Between the ages of infant to 18 months they learn to develop the virtue of hope and begin to transition into the next stage. One example that my friend told me is that when their little brother was anxious and nursing, he would always root with his fingers for his mother's belly button. This made a habit to let the child know he is safe. ]]> 2023-07-13 21:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640285 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640524 This stage of development is when children start to become independent and start making their own decisions. A lot of times this can be characterized when a child chooses to do something they know they probably shouldn't do but they face the consequences of their actions. ]]> 2023-07-13 21:59:03 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640524 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640663 Initiative is the decision and motivation to accomplish more tasks than expected or asked. Often times this is based on the child's motivation and idea of self-worth. When it comes down to it initiative can be something that can reinforce self confidence. Often times repeated discouragement can result in feelings of guilt and inadequacy. This is often the case when a child is shamed for trying to help their mother. ]]> 2023-07-13 21:59:45 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640663 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640944 Industry is developing a sense of competence at useful skills and task. Often time schools provide many opportunities to improve and learn that they can do things on their own. However, with Inferiority it often comes with a lack of confidence and feelings of inadequacy. A good example of this is when a child is able to complete an assignment and gets a sticker on the paper for a good job! ]]> 2023-07-13 22:01:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644640944 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641052 The main challenge of this stage is to figure out who oneself is and to develop a sense of identity and where one belongs. They often find themselves as an individual. They often find confusion however when trying to figure out their identity. An example of this is when they find that they are interested in sports or in band.  ]]> 2023-07-13 22:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641052 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641149 As individuals develop, they start to discover the want for intimacy or if they want to be alone. They need to often develop the capacity for positive intimacy. This can also be classified with the need for friendships and love. ]]> 2023-07-13 22:02:12 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641149 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641395 Generativity is the desire to give back to society and leave a lasting impact, while stagnation is the sense of not making progress and being stuck in one place. Generativity can be achieved through various ways, such as raising children, mentoring others, contributing to one’s community, or pursuing a fulfilling career. Stagnation however is about being self-absorbed and not allowing people to be in your life. ]]> 2023-07-13 22:03:32 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641395 aaders4 https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641493 This often has to do with reflecting back on your life and figuring out if everything you did was worth it. This can lead to despair if people chose to make bad decisions and not live their life to the fullest. ]]> 2023-07-13 22:04:09 UTC https://padlet.com/aaders4/eopdo5zgojkeimqm/wish/2644641493
