This is the first area of psychosocial development and the foundation of how we interact with others. During this stage, my parents provided me with everything I needed as an infant and spend time playing with me, singing me songs, and interacting with me. This led me to develop trust. This is because my parents taught me to trust the world and the people in it.

This stage is critical to children building independence and confidence. During this stage, my parents allowed me to explore my independence, by setting up play dates with children my age, allowing me to participate in conversations, and letting me choose my own outfits. This allowed me to grow my social skills and make my wishes known.

During this stage, children will grow their social skills by interacting with other children. During this stage, my parents set up play dates with children my age and enrolled me in preschool. I was able to interact and play with children my age. By interacting with my peers and other adults, I learned what needed to be done for social approval.

This stage is when children figure out what their social standing is in society. When I was in this stage, my parents got divorced. This led to me comparing myself to other children and their families. I also lacked emotional support from my parents as they were navigating life as single parents, and working more hours to support my brother and I. If children are unable to obtain praise or motivation, it can cause them to develop low self-esteem.

During this stage of adolescence, children discover who they are and who they want to be in society. During this stage, I participated in many activities and had a job in childcare. I was able to use these experiences to discover that I wanted to be an elementary music teacher. During this stage, young people will develop a coherent sense of self.

During this stage, you'd adults will begin exploring more intimate relationships with others. During the early years of this stage, I was in an unhealthy relationship. This caused me to become isolated and depressed. I am now out of this relationship and happily married. This has allowed me to be open and have loving relationships. Failure in this stage can lead to isolation and depression.

During this stage, adults will be trying to "Make their Mark", and make an impact on their community or society. I am only 25 years old and have not entered this stage of development yet. When I do I hope that I have made a positive impact on my students' lives, my family lives, and my community.  If adults can achieve generativity, they will feel accomplished and useful as they balance their careers and families.

During this stage, elderly adults will reflect on their past actions. I am not in this stage of development yet, but when I am, I hope to look back fondly on the accomplishments and relationships I have built throughout my life. Elders in this stage will be content and happy with their accomplishments or regretful of their failures.
