Select TWO of the prompts below to respond to in this week's discussion.

1. Analyze the nature vs. nurture debate regarding the development of language.  Describe the language acquisition device, the case study of Victor the “Wild Child” and social influences of language development.  Do you believe that we innately learn language or are there environmental and social influences?  Why? (USLO 3.2)  
2. Develop a case study based on two attachment styles from Ainsworth’s research. Describe how each attachment style impacts the child and future relationships the child might have.  In your case study, describe why each parent has that attachment style and the benefits and drawbacks of that style.  For example, “Cassandra is Pedro’s mother.  She loves Pedro but does not always meet his needs because she has a hard time providing comfort.  Pedro avoids her when she comes into a room…”  In your response, describe the caregiver, the child’s reaction to the caregiver, and what attachment styles you are describing.  Please provide a lot of detail for each of the two attachment styles you choose. (USLO 3.1, 3.2)  
3. Describe the 3 types of temperament according to Chess and Thomas (1996).  Does temperament change over time?  Provide an example from your own life – what is the temperament of 2 people who are close to you?  Is their temperament consistent across situations?  (USLO 3.1, 3.2)
