Hello all,


I have recently begun the second year of a Masters degree in Child Psychotherapy and am looking for a kind, local family who might be willing to help me with a module of my Masters...


The particular module focuses on personality development in young children and involves observing a young child (aged between 2 ? to 3 ?) for one hour a week over the next 9 months. I also have a series of lectures and seminars on the subject, but the practical experience of observing this happen in a real child is the most important part of the module.


I?m aware that the the idea of having your child ?observed? might sound a little strange or even daunting, however the observations are incredibly informal and are really just to help me understand how personality develops in normal, happy children.


If you think you might be at all interested in taking part or have any questions, please get in touch. If necessary, I can also provide references, a letter from my Uni and recent CRB form. I am also more than happy to meet with you and talk things over before expecting you to commit.


Thanks for reading this and hope to hear from you.


Anna




A little bit more about me: My name is Anna, I?m 25 and grew up in Dulwich. I have a BSc in Psychology and hope to train as a Child psychotherapist once I have finished my masters. I have lots of experience working with children and currently work in a special needs school for children with autism, as well as working as an Assistant Psychotherapist in a primary school for one day a week. I am also in the middle of a 2 year observation (very similar to this one) of a little boy from 0-2 years old. He is just about to turn 1 and I first made contact with his mother over the EDF when she was 8 months pregnant. Everything is going so well with that observation that I thought I would try my luck here again!

Hi, the child can probably be up to 4 at the start. The age range we were advised to look for is quite vague - the child should be no younger than 2.5 at the start and shouldn't really have turned 5 by the end of the 9 months. I hope that makes sense.

    • We do need growth and investment. But cutting spending, is the opposite of investment - degrading transport, increasing waiting lists, etc. The analogy of government spending as a household budget is a very poor one.  Government financial management is probably poor, but every single prospective government says they'll find billions in efficiencies and then fail to find them. I don't believe there is as much waste as people think.  We need to tax unproductive assets, raising money to invest in public services / paying down debt, (or else encouraging people to move their money in to productive investments). 
    • we actually need growth. It may be counter intuitive, but we need investment.   my example is about poor financial management, be it personal or central. I'm referring to poor government financial management.
    • This is to conflate household budgets with government budgets. They are very different things  a large part of the anger felt across the country is the decline in public services after a decade and a half of austerity.  You cut more you get more ugly anger  Of course people need to be persuaded to pay more - but that is only realistic path. You cut more you will find out the hard way
