continual basis due to his low socio economic status of family.
Due to this, the disease as diabetes was not properly controlled. Due to fostering lesrning
development process of each child the local authorities took all the children into care because
they were at risk if significant harm.

TASK 3
Application of theories of life-cycle development.
Piaget theory can be termed out as cognitive development that defines that how a child
constructs mental model of the world. It is theory that put consideration understanding and
nature of intelligence. Therefore, piaget's stages are termed out as context-
 Sensorimotor stage- This is the stage that is termed out as the ability that form a mental
proportion of the object. Therefore, the cognitive development which occurs during this
period takes place over relatively short period of time and this is also inclusive of great
deal of growth.
 Pre-operations stage- As per the given case study, Jacob was in the phase of pre-
operational stage. At this stage children uses to think symbolically and also learn to use
words and picture to represents the objects (San-Francisco, Sopelana and Minguez,
2020). Henceforth, this can be stated that children at this stage tend to be egocentric and
struggle to see things from others perception. Therefore, all are getting better with
language and thinking and this tend to think about the things in concrete terms.
 Concrete operational stage- In this stage, children uses to thinking logically about the
concrete events. If Jacob gets effective learning process than his thinking process can be
developed and he can able to understand future course of action in well and effective
manner.
 Formal operational stage- This is the stage in which young adults begins to think
abstractly about the hypothetical problems. At this stage teen uses to get the logical
thinking approach, the right guidance can aids to promote future well being. This is the
last stage of the Piaget theory as this inclusive of increase in logic and this has the ability
to use deductive reasoning.
Freud theory-
This is termed out as theory that is based on the case studies and not empirical research.
This theory will be applied to define the Berry learning process with help of special educational
assessment. Henceforth, it is outlined as-:
Oral(0-1.5 years of age)- In this, it can be termed out as fixation on all the things are oral. If not
satisfactory met than there is the likelihood that can leads to develop the oral habits or
behaviours.

Anal (1.5 year to 3 years of age)- This is term that indicates the stage that is primary relates
with developing healthy training such as how to eat, toilet etc. It aids to create basic development
in the process of child growth (Richardson and Smiseth, 2019).
Phallic (3-5 year of age)- It is termed out as development of healthy substitute that leads to
sexual attraction towards the parent of opposite gender.
Latency (5 to 12 year)- It is the age in which berry belongs to. This is sensitive age in which
this is normal to dormant the sexual attraction towards the parents of opposite gender.
Genital (12- adulthood)- In this, it can be stated that the all the task from the above four stages
of development are tends to integrated in the mind and this allows to healthy feeling and
behaviours. If Berry receives the best learning process than she can also develop the effective
behaviour habits.
Henceforth, this can be stated that during these stages of development this can be said
that experience can be filtered with the use of three levels of the human mind. In addition to this,
this leads to form the structures and the inherent conflicts that arise in the mind that personality
and this allows to shaped the individual habits properly (He, Sun and Jiang, 2020). According to
Freud theory, this has been also stated that there is an interdependence among these three levels
and the each level serves a purpose in personality development. This is termed out as the theory
that has the ability in which an individual enables to resolve internal conflicts at specific stages
of their development and this also helps to determines future coping and functioning ability as a
fully-mature adult.
CONCLUSION
Hereby, it can be concluded that Life cycle stage development is one of the crucial
process that helps to identify the changes of the each phase. Thus, present report is based on case
study of the Moore family that aids to explain the purpose of the study by identifying the issues.
Thus, assignment will cover the issue on case study.
Furthermore, assignment has outlined the discussion on different stages of the life-cycle.
Hence, study has covered the analyse the different requirements at varied points of life-cycle.
Lastly, theories as Piaget has been defined that explain the dynamics of Moore family focussing
on Jacob.
Recommendation-

On the basis of above report, the suggestive measures has been outlined in following
context such as-:
 Local authorities must render proper caring and learning facilities to each children so that
their future learning can be fostered. With help of this future learning to each child can be
developed effectively and efficiently.
 Jacob is facing with disease as diabetes. Therefore, he was not taking proper medication
of diabetes and due to this diabetes do not get controlled. This is one of crucial barricade
that has impacted the learning of Jacob.
