                          Stage 1:  Trust versus Mistrust 

# data[].attributes.body
This stage happens from birth to 12-18 months. This stage is about a kid determining if they can trust or not trust the world or people or caregivers around them. They gain trust if their caregiver takes care of their needs. The caregiver not caring about their child's needs leads to mistrust in the kid. I resolved this stage with trust. When my mom would care for me when I cried by finding out if I needed to eat, be changed, burp, or do something else I needed. I knew she would come when I needed something, which led me to trust her. According to the Child, " babies need to develop a balance between trust, which lets them form intimate relationships, and mistrust, which enables them to protect themselves (150)." I learned to trust my caregiver, but I still have mistrust to protect myself.

This stage occurs from 12-18 months to 3 years old. The kid wants to do things independently to be self-sufficient, but if the kid gets discouraged, the kid won't want to try anything new. Their parents encourage them to try things on their own but have limits to their control from their parents. I learned how to dress for school because I wanted to be more independent, and my mom pushed me to dress for school and learn new things. This is how I resolved my crisis with Autonomy. According to the Child, "in which children achieve a balance between self-determination and control by others (156)." I wanted to do things on my own but knew I couldn't do everything on my own.

# data[].attributes.body
This stage occurs from 3 years old to 6 years old. At this stage, the child is asserting themselves by playing and trying to balance wanting to pursue goals with hesitations to pursue their goals if they experience too many restrictions from adults will lead to guilt. I resolved this with Initiative because I would play school and pretend I was a teacher. According to the Child, " At the same time, they are learning that some of the things they want to do meet social approval, whereas others do not."  (210)." I was learning with play how to act and not act while I was playing.

# data[].attributes.body
This stage occurs from 6 years old to Puberty. In this stage, a child learns how to work in society or face low-self esteem. I resolved with Industry because I worked hard in school and would work on my math facts to do good on time tests in elementary to master my skills. According to the Child, "the stage is successfully resolved, children, develop a view of themselves as being able to master skills and complete tasks (275)." I was able to master my math facts by working hard on practicing.  I would take pride in knowing that I could accomplish mastering my math flashcards.

# data[].attributes.body
This stage occurs from puberty to young adulthood. In this stage, they are trying to figure out who they are. According to the book. "who resolve the identity crisis satisfactorily develop the virtue of fidelity: sustained loyalty, faith, or a sense of belonging to a loved one or friends and companions (336)." I resolved with Identity because I stayed true to my beliefs when my friend pressured me to do something I was uncomfortable with.

# data[].attributes.body
This stage occurs in young adulthood. In this stage, you are ready to share your life with others. I haven't gone through this stage yet, so I don't know how it is resolved in me yet. This stage can be by maintaining healthy and successful relationships with others or not socializing with people. I think it would be Intimacy that I would resolve this stage with. I could do this by maintaining successful relationships with friends. According to Child, a "Person seeks to make commitments to others or may suffer from isolation and self-absorption(13)."

# data[].attributes.body
This stage occurs in middle adulthood. People going through this stage are trying to contribute to society. I haven't gone through this stage yet, but I assume this is resolved with Generativity. I could do that by inspiring others and feeling like I made a mark on the world. People who are decided with Generativity do activities that mentor younger generations. People who didn't feel like they didn't make a mark on the world. According to Child, a "Mature adult is concerned with establishing and guiding the next generation or else feels personal impoverishment (13). I could mentor or volunteer to help the next generation.

# data[].attributes.body
This stage occurs in late adulthood. In this stage, people are reflecting on their life. I haven't gone through this stage. I would resolve with Integrity. People in this stage either feel satisfied or fail in their life. I assume this would be resolved with Integrity so that you don't regret what happened in your life. According to Chid, "Elderly person achieves acceptance of own life, allowing acceptance of death, or else despairs over inability to relive life (13)." I assume I won't regret what I did with my life when I get to this stage.
