The necessity of early intervention programs
1978
Bindrim, Elaine J.
Abstract: Early intervention programs directed at pregnant women, particularly pregnant adolescents, may prevent handicaps in infants and children. Evidence suggests that intervention affects aspects of the child's development other than those measured by intelligence tests. Good nutrition and health habits should be taught to teenagers, stressing the influence of the mother's health and diet on the health of the child. After the family is formed, interventions should focus on adequate housing and economic security, as well as on nutrition and health care, before and after the baby is born. Since the quality of the first 3 years of life is crucial to child growth and development, early intervention programs must address the basic nutritional and environmental needs of the parent-child system. Parenting education will also ensure emotional attachment between the child and its parents.
