A study shows, for the first time, how these functional impairments arise:
Social isolation during
early life prevents the cells that make up the brain's white matter from maturing and producing the right amount of myelin, the fatty «insulation» on nerve fibers that helps them transmit long - distance messages within the brain.
This time of learning how to parent is crucial not only to the success of breastfeeding but also to the mother - infant relationship, but the

Bright Futures, the AAP health promotion initiative, provides resources for pediatricians to detect both ACEs and adverse developmental outcomes.36 Programs like Reach Out and Read, in which pediatricians distribute books and model reading, simultaneously promote emergent literacy and parent — child relationships through shared reading.37, 38 However, ACEs can not be addressed in
isolation and require collaborative efforts with partners in the education, home visitation, and other
social service sectors in synergistic efforts to strengthen families.29 In this way, programs like Help Me Grow39 that create streamlined access to
early childhood services for at - risk children can play a critical role in building an integrated system that connects families to needed resources to enhance the development of vulnerable children.
However, there is also at least some evidence to suggest that socially - withdrawn, anxious and depressive children can also particularly benefit from positive peer relationships.29, 32,33,34 For example, Laursen and colleagues35 reported that having at least one close friend attenuated links between
social isolation and the development of internalizing problems in
early childhood.

isolation predicted an increase in depressive symptoms indicates that viewing peer relations from a group perspective contributes significantly to the existing knowledge about problematic peer experiences as
social risk factors for depression in
early adolescence.
In addition, the finding that loneliness but not perceived
social acceptance mediated the link between clique
isolation and depressive symptoms provides insight into underlying cognitive - emotional constructs, which may be helpful in preventing depressive symptoms in
early adolescence.
Adolescent girls diagnosed with a disruptive behaviour disorder (DBD) show negative outcomes in adulthood, such as

isolation is a
social risk factor for an escalation in depressive symptoms in
early adolescence.
The objectives of the present study were (a) to investigate whether clique
isolation from age 11 to 13 years is a
social risk factor for subsequent depressive symptoms in
early adolescence; (b) to test the potential role of loneliness and perceived
social acceptance as cognitive and emotional constructs underlying the link between clique
isolation and depressive symptoms; and (c) to explore possible sex differences in the association between clique
isolation and depressive symptoms.
In line with
earlier findings about the association between problematic peer relations and depression in childhood and adolescence (Ladd and Troop - Gordon 2003; La Greca and Moore Harrison 2005; Pedersen et al. 2007), we did not find sex differences in the association between clique
isolation and subsequent depressive symptoms and also not in the mediating role of loneliness and
social self perception.
Indeed, adolescents are more likely to experience loneliness in
early adolescence as opposed to late adolescence (Ladd and Ettekal 2013), which may accentuate the experience of
social isolation (Laursen and Hartl 2013).

social isolation in
early to middle childhood and a range of poor outcomes, including internalising and externalising behaviours e.g. (Bukowski & Adams 2005).
