1. If you given a chance, which development stage would you like to be
in? Why? If I am given a chance to choose to which development stage, I would like to be in is in early adulthood stage, because in this stage we can do things and we are already matured. We are physically complete, we can now learn to accept responsibility, actions and criticism. We also we the profit from errors. Lastly, we can socially progress from age related peer groups to people with similar interest and experiences.
2. Reflect on your stages of development. Were you able to acquire the
developmental tasks expected for each stage. What facilitated your acquisitions of the ability to perform such tasks? In my early childhood, middle childhood, adolescence stage, and adulthood. I was able to acquire these developmental tasks. I believe that my ability to live independently and make choices and control my life evolve over a period of time. When I was a 1 year old my mom taught me how to walk, even though sometimes I fell down, taught me how to say the word “mama” and “papa” and taught me everything as I can. Then, when I was three years old my mom tried to send me to school as a toddler. It was a first day of the school and I’m so shy. But my mom is still there to guide me. Then I start to introduce myself to my classmates and to my teacher. After a few months I learned a lot of things like, I can already write my name, know how to color and everything. One day my teacher tells us she has a test on the next day. Then my mom said that, if I’m going to study and got the high score, she will buy me my favorite food, and then I study hard and as a result, I got the highest score. So, as she said, she brought me my favorite food. When I was seven I entered a regular second grade class. Good decision-making must be developed over a person's lifetime First became simple choices when I was quite young. What shirt do you want to wear? What drink do you want, and my choices were respected. When I picked out a shirt that clashed outrageously with my pants my mother did not override my choice. This gave my beginning decision-making real validity even if my taste in clothes left much to be desired. At the stage of adolescence. As a teenager I struggle body changes, mood swings and social issues. In this stage I feel I can do whatever I want in my life. Sometimes I left home without saying goodbye to my mom, that I do not do my usual immature. Maybe it is part of growing up. As the time goes by, now I am in the stage of adulthood I learn to be a responsible and make my
own decision beacause it’s a important part of the journey of a
adulthood. One thing for sure though to become an adult you must be mature and ready to take on the world. Being an adult means achieving a separate identify, being able to support your self and/or your family financially, and being able to provide yourself with a house or a place to call home. Adulthood consists of many different aspects, and is not an easy part of life.
