For the most part, early childhood teachers will work with many different kinds of children and families, but the topics of this training program offer a training most generally not used. It would be a sad day if this was the kind of training teachers needed most. I thought it was interesting, however.

Spotting developmental problems, problems in behavior stemming from neglect and ignorance, getting a child back on the right road, would make a better group of training programs.
