I’m working on a social science multi-part question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

As we all know, a child’s school experience has the power to influence his or her development. But, this is mediated by the realities of the child’s family. Explain how this is the case and describe at least three examples.

2) As your text states, “children can hurt other children.” Describe the characteristics that tend to be found among victims of bullying. Next, describe the characteristics of bullies. Remember, be thorough.

3) “Appropriation and reinterpretation of adult ideas begin at an early age.” Explain what this means and discuss three examples of it.

4) Children who grow up in single-parent families (90% of these in the U.S. are mother-headed families) are at a greater risk for some challenges in childhood and young adulthood. This does not mean the mother causes these to occur, so what are the actual factors that contribute to the greater risk? As you address this issue, first describe some of the risks that are higher and then explain why they might occur.

5) Socialization research is quite complex and examines all types of sources of input a child receives while growing up that teaches her or him how to function as an individual and in society. One type of socialization is called “consumer socialization.” What is this, what are the sources of input do children receive that is of this type, and what are the results of consumer socialization in children’s lives into adulthood?
