Own Values In Relation To Early Childhood Environment

[CarolinaRodriguez]

consider your values in relation to the early childhood environment

Example Scenario: Swearing

Eden, an educator was quite surprised at her reaction to kevin's outburst at morning tea. kevin (3 years, 7 months) swore at Eden when she asked him to sit on his chair and not wander around while eating. while Eden responded to Kevin's outburst in a professional manner, she was inwardly quite shocked by his 'colourful' language and found herself thinking that kevin's parents must be very poor role models


a) Write a sentence to describe your attitude and bilief in relation to the following statements:

Children using manners- saying please and thank you, waitting while adults are before speaking themselves etc...

- children using manners are the clear evidence that parents are modelling good manners and language at home.

An eight week old baby being in care days a week.

- apparently the 8 weeks baby's mother is not having enough support from her family or partner so that she must work a lot during weekdays as a result she also has to let her baby in care 5 days a week.

A parent using care for their child when they are taking the day off work to go to a Melbourne cup party.

The parent is not sharing the free time to play and understand the baby's needs

b) Reflecting on your personal comments have you identified any ethical issues or dilemmas?
Who could you approach to discuss these points with?

i would approach my supervisor or director in the first instance and discuss these issues with them, i'd also ask them for advance and opinions to find the best to act in face of each situation. i'd ask their suggestions to continue supporting the good habits of the children.

Please help!! those are my answers but my English is not strong enough and i am not too sure if they are okay. i'm stuck with this. don't know what sentence i should put to describe my attitudes and belief in relation to this.

Yes, you're on the right track... You would discuss your points with the Director...

In regards to Ethical Issues for a parent going to the Melbourne Cup party and sending their child to care, sometimes parents need a break and spend time with others, it's fairly common in Australian culture...
