Passionate about helping children living in poverty. I am a children's book author & social worker. Proverbs 16:24
Author: crinamorpho
I am deeply passionate about working with vulnerable children, adults, and their families, with a focus on education, parenting, mental health, and wellbeing, as well as empowering people to begin their own personal journeys and find their path in life. I grew up in a disadvantaged family, and that experience shaped who I am today, giving me resilience and a strong sense of purpose in this amazing world we call home. My journey has led me to this path, and sharing my lived experiences is my way of encouraging others to believe in themselves and put their faith in God. Even in the darkest moments, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. This is what I am passionate about, and what I continue to build through my work and my writing.
Developmental milestones are behaviours, physical skills, communication skills seen in infants and children as they grow and develop. Crawling, wahing, walking are all considered milestones.
As the child grows between 1-2 years old they will start to learn social skills through play, copying others.
Their cognitive and language development will grow quickly asa they absorb more and more from the world around them.
Emotional development
-seeks comfort when upset, afraid
-Assists another child when in distress by giving hugs, patting, giving the dummy, bottle, or so on.
May lose contron of self when tired or frustred (tantrums).
In the last couple of days, we all ( including my Grandma from a village in Romania) checked the news every hour to find out which is the winner TRUMP OR BIDEN? Why so curious, interested? I am wondering if Americans watched the news when IOHANNIS was elected? I imagine a person in his/her sixties from Florida with the eyes on the news ready to find out, well it’s kind of funny! We all know that BIDEN is the new President of the USA (2020) 60 years ago John F Kennedy was elected as the President of the USA, 35th President of the United States. Unfortunately, we all know how JFK was assassinated, there are a lot of theories about his assassinations which you can read more about it. One comment I found about JFK ”I wonder if Kennedy was born with that charisma he had, I’ve always wondered if his vanity got him killed. Still one of our greatest presidents” Q.K I think all Presidents have their strategies, plans, secrets, and also o private, personal life which is known only by few.
”Un om educat se deosebeste de un om needucat, asa cum un om viu se deosebeste de un om mort”. Aristotel
Copiii au nevoie de educație, dar mai ales de îndrumare, sfaturi și încurajare.
Dacă educația este cheia succesului, ce facem cu acei copii care nu pot accesa educația, sau mai bine zis cei care nu dau pe la școala, abandonează timpuriu educația din diverse motive, am cunoscut copii care voiau să meargă la școală dar părinții nu-i trimiteau.
Cred că educația pe care o ai te poate ajuta mult în viața, experimentez asta in fiecare zi. Am avut parte de părinții conștiincioși, care puneau preț pe educație, asta până când am avut eu 8-9 ani, de atunci lucrurile au început să i-a o întorsătura nu prea indicată, un tată bețiv și o mamă nepăsătoare= dă-o încolo de educație! Practic, eu am ales să continui mersul la școală deoarece îmi plăceau mult unele materii (engleza, biologie, geografie). Practic unii părinți arunca aceea cheie în adâncul Mării.
Unii oameni au avut succes și fără a avea diploma de licența, master, doctorat. Dar ceea ce nu ne zic ei, este faptul că au avut o familie, un prieten, o cunoștința care i-a susținut, au lucrat mult și cu resurse puse la dispoziție. Cel mai bun exemplu este Bill Gates, dar el a avut norocul de a fi American, nu Român.
Cred cu tărie în educație, îmi doresc mult ca acei copii care trăiesc în sărăcie să aibă acces la resurse, să continuie școala și după 8 clase.
At the end of each year, I raise funds for poor children, since 2017 I have focused on Christmas time as it’s the period when the family is supposed to get together around a table and celebrate the meaning of Christmas.
Well, for some children is not like that, they simply have no food, the parents are absent and no one is there to cook for them.
Some families are living in poverty, not enough money to buy food, presents and so on. That’s why, I am trying with your help to raise some funds so we can make bundles of food, gifts for kids and then send it to them.
