GROWTH and DEVELOPMENT

Growth is the progressive increase and continuous advancement of the child from birth to maturity.

Development is the process by which an organism grows and changes over the course of his life.
 

   The three issues on human development:

1. Nature vs Nurture

    Nature refers to an individual’s biological inheritance while nurture refers to environmental experiences. 

2. Continuity vs discontinuity

    Continuity is the gradual, cumulative change while discontinuity is the distinct change.

3. Stability vs change

    Stability is the state or quality of being stable; quality of being unchanging while change is a transformation from one state, condition or phase to another.
