Example 2: Culture

Positive - culture can influence the way someone lives or works, which can impact all aspects of their development. For example, in some cultures, people might follow a particular diet, which can affect them physically. Being from a different culture may also enable one to socialise with a variety of people, which in turn can affect someone emotionally. 

Negative - some cultures may discourage certain things, for example some communities think females do not need an education, which will affect their cognitive and social development. Some cultures may have bad eating/ drinking practices, which can affect physical health. In some cultures, there might be taboo around certain aspects such as sexual and mental health, which can affect a person emotionally.