96 more days until Christmas…
Together we can change their day, make them smile 🙂
Părinții cad de multe ori în capcane când vine vorba despre a cumpăra copiilor jucării, reclamele de multe ori nu specifica la ce anume ajută jucăria promovată de ei.
Ajuta copilul să își dezvolte imaginația și creativitatea, simțurile și abilitățile logice, promovează cumva abilitățile motorii și fine? Sunt câteva dintre caracteristicile care ar trebui promovate în același timp cu promovarea jucăriei.
Să ne gândim bine, atunci când se cumpăra o jucărie, cine a făcut primul pas, copilul sau părintele?
Cred că fiecare părinte are o povestioară asemănătoare ” Mihaela, mama a 2 copii cu vârste cuprinse între 5 și 7 ani, într-o zi de sâmbătă, s-au dus toți 3 la cumpărături, Izabela de 5 ani vede o păpușă Barbie într-un ambalaj sclipitor, roz, fetița apucă jucăria de pe raft și o pune în coș, mama pare îngândurată și îi spune fetei că mai are înca 3 păpuși Barbie acasă, chiar o vrei și pe asta, Izabela?
Alex 7 ani, pune ochii pe o mașinuță de pe un raft, mașinuța e mare și cu luminițe, sunete și ambalaj albastru, fermecător, băiatul pune și el mașinuța în coș, acum toti 3 se îndreaptă spre casa de marcat, mama este părinte singur din cauza aceasta finanțele lor sunt limitate, dar cedează ușor la dorințele copiilor”.
Credeți că păpușa Barbie sau mașinuța cu luminițe și sunete vor contribui în vreun fel la dezvoltarea lor? Din contră, copii se plictisesc repede de jucării, ceea ce noi trebui să învățăm copilul este BUGETUL, FINANȚELE, ceea ce în țara noastră nu are prea mare importanță. Nu zic să nu cumpărați jucării copiilor, dar cumpărați doar ceva educativ, ceva ce le stimulează dezvoltarea, cum ar fi un joc din lemn cu forme geometrice, puzzle, instrumente muzicale, Lego.
Mai sunt unii părinții care cumpără jucării fără să întrebe copilul ce pasiuni are, sau să se gândească la nevoile lor, pur si simplu cumpără jucării cu grămada, le dă copilului pentru o fericire de 2 ore. Unii părinți pur și simplu oferă copiilor lor jucării cu gândul de a le ocupa timpul, le dă jucăria și-i lasă in sufragerie să se joace, după o ora copiii își pierd interesul în jucărie, și găsesc interesantă cutia, ambalajul jucăriei, se joacă cu aceea cutie zile întregi.
Știți, dacă vreți să salvați bani, și să petreceți timp de calitate cu copilul, puteți cheltui 0 LEI, și să aveți un timp distractiv alături de copil. CUM?
Faceți împreună aluat – plastelina ( playdough) colorat, aveți nevoie de făină, sare, ulei și colorant alimentar, apă.
As the Premier said, we are going into a second LOCKDOWN until 2nd of December. I am anti Lockdown, they will resolve nothing, like with the first one, it’s a waste of time, economy, and the poverty is rising. “The COVID-19 pandemic is estimated to push an additional 88 million to 115 million people into extreme poverty this year, with the total rising to as many as 150 million by 2021, depending on the severity of the economic contraction”
Abortion is when a pregnancy is ended so that it doesn’t result in the birth of a child.
Talking about abortion can be emotional, nightmare, a traumatic experience, it’s also a sensitive subject to talk about it.
There are a lot of people against abortion, charities that are trying to help the pregnant women in order to save the fetus life. I read some news recently about poland ”100,000 people took part in the marches in Warsaw, despite a ban on groups of more than five across Poland, the Government banned the abortions, the are legal only in cases of rape, incest, when the woman’s life or health is at risk or if the fetus is irreparably damaged”.
There are currently 26 countries where all abortions are illegal, regardless if the pregnancy is a result of a incest, rape.
What does the bible say about abortion?
The bible doesn’t say anything about the word ABORTION, that doesn’t mean God doesn’t care about abortion.
