Today in class we talked about Erikson, Piaget, and Kohlberg’s theories on aging for humans. The three people have different theories on the stages of development in life. Erikson believes you never stop developing. He has 7 different stages unlike Kohlberg having three and Piaget who believes you're done after about age 12. In my opinion, I believe that Erikson's stages make more sense. I think you truly don’t ever stop developing because throughout your life you are supposed to make decisions whether those decisions include your career, your children's career, or even if you are going to have children or not. Even when you think your life is done and you can just sit back and relax you can't because you still have duties like paying bills and things like that or family to watch grow up or raise them. They also say your brain doesn’t even develop till the ages of about 21-25. This is crazy to believe because you are expected to make the biggest choices of your life by the time you are even 18. You are expected to choose your career, how you're going to live, and many other decisions that are hard to decide.

I could help society by choosing a career that will help society. Right now, I am thinking nursing and know that society and the worlds need for more nurses. 
I could hurt society by not choosing a career that is helpful for it. 
Society could help me by showing the good things to being a nurse. 
Society could hurt me by not helping me find a good job that I like.

10/5/18   Today in class we watched a  video  where they asked what kids think family is.  They're  answers were things like married parents, live together, do activities together. This video was shown to us because family is the biggest component of socialization.    In  everyday  life people act on a stage to get your vote, money. Everyone is performing every day of their  life .  Your  behavior status is your role in the play. If people don’t earn their  title  in our  society  you will get a bad title. You must earn your role in the play, a teacher will play her role by doing her job, by teaching in school every day. All the roles in our  society  with act out the script in our lives. You need to build up  your confidence in our society to play your role. Your role is also affected by your status in our society, you go to  school,  so you need to come to  class...

Chapter 10 worksheet: essay A. People in society often tend to think that deviance refers to behaviors that everyone knows are wrong. Durkheim’s theory was that deviance is a necessary part of a successful society, he argued that it challenged peoples present views. An example of this would be when black students across the united states participated in sit-ins during the civil rights movement. I believe that a person is not born to be a criminal, they become one over time. I think that criminal acts as young children are an act of how they were raised, they may think that the actions they take that are wrong are fun for them to do or funny, also they could do it for attention. They could be wanting attention because maybe their parents don't give them very much attention so they think the only way to get their attention is to start getting into trouble, which will cause them to keep the acts up and in the future bring them into much greater trouble. The child could start out by...
