My Erikson Development Timeline by https://padlet.com/gberzac/lco1qfxvhh6q826v By Gwenyth Berzac en-us 2023-07-16 17:10:32 UTC 2023-07-16 18:02:55 UTC hello@padlet.com Stage 1: Trust vs. Mistrust gberzac https://padlet.com/gberzac/lco1qfxvhh6q826v/wish/2645818182
It's important for children to develop a sense of trust in their caregivers during the first stage of Erikson's development, as this will provide a foundation for healthy relationships and self-confidence later in life. I was taken care of as a baby, I was able to trust my parents when feeding, bathing, clothing, teaching, and playing with me.

During the second stage of Erikson's development, children learn to develop a sense of autonomy and independence, which is important for their self-esteem and self-worth. If children are not allowed to make choices and explore their environment, they may develop feelings of shame and doubt, which can have negative effects on their self-confidence and ability to take initiative later in life.

Thankfully, I was independent and made my own choices. At the ages of 1-3, I was able to communicate clearly and use manners. I could say over 100 words at 1 year old. I was able to feed myself with a fork or spoon, played on the computer and could even find the channels on my TV.

During the third stage of Erikson's development, children learn to take initiative and explore their environment, which is important for their creativity and problem-solving skills. If you are not encouraged to take initiative and explore, they may develop feelings of guilt and inadequacy, which can have negative effects on their self-esteem and ability to take risks later in life.

At this age I was getting into sports like soccer and swimming, but I only did them for fun because I was afraid of losing.

In stage 4, children learn to develop a sense of industry and competence, which is important for their sense of accomplishment and self-worth. If children are not given opportunities to develop skills and achieve success, they may develop feelings of inferiority and inadequacy.

During this age I feel like I had a good amount of friends, but I felt insecure because I wasn’t “popular” or “pretty" like the other girls, and no boys had crushes on me so it made me feel insecure.

Adolescents learn to develop a sense of identity and individuality, which is important for their self-confidence and ability to form healthy relationships. If adolescents are not able to explore and develop their own identities, they may experience confusion and lack of direction.

During these years I created what career path I wanted to choose and I developed my own personality. I kept some good friends and got rid of the bad, protected my peace, and had some really fun experiences. I also graduated high school and completed my first year of college!

Young adults learn to develop intimate relationships with others, which is important for their emotional wellbeing and ability to form lasting connections. If young adults are not able to form meaningful relationships, they may experience feelings of isolation and loneliness.

Right now I am nineteen, and I have established some really solid friendships. During these years I hope to have my dream job, be financially stable, travel and experience new things, and enjoy my twenties without being held down with a man or babies.

Adults learn to develop a sense of generativity and contribute to society, which is important for their sense of purpose and fulfillment. If adults do not feel that they are making a positive contribution to society, they may experience feelings of stagnation and dissatisfaction.

I want to still be financially stable, get married and have children. I want to still enjoy my profession, and be in a HAPPY marriage and not have to worry about money. I want to give my children the best life possible.

Older adults learn to reflect on their lives and develop a sense of integrity and acceptance, which is important for their sense of fulfillment and readiness to face the end of life. If older adults do not feel that they have lived a meaningful life, they may feel despair and regret.

I want to have lived my life to the fullest. I want to be retired, but still productive, as well as being the best wife, mother, and grandmother I can be.
