Question: Relate Erikson's stage theory to major childhood developmental milestones.

Assignment: To better understand the progression of the development of self, interview two different people about their memories of friendships. Find two children, two adults, or one child and one adult (depending on availability) and ask them questions about their friendships and how their social relationships affected their development of self.

Include references from: Berns, R. (2017). Child, Family, School, Community: Socialization and support. Other peer-reviewed article.

Summarize your findings, integrating relevant theories and concepts up to this point in the class in a 2-3-page (approximately 1,000 words) paper (not including the title and reference pages).

Include in your paper:

• A summary of each interview

• The development of self of each person interviewed

• A comparison of the two interviewees' development of self

• Possible ways their development of self could have been more positively influenced in childhood

In the first few units of this course, you studied how children develop their sense of self as a function of learning from their families, their peers, and their experiences about themselves. To better understand this progression of the development of self, you are going to interview two different people about their memories of friendships. Find two children, two adults, or one child and one adult (depending on availability) and ask them the questions about their friendships and how their social relationships informed their development of self. When you have completed this activity, you will write a 1,000-word paper to describe your findings/theories/concepts related to social development and the development of self. Specifically, your paper should demonstrate your ability to analyze themes from your interviews. Include in your paper a summary of each interview, the development of self of each person interviewed, a comparison of the two interviewees' development of self, and possible ways their development of self could have been more positively influenced in childhood.
