Social-Emotional Concept Maping, (personal story : My parents are…

- - - - Early self-understanding involves self-recognition. Children take approximately 18 months of age to recognize their body parts in a mirror. A sense of "me" appear later in the second year and early in the third year.
      - Young children think that the self can be described by many material characteristics, such as size, shape, and color. For example, four-year-old Sandra," I'm different from Jennifer because I have brown hair and she has blond hair."
      - In early childhood, Children often describe themselves in terms of body image, material possessions, and physical activities. Physical activities are also a central component of the self. For example, preschool children often describe themselves in terms of activities such as a play.
    - - Children are convinced that they are their own person.
      - During early childhood, they use their perceptual, motor, cognitive, and language skills to make things happen. They have a surplus of energy that permits them to approach desirable areas even if it's dangerous and increases the sense of direction. At this stage, on their capability, they excitedly move out into a wider social world.
      - They begin to hear their inner voice of self-observation, self-guidance, and self-punishment. Widespread disappointment at this stage may lead to the release of guilt that lowers their self-esteem.
      - When they are given freedom and opportunity to initiate motor play, such as running, bike riding, sledding, skating, and wrestling, it supports their sense of initiative. Initiative is also supported when parents answer their children's questions and do not make fun of or discourage them. When children feel their motor activity is bad, asking question is a nuisance, or their play is silly, then they often develop a sense of guilt over self-initiated activities and go on through life's later stages.
- - - - Parenting Feeling: Genuine expressions of warmth—a friendly smile or look that conveys empathy and good humor—physical affection; respectful, considerate treatment; tenderness; a willingness to be a real person with the child rather than acting the role of "mother" or "father"; and a sensitive attunement and responsiveness to the child are all examples of parental love.
