Hi! I am currently doing a degree in childhood studies and your question is similar to that of one of my assignments! "what factors affect children, childhoods and families". Differents environments is quite a broad aspect so im not too sure what exactly you are asking but ill tell you what I know any way! everything has an effect on children. things such as living in a poor economical status (children whose parents are on low incomes, another factor is children whose parents are divorced or separated, statistics show that children do better both socially and academicaly when having parents of a maried status (im not saying i agree with this. All these factors interlink eg parents split up = 1 parent having to be the sole provider = parent out working more = more stress for parent and child = less time spent with child which can lead to disruptive behaviour, disruptive education etc. It is believed that children need a critical bonding period with their mum between the ages of 0 and 6 months, this continues until the age of three. it is believed that if children dont get this then it can lead to what is known as maternal deprivation, resulting in them being emotionally and behaviouraly deprived. (again im not saying i believe this!) I would really like to hear your views on this and to see if this is what you meant!
