All sociologists believe the need of socialisation. It is the system by which societies ensure that there is continuity from one generation to another. Socialisation is the process by which individuals learn to conform to social norms, that is, the language, values and beliefs, customs and learn how to behave in ways that is appropriate to their culture. The individual internalises these social norms and becomes devout to them and as a result internalises the social rules of behaviour. Socialisation is a lifelong learning process as individuals encounter new situations and have to learn new roles, norms and values to fulfil adult social roles as members of society.
