Just by joining, The resilient factor in this case is the irony of a child from a neglected background wanting to do things right Kumpfer, In relation to the person environment resilience factor, it is of paramount importance to ascertain how the child attempts to perceive, either passively or actively, the threats and challenges they continuously face Kumpfer, In regards to the two children, Gary and Jay, they can be regarded as being very resilient in regards to their general self characteristics which comprise of such internal strengths like physical and emotional competency.
To term Gary and Jay as weak would be inappropriate. They are a perfect example of strength. Having to constantly face neglect at home, lacking parental supervision, living in a state of abject poverty and still finding a reason to go to school all typically exhibit high level of resilience.
With the help of protective factors in protective situations, the children could end up displaying positive outcomes regardless of the numerous negative situations they were accustomed to. To ensure that the two children, Gary and Jay have a possibility of a better future, it is entirely important to incorporate the common practice framework of risk and resilience to their situation.
It is important that children are not constantly exposed to negative influences in their lives through repeated occurrences of risk. It is important that the government ensures that women, especially mothers are protected from physical violence from their spouses, so that the children will also be protected.
In the current case study, social services should have intervened to ensure that Jackie was safe from physical and mental abuse from Ralph.
More importantly, it would have been better if Jackie reported Ralph and his violent tendencies to the authorities. Schether insists that it is extremely important that the community creates safety for both the mother and her children in terms of physical and material needs in order to eliminate the risk that they both face. It is also important that children experience warm and nurturing relationships with their parents and other caregivers as such relationships could have a positive impact on their lives Schether, Parents should be helped to understand how important the lives of their children are.
In relation to the case study, there is a high chance that Jackie concentrated more on the challenges she faced than on the joy of raising her children. It would have been very beneficial to Gary and Jay if their medical doctor or the teachers and other caregivers had stepped in to advocate for their rights and to also advise their mother on how to spend quality time with her children.
On the other hand, the teachers and the school counselor tried their best to be warm and receptive to the children by giving them the attention they yeaned for. If Jackie and Alice had considered giving the children quality care, this would have possibly resulted in better performance at school.
Additionally, it is important to ensure that young children and the families have access to basic needs. Schether states that poverty in early childhood is more harmful compared with poverty in other ages.
In this case, poverty refers to the state of being hungry or homeless. Since it is not very possible to ensure that all members of the society are without poverty, it is important to ensure that their daily basic needs like food, shelter and clothing are adequately provided for. Economic issues like lack of employment could actually be the contributory factor to violence in men, meaning that joblessness could actually make a man resort to violent tendencies.
In the case study for instance, there are no instances where it is mentioned that Ralph goes to work. No wonder he had the time to constantly harass his wife and her children. In the case of Jackie and her children, social aid could have come in handy in terms of providence.
This way, the children would be assured of at least a meal a day and Jackie would not have to worry by sticking to a man who violated her. Additionally, it was also very important for Alice to appeal for help to take care of the large family. She could not even afford to hire an attorney and on one occasion, she failed to seek for medical help for the children.
This should not have taken place if she declared her status openly and sought for help. This way, her income would have greatly improved therefore leading to an improvement in the cognitive, social and emotional competencies Schether, According to one of the risk and resilience issues, it is important to ensure that young children along with their families have access to culturally respectful and welcoming service systems. In addition, there is also the need to ensure that such service providers have the necessary skills, cultural knowledge and positive attitude to assist such children and their families.
Schether is of the view that the psychological consequences of domestic violence in all women are similar. In the case of Jackie and her family, it is evident that she comes from a background where women are maltreated and treated with contempt. This explains her delinquency during her childhood years. Her marriage history and that of her sister also come into light regarding the same perspective.
Both their boyfriends are violent and abusive. In the case of Gary and Jay, the exposure to this kind of life systems actually negatively impact on them.
What they actually need is a home full of love and positivity to help them grow up as responsible beings in the community. The environment in which they currently live in is not in any way helpful to them.
To solve this problem, it is important that agencies come in. Through careful assessment of the situation, it is possible to train the family, mainly the care givers, on cultural competence. It is important that young children who are exposed to violent and risky behavior receive the right intervention strategies early enough. Knitzer states that there is need to promote positive parenting so as to ensure that children have an access to good health care and other specialized services.
To ensure that the child protection services are not involved, it is extremely important that early intervention be is sought for children who are experiencing domestic violence. In the case of Gary and Jay, It could be a little too late to avoid the intervention of the child protection services.
