Discussion Board Post # 3———————————————————————————–1) Pick one of the domains of infant development (physical, cognitive, and social emotional).- Describe the domain you selected and key components within that domain.- How might the domain of infant development be relevant to the work of counselors? You may reference all domains, but be sure to also specifically note the domain you selected earlier in the prompt.2) Describe attachment and why it matters in infant development.- Then, reflect on the most recent parent-infant interaction that you have seen. If you have not seen one recently, search on YouTube for relevant videos.- When reflecting upon this interaction, how would you describe the parent’s attention to the child? How does the child respond to the parent within the interaction?- Continuing to reflect upon the interaction, what did you see that fostered positive attachment? What did you see that threatened positive attachment?3) Review the Case Illustration 4.1 on page 184 about Rachel.- Which risk factors do you identify? What possibilities concern you about these risk factors?- Describe the role of culture in Rachel’s case. How might you demonstrate cultural competence while navigating this situation?- The text recommends providing Rachel educational materials on normal infant development. Conduct an Internet search and share one possible material. Describe the material and what makes you believe it can be useful for Rachel.4) The “cry-it-out” method was once an encouraged parenting practice.- Why is this method no longer recommended for infant development?- If you were counseling a parent struggling with infant sleep issues, what techniques might you offer them?5) Imagine you are counseling a parent who has recently returned to work from maternity leave. This parent describes guilt for placing her 4-month old infant in daycare. She is considering finding a part-time job in order to stay home with her baby more, although she is also concerned because she cannot afford it.- In your opinion, what are the primary issues to address?- What additional information would you need to develop a treatment plan?- Identify possible interventions in addressing this parent’s issues
