During their first year, infants rely on others for everything, which is how their needs are being met. Parents/guardians give their infants comfort, food, and security, that way infants can develop trust. If parents/guardians are neglecting their infants then they can develop mistrust, knowing that their loved ones are not there for them. My Mom stayed home with me for a couple of years after I was born, while my Dad was gone most of the time working. My Mom was able to help me gain trust that she was there for me. "People need to trust the world and the people in it, but they also need to learn some mistrust to protect themselves from danger." (Martorell, pg. 13).]]> 2023-07-10 01:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641326324 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641339300 The second stage of psychosocial development is Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt. For most children its starts at the age of 18 months old and will last until 3 years of age. In this stage, children are developing independence, they will venture off and begin to do things themselves. They will feed themselves, wander, and play by themselves. "Gain in fine motor skills, such as tying shoelaces and cutting with scissors, involve eye-had and small-muscle coordination." (Martorell, pg. 173). It is important that parents allow their children to do this, that way they can develop self-confidence and autonomy. If the parents does not encourage or allow this behavior, then the child will doubt their ability to become independent.  My Mom allowed to me play by myself and feed myself with a bottle, she also let me pick out which books or music to listen to. ]]> 2023-07-10 01:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641339300 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641343266 During this stage, the child is learning and using many skills. This is around the preschool age so they are using language and interacting with other children or adults around them. This is a very important time for children because children need to be able to explore and communicate. I went to preschool for two years so I was able to meet a lot of kids and teachers so I was able to play and communicate. I loved to play dress up and pretend to be the preschool teacher. "In pretend play, also called fantasy play, dramatic play, or imaginary play, children may make an object, such as a doll, represent, or symbolize, something else, such as a person." (Martorell, pg. 185 ). My Mom also allowed me to do more things on my own at this age, I started to dress myself and picked up my toys.]]> 2023-07-10 01:34:29 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641343266 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641346807 At this stage, children are venturing into elementary school, and they are developing a sense of self-esteem and competence. "Before about ages 5 to 7, young children's self-esteem is not firmly based on reality, and most young children widely overestimate their abilities." (Martorell, pg. 208). I was a cheerleader in elementary school so I worked to push myself hard and make sure I was making myself and others proud. My Mom always encouraged me to do my best and set goals. ]]> 2023-07-10 01:38:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641346807 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641352393 During this stage of adolescence, children are starting to focus and develop a sense of self. Most children start to figure out who they are by experimenting different styles. "Gender identity, awareness of one's femaleness or maleness and all it implies, is an important aspect of the developing self-concept."(Martorell, pg. 210). I feel in this stage I did experiment a lot of different styles, for awhile I wore nothing by under armor, or dressed like a tomboy, or wore all pink. I was figuring out me, and learned my likes and dislikes. I quit cheerleading and tried things like the swim team, and track. I then eventually tried out for color guard and loved it. I met tons of new people who were very similar to me and also meet my boyfriend. This really helped me become who I am because these people were also exploring themselves as well. ]]> 2023-07-10 01:44:17 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641352393 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641354964 This stage takes place in young adulthood, they begin to look for committed relationships. "Within the context of peer groups, children develop skills needed for sociability and intimacy, and the gain a sense of belonging." (Martorell, pg. 287). I am 18 years old and I have been with my boyfriend since 2019 (4 years). He is sweet, understanding, loving, supportive, inspiring, and spontaneous. I also have healthy relationships with my family and a few of my friends. ]]> 2023-07-10 01:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641354964 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641360929 This stage takes place in middle adulthood, and adults are focused on mainly raising a family. Whenever they are settled down enough, they prepare the next generation, "you're concerned with establishing and guiding the next generation or else feels personal improvement." (Martorell pg. 13). I believe I am a few years away from this age, I am not completely ready to settle down and start a family yet. I do watch children a lot and think about starting a family, but I am still pretty young and venturing through my relationship with my boyfriend. I am in the process of continuing my education and will be preparing the next generation by teaching them.]]> 2023-07-10 01:52:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641360929 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641365657 This the last stage in adulthood, where they focus on reflecting and accepting. They will have a sense of satisfaction with their life, and possibly feel despair and regret. As an "elderly person achieves acceptance of death, or despairs, over inability to relive life. (Martorell, pg.13). Whenever this stage comes for me, I hopefully will have satisfaction with my life choices. I will either have lived a young life, or possible a shorter one than hoped for, but I hope that the ride taught lessons to others and that I worked hard. I also hope I have no regrets. ]]> 2023-07-10 01:56:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641365657 cbailey2231 https://padlet.com/cbailey2231/qy58xad2g2flj544/wish/2641368189 Martorell, G.
