slide7. 6 Values of Nurturing Parenting<br>
slide8. Inappropriate Expectations Construct A of the AAPI Beginning very early in the infant’s life, abusive and neglecting parents tend to inaccurately perceive the physical, emotional, and intellectual skills and abilities of their children.
Parental expectations exceed the capabilities of each of their children.
Despite individual differences, children are expected to perform within the same standards parents have set.<br>

Feelings of failure
Cannot please others

Insensitive to their children’s need as well as their own needs
Fail to create a caring environment that is conducive to promoting children’s emotional, social, intellectual, physical, spiritual, and creative growth.
Fail to bond and form early attachments.<br>

Spanking, hitting, whooping, beating, popping are all variations of the same theme: physical pain caused by hitting.<br>
slide17. Common Effects of using Physical Punishment on Children: Children identify with the act of spanking as an act of caring.
Children hold repressed anger towards the one doing the hitting.
Children develop anxious and angry attachments.
Children use violence as a way of solving problems and replicate the CP as a parent.
Children learn CP is normal and pass the act on to another generation.<br>

Common occurrence when parents lack the support of a partner;
Common among single parents;
Common among parents who are very needy themselves.<br>
slide22. Common effects of role reversal on children Children fail to negotiate the developmental tasks of childhood.

slide25. Oppressing Power & Independence Construct E of the AAPI Children are not allowed to challenge, to voice opinions, or to have choices.
Children are told to “do what they are told to do” without question; “are better seen and not heard”; “are too smart for their own good”; are “too big for their britches.”
Children have little to no voice in family activities.
Are consistently told “no” without the obligatory “yes”
Fail to learn the art and science of negotiating, compromise;
Are told “don’t make waves; and do what the others are doing”<br>
slide26. Common effects of oppressing children’s power and independence This demand for compliance to parental authority has many limitations:
