Codes of Ethical Conducts in Early Childhood Development.

Question 1. Discuss Five Standards of Ethical Behavior in Early Childhood Care and Education.

Ethical behavior involves applications of good values. In early childhood care and education, trainers and other individuals working with children should have distinct values. These values are not the same as those needed to work with adults. Those working in an organization with young children should have the following ethical values; One should understand that childhood is a stage that is different from any other and needs the respect of self-esteem. One should also consider growth and development factors in a child and appreciate family support because children is more understood in family or community (Brown, C. S. et al. 2017). The pride and diversity of children should be respected and establish a child’s potential. 

Question 2. State Some Principles That Make Ethical Responsibilities in Children.

Children should also have particular principles that help them relate well with each other, teachers, and the community. The first responsibility is for a child to take and continue education seriously. The children should also appreciate the effort of their colleagues and that of the dependent adults. Children should embrace these and other principles for a smooth stay.  

Question 3. State Some Ethical Responsibilities to Parents regarding early childhood.

Parents and other adults are mainly required to build the bond between the children and themselves. They are expected to contribute Highly to the success of a child’s development stage. The adults also tell the traditional mode of living, and hence they act as role models. 

Question 4. State the Principles for Ethics in Early Childhood in children.

Children are supposed to support each other’s rights and learn to play with other children. They are also supposed to recognize and respect unique qualities and abilities in their settlement and other principles. 

Question 5. Discuss Ethical Responsibilities to The Society in Early Childhood.

Society should give children equal chances in days of assisting. The community is also supposed to be familiars to each other for the children to follow in their footsteps.

This test gives a more straightforward understanding of ethical issues in early childhood development. The best way of showing growth, in my opinion, is by identifying principles that the children, the teachers, and the community have acquired and making analyses (Brown, C. S. et al. 2017). The method is among the traditional techniques used, and it works well. I would incorporate rules which, when one breaks, will be considered guilty.

Question A

Two cultural forces are responsible for shaping the reactions of people in neighborhoods: decent values and street values. Decent values are attached to the middle-class and are taught by families that represent the culture, values, and mindset of the mainstream expectations, standards, and behavioral goals (Siegel 194). While the middle-class families are better off compared to their street-focused neighbors, they are still working poor. Their values are strategically placed on hard work and self-reliance with hopes of a brighter tomorrow for their children (Siegel 194). For example, both parents work 3-4 jobs combined to give their children a better education with hopes of a better tomorrow. In complete opposite of decent values, street values are representative of the results of despair in inner-city lifestyles and are opposed to the mainstream thought of a given society (Siegel 194). The street culture pushes individuals towards deviance, opposing the law, and creating a counter culture. Elijah Anderson asserts that civil law is weak street justice fills the void. For instance, the violence in the streets is so bad that 20-year old young adults describe their life as a “kill or be killed” type of existence.

Question B

The code of the street demands that individuals have a dominant attitude and temperament. The informal rules that govern the attitudes and ways of responding to a challenge are often brutal and very violent, sometimes fata (Siegel 94). Anderson points to the same theme, asserting the role of respect to be of critical consequences in the way people relate in the streets. According to Anderson, respect defines an invisible hierarchy, understanding how to treat the next person, whether to challenge their position, and being ready to live with the consequences of the actions. Respect, when attained, gives people the power to survive unbothered in the streets. For example, one way to gain respect is through violence. The availability of drugs and weapons in the community also worsens the situation, because it demands one to be ready to act in the way of the street. The code of the street demands that no one involves the police because the street takes care of its own, a mindset that has destroyed life for young black people, yet used as one way of gaining respect.

Question C

Theoretically, for the community to reflect collective efficacy, there needs to have a change in how the neighborhood views law enforcement. Collective efficacy means that community members are able to control the behavior of groups and individuals in their neighborhoods. Controlling the behavior of people will allow the community to create safer and more orderly societies. For the community to reflect collective efficacy, more people will need to adopt decent values. Theoretically, this can be attained by raising the status of communities to middle-class working families. For example, if people are more concerned with getting the best for their families, working hard to pay off that mortgage, getting their kids through private schools, and similar decent-valued perspectives, then the overall collective efficacy of the community will be achieved.

Peer 1: Ariel

I agree with your perception of decent values as a significant identifier within the American middle class. The values advanced through the working poor are what are termed as American by mainstreaming the ideas of self-reliance, sacrifice, hard work, observation and abiding by the laws, and pursuit of education. I particularly like your introduction of religion into these values, because it plays a vital role in defining the said value and giving them more power. Street values and respect have created a buzzword, which you mention in your work; street cred. I like how you define it simply as a response to various situations that are used to define worth and personhood. On collective efficacy, do you think the concept goes beyond a community into larger societies such as a nation’s ability to maintain order?Peer 2: Sandra

The idea of mainstream thought that is embedded in decent values are important in defining a society as you have mentioned. I agree with your position that the definition of these values is largely left to the working poor, or the middle class. Particularly, your presentation provides an important perspective that the values held by these working poor allow them to navigate life, as evidenced by their status in their communities and also their understanding of respect and code of the street. By having decent values, these communities do not neglect the rules of the street, but rather steer clear of their path. Your focus on collective efficacy as a tool to enhance the education system is refreshing. I think ore can be achieved by societies if they focus all of their energies on ensuring that decent values are a part of the education system for the working poor communities.
