Introduction
Children development
Argument: We should help children
Who would object: Society, because people are the ones who pay taxes in order to provide this help.
Objections: It is very expensive to afford help
Social services caseloads are full already
Social services cannot take more children
RBTL.Why should we help kids: Society would become worst if they do not help
If society is afraid of terrorism we will help children not to pass through this.
We as the society we are, we should help children. Each child in this world is worth it, each child is different, each child has passed through difficult situations, some harder than others.The people who needs to know this is our society in general, parents, but specially people who work at social services, who are the ones highly prepared with more capacity to help them. Society must help children because in certain way they are the future, if we let children who have been affected by war or by their familiar environment, that is the way that later on people will tend to be and react according with their traumas if they were not helped or attended since childhood.Children with PTSD who attended to war, have a high rate of traumatize. Also a lot of children have been affected by their social environment and by their parenting behavior.However, a lot of people such as the social services can argue that it is highly expensive to provide them support, another thing they can argue is that the caseloads are full and it is not possible to take more children. I insist that even though this can be true up to a certain point, there are more solutions that will help adjust more effectively this children, helping members with also make our society even better.

Childhood development
Describe your research:
Some of the key words I used in order to find the articles were: Childhood development, Parental behavior, Children during the war, Children's behavior, academic environment.
At first I used to put the whole sentence in order to find the article I wanted, but I did not see too many options, so what I did was to write key words and as I was seeing the findings I changed some words but still relating with the topic.
A lot of articles came up, but I chose the ones I found more interesting. During this research I was thinking how can I argue those articles. One of them is about how were the children during war time and what were the consequences after seeing a lot of deaths, how their behavior got affected and now they behave now. Another article is about parents behavior, when they get involved in school districts, how they can help their child. For the last article I chose is called 'Stepfamilies and children's development", this article talks about how children can behave and be affected by stepfamilies.
The way I decide which articles to use was the fact that I had to search for articles that in certain way they are related, articles that talk almost about the same topics, I did that because I thought I can be easier to come up with a conclusion.

Bullying is done by a tons of reasons, one reason can be that sometimes the person who is doing it could have problems in his/her family environment, which this leads the child to bully his peers. On the other hand, we have the child whose self-esteem is weak, and have none power over himself, he/she do not know how to defend him/herself. As a result, the child is more likely to feel depressed, which this can affect its academic succeed, and his/her communication skills. The positive about this study is, the fact that parents can help to decrease this problem.
This article talks about how Bullying affects someone’s life and how Parents play an important role in the life of a child who is bullied. Bullying can define how a person could tend to be in the future, it affects his/her personality and the weaknesses that person has will get stronger because of the imbalance of power. Bullying has been projected all around the world, there are different kind od ways to bully a person, it can be either by cyber bullying via mobile phone or internet, also bullying in the school environment, or in the family environment. However, this study focuses more about the European children who have been affected by the bullying, leading them to commit nonsuicidal self-injury and to have a suicidal behavior, according to the article, “20 to 30% of all students are affected by bullying as victims, perpetrators, or bully/victims,” in other words in Germany this percent of children have been affected by bullying. As it is shown in this study, bullying affects in a very high psychological way a person, specially a child who is starting to build his/her sel-esteem. On the other hand, parental participation can buffer the negative effects of bullying victimization.

Million of children have suffered due to the fact that they were part of the war, the most common disorder is the "Posttraumanic stress disorder (PTSD)," but this is not he only one, it also is shown that they present mental health problems due to the violence they saw. This article discuses ways to help children such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET). The purpose of CBT is to engage children to talk to a therapist, and NET is the practice where children must expose their own story about what happened to the during the war. In order to make this study possible they took up to 80 children between the ages of 9-17- year- old immigrant children who suffer and participated in war. They were divided between two groups, one into the NET group and the other one into the CBT group. The children were divided into equal sizes. This therapy appears to be effective helping these children of war as well as the children who did not attend to war. As a result, this study helps the children to achieve the effectiveness in decreasing trauma- related symptoms.

Children are a sensible human beings, they are growing and developing themselves over time passes. The way they can understand things better is by expressing themselves. Therefore, parents must be there for them, but sometimes this can not be as easier as it sounds. The article, "Providing Evidence- Based Help to stepfamilies" shows us the importance of parents and the big role communication plays between the parent and the child. This is the case of a 20-months-old child that was diagnosed with autism; a language delay in the child. This child was living in a stepfamily. He certainly needed help from his "parents", this boy was not able to respond to verbal requests and had showed a low capacity of spoken language. His parents did everything to help him by supporting him with getting more social interaction in his daily life. This is a good example of a stepfamily's behavior towards their child, but not always is the same. A lot of children struggle with the fact that the relationship with the parent is very different as the relationship the child could have with the other parent. Another example is when the child needs a special and fully attention from his or her parent, but sometimes the structure of a stepfamily pulls them apart. These examples are a real and important behaviors that sometimes parents do not realize they are doing it. There are always solutions for this, parents could try to spend more parent-child time in order to decrease these misfortunes that later on the child can resent it, such as showing serious problems with themselves, and having difficult times socializing.
