Answer preview

One of the areas that I would like to investigate is child development. The article that I choose is “Child’s needs for a healthy development”. I choose this article because it talks about the human needs that are necessary for a child development. It also talks about the different experiences of a child milestone. The article also touches on Maslow theory and therefore it helps in understanding the motivation as well as the development of the mental health of a person.(334words)
