[Get Solution] Socioemotional Development

Nature Vs. Nurture in Childhood When it comes to child development, there have been many debates on how nature, nurture, or a combination of both affect a child’s development. You will write a 5-6 page APA paper that will analyze how both the environment (nurture) and genetics (nature) can either have a positive or negative effect on a child. Once you choose a topic, your goal will be to debate both sides of the argument (nature vs. nurture). For example, if you choose physical development as your topic, you will need to choose at least two theories/arguments that support how nature (theory/argument #1) and nurture (theory/argument #2) influence a child’s physical development. You will also include a case study/child example that will support one of your theories/arguments discussed. You can include a personal example if one of the children below does not apply to your topic.  Choose a topic.
