As for the types of interactions or factors under teacher-child interactions, results indicated that all Public focus groups and three of four Family focus groups said that being supportive of the child is important because it promotes growth and exploration. A related, yet different, type of interaction was establishing trust; this interaction was reported as important by two Private and two Family focus groups, but only one Public focus group cited this as important. Encouraging individualization was reported by all Public and three of four Private focus groups but only by two of four Family groups as an important interaction. Participants also said that being a role model was important. However, this factor was more salient among Public focus groups (3) than Private (1) and Family (2) focus groups.
