For my photo novel project, I think about the bigger content and the objective after last tutorial. Not only that, I have also do some research for my topic.


My bigger content

  • Parents’ relationship may affect the growth of the child

The main objective for my photonovel

  • Tell my audience about the relationship between parents will affect the growth of the child

My Research

Why is it important?

  • Parent-Child relationship lays the foundation for the child’s personality, life choices and overall behaviour. It can also affect the strength of their social, physical, mental and emotional health. (Parent Child Relationship, 2018)

  • Children who have a healthy relationship with their parents are more likely to develop positive relationships with other people around them. They can establish secure bonds and friendships with peers.

  • They are better at regulating their emotions when faced with stress and difficult situations. 

  • A secure attachment with parents helps promote a child’s cognitive, emotional and social development. It also helps kids exhibit positive social behaviors.

  • The healthy involvement of parents in their children’s day to day life helps ensure that their kids can perform better socially and academically.

  • Children who have a secure and positive relationship with their parents learn essential skills and values that set them on the path for future success. (The Pillars, n.d)

Way of parents’ relationship can affect child (relate to my topic)

  1. The They They  Handle Conflict Resolution

"Our parents (or guardians) serve as the main role model of how to conduct a relationship," Christene Lozano, LMFT and founder of Meraki Counseling, tells Bustle. "For instance, if our parents resolve conflict by having yelling matches, we may learn that yelling is necessary in order to solve conflict."

  1. How They Express Our Emotions

"If our parents didn't express their emotions, we may have difficulty learning how to identify and express our own emotions," Lozano says. "Considering that the ability to recognize and express our emotions is essential for a healthy relationship, our parents not modeling this will inevitably affect how we relate to and manage conflict with our own partner."

(Laken Howard, 2017) 


How does the relationship impact the child?

  • children show distress when their parents fight. (fear, anger, anxiety, sadness)

  • higher risk of experiencing health problems, disturbed sleep, 

  • difficulty in focusing and succeeding at school. 

  • They may "externalize" their distress in the form of  aggression, hostility, anti-social and non-compliant behaviour, delinquency and vandalism

  • have poor interpersonal skills, problem solving abilities and social competence.

  • perceive themselves and their social worlds more negatively

  • have more negative pictures or internal representations of family relationships.

  • children are often emotionally abandoned at a time when they especially need help making sense of their feelings of turmoil. (Lisa Firestone, 2010)


Tips to strengthen parent-child relationships

  1. Constantly express your love for your children

  2. Give them attention

  3. Eat meals together

  4. Validate their feelings

During the tutorial, my lecturer told my that I can try to survey other people to get different information from different angles. For example, I can do interview with my friends and parents. Maybe I can get different information from it.
