The Impact Of Cultural Diversity On The Creation Of Social Skills In Children

Abstract

Social skills are an integral part of the child's development. Every child should be exposed to social environments that influence and develop the proper perception. The more the child is in contact with others, the greater the possibility for that child to create the correct worldviews for himself and others. Interaction with others can be explained as an opportunity to be close to different individual or group cultures, and to understand and accept these cultures. What is known is that we cannot have a comprehensive definition for all cultural categories. In this way, many cultural diversities must be respected and integrated as an operational component. At the very beginning, everything starts with the family, therefore parents should be aware of the correlation between the cultural diversity and the social skills of their children.

In conclusion, to emphasize the positive correlation between culture and children's social skills, we rely on the theory of Bandura and Vygotsky, who have promoted these two components as direct or indicator factors of the development of cultural diversity to the child's social skills development, since through culture children learn values, norms, beliefs, interaction, responsibility towards others, and responsibility towards the environment in which they live.
