infancy childhood theoretical perspectives

THE OVERVIEW

For this week, identify two different theoretical perspectives discussed in your textbook chapters 3-4 (for example Piaget, Vygotsky, Freud, Systems, Eco-Systems Theory, Learning Theory, etc.) and use those theories to discuss how a social worker might guide an intervention with Marcus and his mother (see scenario below).

THE DISCUSSION

The Scenario:

Marcus is a 24-month-old toddler experiencing another separation from his mother who is a single parent enlisted infancy/childhood the in the Army. Marcus’ mother has been deployed three times since Marcus was born and he has spent each separation with a different caregiver (aunt, grandmother, and a friend). What would these changes mean for Marcus and his mother and why?

In your posting discuss how these changes might impact Marcus and his mother, and why a social worker would intervene, if at all. Then, justify how the two theories you selected might potentially guide your intervention with Marcus and his mother.

*Be sure to include at minimum two citations/sources (one must be your textbook and the other

must be an outside scholarly peer article.
