One of the most important concepts discussed is that of Cognitive development of a child. Cognitive development is basically the way that humans acquire their knowledge threw different sources and experiences. This is extremely important because it is this development at an early age that will have a profound effect on who this baby becomes in adulthood. When children see their parents doing certain things the adolescents have a tendency to react to a situation much like they saw their parents do.

When people come in contact with a "bad egg" or a problem child it is no wonder that parents are often blamed. This can be seen in many different cases such as my room mate. He grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth and his stay-at-home-mother did almost everything for him. He now doesnt know how to take the garbage out, wash his clothes, or even shower hardly. It is this early development that is so important to human beings, as it will shape their future.

There weren't any pressing questions brought up in this topic except for what exactly is the right way to raise a child. No one will ever agree completely although there are certain things that we know will harm a child and certain things we know are healthy for a child. Other than this, I wonder if there is any sure way to raise a child to be perfect and well behaved. Maybe someday in the future?
