Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: (1) As discussed in earlier chapters, this period of growth and development is rapid noticeable changes occur monthly, weekly, and, in some cases, daily (Swim & Muza, 1999). (2) Physical, social, emotional, and cognitive developments are more interrelated for infants than for older children. (3) Infants are more dependent upon a consistent relationship with a caregiver to meet all of their needs. (4) Infants have no effective skills for coping with discomfort and stress, so they are more open to harm.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: As a caregiver you can expect families to represent a great deal of diversity: single parent, grandparent as head of household, gay/lesbian parents, adoptive families with Caucasian parents and Asian children.
