Reflection # 2

The relationship between the Behavioral, Nativist, and Functional approaches is that they are focused in the linguistics abilities that a person posses. They deal with stimulation, construction,responses, and social functions that language learners apply them in order to communicate and learn about the world that is around them.People's capacity to learn linguistics matters and to improve their communication is a result of their interaction with their environment. In my experience learning a second language I do not have the opportunity to develop a nativist approach with all the innate acquisitions. Now I am trying to learn it in a Functional way.About the child-parent interaction, I think there is not any difference, just the language. A child learns, reinforces, and recognizes sounds and messages in the language that he/she is learning.Maybe these interaction will defer from each other in emotional and psychological aspects.
