a.
Children’s needs –
Basic physical care: Warmth, shelter,
adequate food and rest, grooming (hygiene) and protection from danger.
Affection: Which includes physical contact,
holding, stroking, cuddling and kissing, comforting, admiration, delight,
tenderness, patience, time, making allowances for annoying behaviour, and
general companionship and approval.
Security: Continuity of care, the
expectation of continuing in the stable family unit, a predictable environment,
consistent patterns of care and daily routine, simple rules and consistent
controls and a harmonious family group.
Stimulation an innate potential: By praise
and encouragement; curiosity and exploratory behaviour. By developing skills
though responsiveness to questions and to play, by promoting educational
opportunities.
Guidance and control: To teach adequate
social behaviour which includes discipline within the child's understanding and
capacity and which requires patience and a model for the child to copy, for
example in honesty and concern and kindness for others.
Responsibility: For small things at first
such as self-care, tidying playthings or taking dishes to the kitchen and
gradually elaborating the decision making that the child has to learn in order
to function adequately, gaining experience through his/her mistakes as well as
his/her stresses and receiving praise and encouragement to strive to do better.
Independence: To make his/her own decisions
first about small things but increasingly about the various aspects of his/her
own life within the confines of the family and society's codes. Parents use
fine judgement in encouraging independence and in letting the child see and
feel the outcome of his or her own capacity. Protection is needed, but
over-protection is as bad as responsibility and independence too early.
b.
Kinds of neglect - Physical neglect
Failing to provide for a child’s basic
needs such as food, clothing or shelter. Failing to adequately supervise a
child,or provide for their safety.

education.

Failing to meet a child’s needs for nurture
and stimulation, perhaps by ignoring, humiliating, intimidating or isolating

Medical neglect
Failing to provide appropriate health care,
including dental care and refusal of care or ignoring medical recommendations.
