This is the first stage in Erikson's theory and the most important one. This stage is where our viewpoints of the world get shaped and our overall personalities. During this stage is when the child builds trust with their caregiver. Tania spoke to her caregivers and they told her that as a baby she would always crawl away and the only way they could get her to come back was with food.

This is Erikson's second stage and what mainly this stage is about is a child focusing on developing a sense of self-control. Children in a sense want to being to things on their own. For example, during this stage children begin to want to have control over what they eat and what toys they want to buy/play with. During this stage Tania had a shutdown because her dad left to work out of the country. Instead of wanting control she felt like she lost it because she didn't have her father near.

During the sixth stage of Erikson's theory the main concept is forming intimate, trusting, and loving relationships with another person. If this stage is accomplished it will lead to a happier life because you have that person by your side. On the other side if this stage is failed it can lead to a life where one fells alone, depressed, and failure to connect with someone in a deeper sense. During this stage Tania did build those relationships. Her life changed the moment she became an aunt. During this stage she became an aunt to her niece and couple years later to her nephew. The relationships she has with them both is what motivates her everyday. During this stage she also has gotten married to me.

She hopes that once she sits and reflects on her life that she sees that she accomplished her goals and that she sees her niece and nephew meet their goals and that our marriage is everything we ever wanted it to be.
