As a young toddler my dad earned all of my trust as he would be there to hold and love me when I cried. My mom was not the person and she actually encouraged mistrust in me at such a young age. "develops sense of whether world is a good and safe place." G. Martorell

Being a very independent child and young toddler, I was in the "terrible twos" at around 18 months. My dad encouraged me to do things on my own and let me do my own thing while he was next to me watching closely. "Child develops a balance of independence and self-sufficiency over shame and doubt" (G. Martorell)

I watched my siblings getting in trouble for doing things they shouldn't have done, and I didn't want that for myself. I was never actually disciplined by my dad or gave him a reason to punish me. "Child develops initiative when trying new activies and is not overwhelmed by guilt" (G. Martorell)

I loved cheerleading and was so excited to try out for my middle school after making the teams in elementary school. I unfortunately didn't make the team and this created a lot of self=doubt and I gave up on it and never tried out for it or worked for it again. "Child must learn skills of the culture or face feelings of incompetence" (G. Martorell)

I struggled in this category, not because of sexuality or who/what makes me happy but finding out who I was. I was the girl with frizzy hair and wild curly hair. I was never taught by a parent or someone who had curls of how to manage them. I began straightening my hair this began my journey of who I was. "Adolescent must determine sense of self or experience confusion about roles" (G. Martorell)

Creating a family with someone and finding out that he is my soul person is something that I struggled with. Growing up with a single dad, I didn't learn how a relationship worked and wanted to give up quickly when things were not perfect. I found myself wanting to be alone instead of communicating with my partner and working through my conflicts. "Person seeks to make commitments to others or may suffer from isolation and self-absorption" (G. Martorell)

I find myself wanting to help with the community and learning how I can do more. Working in childcare for the last 7 years has educated me in how to properly help those in my community. I look forward to helping more children and families as I move forward in life and once I hopefully become a teacher. "Mature adult is concerned with establishing and guiding the next generation or else feels personal impoverishment" (G. Martorell)

I would enjoy being able to be content in my life and finding peace with life that I won't worry about what happens after this life. One day I would love to be able to wake up full of happiness and love. When I feel this way, I think I will feel complete. "Elderly person achieves acceptance of own life, allowing acceptance of death, or else despairs over inability to relive life" (G. Martorell).
