It is impossible not to see that children have their own emotional, intellectual and behavioral worlds. Like adults, they experience different difficulties, transition periods and traumas in their interactions with the environment. The manifestations of these problems sometimes differ from adult reactions. Variables such as their cognitive and emotional development and emotional repertoires have an impact on this.

The first relationships and systems are established within the family, and as they get older, they shape the outside world with reference to these experiences. A problem that may occur here can arise in various ways in later ages.
