Developmental Theorist
The 8 stages of Man
Trust vs. Mistrust
Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt
Initiative vs. Guilt
Industry vs. Inferiority
Identity vs. Role Confusion
During this stage individuals need to balance the troubles of social interactions and finding themselves. Some individuals decide that this is to much to handle and start to revert back to more children like ways. This process is called moratorium.
Intimacy vs. Isolation
Generativity vs. Stagnation
Really in this stage their is no path you must fallow to keep moving up. Instead its more or less just stage.
Ego Integrity vs. Despair
55- death most people look back on life and see that it was either worth it or it wasn't. Integrity or despair, they either live out the rest of their life happy and full of knowledge or in question of was it worth it? Nevertheless in this stage the end is death, their is no escape and their is no alternative..... Until science finds a way that is.
