THE ROLE OF THE MOTHER IN A CHILD'S DEVELOPMENT DURING THE CHALLENGING PERIOD FROM AN INDEPENDENT CHILD TO A MATURE INDIVIDUAL

Regardless of whether the person responsible for a child is the mother, the father, or any other family member, it is essential to conscientiously realize that the process of upbringing should begin with oneself. In a child’s consciousness, the family environment serves as the first strong foundation that shapes their entire existence, contributes to the development of their thinking, and plays a crucial role in their growth into a highly qualified professional in a particular field. The atmosphere within the family and the surrounding environment significantly influence the child’s cognitive, emotional, and social development.
