Toscano en-us 2023-02-26 19:30:05 UTC 2023-02-26 20:03:09 UTC hello@padlet.com dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495469795 This stage takes place in the first 2 years of our lives which is where we are learning what we can trust or not in the world around us, this stage can be highly important because it can influence how we see the world as we grow up. 
In my life, i decided to trust the world thanks to the parenting of my father who helped me see that "the world is a good and safe place"(pg12) by being nurturing and loving to me and making sure i was around caring and loving people.]]> 2023-02-26 19:34:45 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495469795 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495472207 This stag occurs between the ages 2 and 3. In this stage we tend to develop a greater sense of self-control. We ask ourselves if we can complete tasks on our own or if we need the help of others. 
As a child i became a autonomous child. My father allowed me to attempts thing on my own and never discouraged me if i failed he would simply prompt me and give me verbal praise for trying as i was developing a sense of "Independence and self sufficiency"(pg12).]]> 2023-02-26 19:38:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495472207 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495473204 We go through this stage between the ages of 3 and 6. In this stage we our wanting to chase our interests  that we come across while dealing with the feeling of guilt that might come from it or has came from it, we are asking ourselves if we are good or bad. 
Growing up i was a child with initiative and father saw that in me. He made sure to be aware of my interests and always did the best possible way to explain things to me and always helped me with any guilt that would be going through my head from gaining "initiative when trying new activities " (pg12).]]> 2023-02-26 19:40:42 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495473204 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495474332 Children go through this stage between the ages of 6 and 12. In this stage children gain personal interests they develop goals and ask themselves if they are good enough to succeed and what are some things that could possibly make them bad. 
As a youngster i can recall when i had developed a sense of drive for my goals. My father taught me to take pride in my accomplishments and taught me the skill of working hard for my goals. I was very passionate for soccer since it was the sport i was in during these years of my childhood and my father made sure that i always felt supported and helped me accomplish my goals i had towards the sport at the time and helped me moved past my "feelings of incompetence" (pg12). ]]> 2023-02-26 19:43:04 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495474332 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495475332 Once we pass the years of childhood and move into our adolescent years, we go through the part of our lives where we try to figure out where we belong in the world. We tend to ask ourselves what we stand for and we try to figure out who we really are as well as what our role in society is. 
As a young teen i can recall when i had thoughts like these in my head. Throughout high school, as any other teen, i came across the complex idea of popularity and the social ranking which is where i would ask myself who i really was because i would catch myself acting certain ways in an attempt to fit in with different crowds. I ended up having an identity crisis of not knowing who i really was or what i really liked, i ended up "experiencing a confusion about roles" (page12). It wasn’t t until i began searching for what i really liked and tried doing many different things and through trial and error i got a sense of what i liked and who i really was, after that i learned  and am still learning what i stand for and what i want my role in society to be. ]]> 2023-02-26 19:45:03 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495475332 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495481705 Once we pass our young teen years and move onto our young adulthood, we tend to get involved with intimacy and relationships. We usually spend time with a significant other during this stage or sometimes we get into isolation, sometimes due to being hurt by a companion at an early age. During this stage we ask ourselves if we will be loved or if we will be alone. 
During my young adult years i have had experience with both intimacy and isolation. During my adolescent years and going into my young adult years i had been in a relationship which lasted years but came to end which is when i found myself in isolation and pushing people away. It took time for my state of mind to heal but i finally did and moved forward with my life and now i currently find myself revolved around intimacy again where i am "seeking to make commitment towards others" (pg12).]]> 2023-02-26 19:57:59 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495481705 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495482440 Throughout our adult hood we tend to gain a sense of giving back and leaving something for our next generation. As we become parents we want to give the experiences and knowledge that we have learned through life to our children. 

I have yet to experience this stage but i have always had a vision to one day give everything i can back to my children. I aspire to give all the knowledge i will gain to my children so that they will learn from mistakes i may have committed so that they will not have to experience it themselves to learn.]]> 2023-02-26 19:59:47 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495482440 dtoscano6 https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495483552 This is the final stage in our life, we have gone throughout all the stages and experienced so much and learned so much. At this point in time we tend to be reflective on everything we have gone through. We also tend to think on the idea of what we leave behind from our life and if we our satisfied we "achieve acceptance of our own life" or we end up wanting to relive. 
I have not reached this age in life yet therefore have not experience this stage but i can imagine i will be thinking on my life a lot. I work hard everyday so that when i reach this stage i can have acceptance of my own life and be able to take on death without any fears. ]]> 2023-02-26 20:02:16 UTC https://padlet.com/dtoscano6/550tl6nedphhzxmo/wish/2495483552
