Kenneth’s cognitive development is compromised.

As a result of his environment, Kenneth’s cognitive development has been strained and hence compromised. Exposure to all these dilapidating conditions exerts negative and detrimental effects on Kenneth’s emotional well-being which consequently affects his mental well-being.
