Every child is unique. Each has that distinct ability, talent and character which make them different form one another. And one of the factors that exert a strong influence on the individual child is his home environment. His behavior on the school may be properly understood with adequate knowledge of his home conditions.

            Some children from poor families are happy and contented in spite of financial difficulties, while others suffer frustrations and misery. Financial constraints and family problems due to poverty are remarkable. Thus children are neglected, uncared and unloved.

            On the other hand students coming from well-to-do families may be spoiled and maladjusted due to over protection, over indulgence or neglect of the parents.

            They have the tendency to over react, results easily to tantrums, have less patience and want to have everything immediately. They have no concentration with their studies and have more time on playing and roaming around. They leave their assigned task unfinished just to satisfy their urge. They are undisciplined, lazy and dependent. On the other hand, there are those who are diligent, hardworking, and reliable. Even though they are rich, they are responsible and very loving to their parents and teachers. They are conscientious and God-fearing individuals with aims to attain the fullest realization on their potentials and dreams.
