Solution

Environment of the child has a major role in the development of the child because it includes the surroundings in which a child develops various cognitive and motor skills. It also influences the physical development of the child according to the limits created by genetic characteristics.

Further, the social-economic and cultural environment has a major role in the development of a child’s thought process.

For example, a child who is sent to school is able to develop characteristics of confidence and self-reliance more easily than a child who does not receive education.

In genetic terms, children having angry genetic disposition learn to calm down if they grow in a stable environment. Therefore, environment plays a vital role in the development of a child, it not only develops a particular skill but influences the whole personality.