God knows every step of in our life, every little detail, He wants us to give life and to be careful with that life.
Also, HE has forgiveness for us, just pray and talk with Him about your thoughts.
Being worried it’s natural and normal for new parents, panicking about every little thing and reading books before giving birth, it’s all normal. Before giving birth, you have different worries than after the baby is born. While you are pregnant you might be anxious that the baby didn’t move yesterday, you are thinking about the labour and delivery, and how will you coop within the first month of your baby’s life.
Is my baby getting enough to eat – I heard some mums saying that they woke up the babies to feed them, I think is a mistake to wake up the baby, if the baby is hungry, for sure the baby will wake up and cry in a way of asking for food. If you are waking up that baby every time he sleeps, for sure, you will make that a routine in his brain so the baby will wake up when he/ she is 2, 3, 4 years old.
2. The fear that your baby will die – Being a new parent can be stressful sometimes. My Mum told me that when I was a baby (in my first days of life) she was so worried that every night she will take turns with my Dad to check on me with the mirror trick to see if I am breathing, now that’s anxiety.
3. The baby is crying too much – A lot of parents discover how often and how long newborns cry, especially for dads could be stressful and they start panicking that something it’s not right with the baby, which usually it’s normal or the baby’s needs are not meet.
4. The baby sleep – In the first pregnancy some mums read tons of books about baby’s sleep, but you have to understand that every baby is different and special, so if in the book says that your baby needs 12 hours of sleep, well do not believe it, or worse be anxious that your baby is only sleeping 10 hours. The baby will sleep as long as she/needs.
The fifth of 12 Old Testament books that bear the names of the Minor Prophets, embraced in a single book.
It tells of a Hebrew prophet named Jonah son of Amittai who is sent by God to prophesy the destruction of Nineveh but tries to escape the divine mission.
Everywhere in this world, no matter where you go on this globe, you will come across toxic people, but the ones that will give you a headache are your co-workers.
There are 3 or more signs that your co-worker is toxic and you should stay away from him/her.
They are judgemental – they can have a profoundly negative impact on a working environment. They usually pass judgement on everything and everyone he or she encounters. It can be anything from the colour of your t-shirt to the food you packed for lunch, they have opinions for anything in this world, and they feel the need to express all of them, if you disagree, well, then they will have opinions( not kind one) about you too.
2. They are selfish – Toxic people are selfish 100%, they are frequently opportunistic and only think about how circumstances benefit them.
Selfish persons make self-contradictory statements. Whatever selfish persons say, they back-out from that statement and do not do that work what they say to accomplish.
3. They love gossiping
They are feeding themselves with the gossips, they can’t wait for the next mistake a co-worker does, and at the moment they have the chance they gossip about, with their ”friend” at work. They are like ”pot stirrers’ and strive to make others look bad.
We all met toxic people at the workplace, but the key is to know how to coop with them. We have to understand that they might have problems, issues in their brain, life, or they simply want some attention and they have the need to feel important, as no one makes them feel important (especially in their childhood).
Do not permit them to invade you, do not let them be in charge of anything. Perhaps they should take a holiday and think about changing their lifestyle, their thoughts, actions, and visiting a psychologist.
This is one more reason why I keep saying BE KIND! God is in control, and He is watching them too!
This year many of us have faced unexpected challenges and changes which have impacted mental health and wellbeing on a global scale, it came like hurricane and destroyed every plan, thought and mostly our social life.
World Mental Health Day (10 October) is an international day for global mental health education, awareness and advocacy against social stigma. It was first celebrated in 1992 at the initiative of the World Federation for Mental Health, a global mental health organization with members and contacts in more than 150 countries
”We know that the levels of anxiety, fear, isolation, social distancing and restrictions, uncertainty and emotional distress experienced have become widespread as the world struggles to bring the virus under control and to find solutions” (https://wfmh.global).
I know that for some people, spending time out, with friends and socializing it’s vital. The pandemic took everything away, more people are developing anxiety, stress, depression. Take care of your mental health by thinking positively, enjoy the family around you, we will get over this!
