Document Summary
A child"s problems must be considered in relation to multiple levels of influence individual, family, community, and culture rather than be attributed to any one factor. In this chapter we consider theories and research findings regarding influences that shape the child"s ongoing development in many different ways. Begin by looking at the case of jorge.

Discussions with the parents revealed english was his second language, and he was yelled at when he said he didn"t want to go to school or do homework, mother believes he had a learning ability.
