According to Merriam-Webster childhood is the period during which a person is a child; the early period in the development of something. Think of a moment when you were free without a single care in the world yet at the same time at your most vulnerable. During this precious time, you are being introduced to many things such as surroundings, individuals, objects, and getting acquainted with what they are. Children are raised into different surroundings. Perhaps raised in the nicest of the nice homes, or very privileged in the poor side of town.
Julia Schultz Ms. Nokes Honors English 9 7 February 2023 Odysseus the Flawed Hero The term hero is significantly misused in The Odyssey by Homer. Odysseus, king of Ithaca, is an example of a hero who does not deserve the title. Nonetheless, Odysseus shares many qualities of being a hero: he led his crew to victory in the grueling ten-year-long Trojan war due to his strategic thinking, and bravely made it home alive from the ten-year-long journey back. Odysseus is brave, cunning, and has great leadership skills: all of these traits are characteristics you would expect in a hero.
L1: Know about the Ageing Process. 1.1: Describe the physical, psychological, social and emotional changes that an individual may experience as a result of ageing. Aging is another stage in the human life. It is synonymous to other life stages like childhood, adolescence and adulthood.

Emerging adulthood is teens to early 20s explore prior to committing to adult role. Most teens think they are adults by the age of 18 because, that is the voting age and drinking age as well as the legal age of adulthood but, they don’t want to take the full role of being an adult and this include education. Every parent want their child to get a higher education than they received. It can be hard especially, for a student whose parents received zero education and was the first to graduate college in their family because, they don’t have financial support from their families they can only do so much encouraging them to finish school and achieve higher than them, compare to someone whose entire families graduated from college they are more likely
I was never fully aware of the topic of ageism nor was I ever concerned about it. Whenever I hear the word I think of it as regarding to the older generation. After reading on the topic of ageism, I realized that not only is the older generation affected by this topic, but also myself is. The changes in policies about ageism will take into count when I will reach that age period. Ageism is viewed differently now then it was viewed back in the day.
For my interview, the aging individual is a person I have known my whole life. Though she is not blood related, she is considered family, and an important person in my life. I chose her because I have seen her go through the aging process in a positive, and inspirational way. She has defied the norm that a woman needs a man in her life, yet she has lived her life without being in a single relationship. I have structured this interview to make it more like she is telling me her story.
As adolescences enter adulthood, they enter a long transitional period, often known as “emerging adult”. This transitional period takes place over a range of 18 to 25 years old (Santrock, 2013). At this stage, emerging adults are still in exploration in the various aspect of life such as the career path they are interested in, defining their identities and a style of living they would want to adopt. Thus, adolescences who are in transition will be caught with many intense changes and will experience major life events that are all of great importance.
During your middle-adulthood, you may begin to realize that you did not accomplish all of your goals. You may feel like you did not become the person that you set out to be and may not understand how you got to this point in your life (Firth, K. 2004). People in their mid-life frequently face challenges of taking care of parents or spouses who are unable to take care of themselves full time and may resent this aspect of their lives. The ability to go out and socialize becomes strained as caregiving can be time-consuming and stressful. This can lead to depression as you have fewer people to lean on (McKenzie, 2012).

Weeks before graduation, Justin is working on a plan to transition from college to the working world. He believes that a having a family at this point will tie him down.

Late Adulthood is the stage of the human life cycle where an individual nears the end of their life. The life expectancy in the United States has slowly increased over the years therefore allowed many to further analyze the physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development during late adulthood. The stage of late adulthood has been emphasized by ageism and the stereotypical "old" person but, will be further educated by the normative development of the life cycle of late adulthood. For the “old” experience dramatic changes in their development as they face loss, death, and illness.

The transition to adulthood is very different. You are faced with a lot of new challenges that change the way a person sees the world and sees a particular challenge. For example, the goals that can change are that a student is no longer attempting to meet the requirements given by a school. Instead they are trying to meet the standards set by a particular career or job so that they can get that job to make a living. Also, physically everyone changes the way that they look.
Abstract This report discusses the statement: Adulthood is probably the most balanced and free of changes stage of human development. To evaluate change in adulthood I will look at how Erikson and Levinson’s theories explore psychosocial changes in adulthood, how social and emotional development proceeds in adults and the physical changes which occur as we age. It is concluded that adulthood is a period of frequent profound change and is not the most balanced and free of change in human development. Introduction Studies on lifespan developmental psychology focus on how behaviour changes and remains consistent throughout the course of life.
