    From my current placement I have experience of working with a child going through this transition, this had a very big effect on the child holistically. It became obvious to me that the child was very worried and unsettled about this transition as we noticed a negative change in the child's behaviour as he started becoming aggressive to other children and started a tendency to play alone and withdraw himself from the class.

    It’s not every day that you volunteer to be humiliated, abused, and laid on by sweaty adolescent boys. Maybe you do; I don’t know your story. The point is that I personally wasn’t a huge fan of any of these things separately, let alone all in one wrestling practice. If you asked me in middle school how I would look back on my wrestling days, and how those days would develop me over the years, I would have shrugged.…

Nevertheless, my stubborn opinions soon alternated once I started school in the fine suburban area called Dublin. I have heretofore never met such a group of warm, welcoming teachers and students. I formed friendships with numerous new peers in the first few weeks, and my group expanded significantly as the weeks progressed.…

There are many similarities between these two stages of life such as the continuous desire to learn and the necessity of friendship. The differences outweigh the similarities though, including the difficulties of aging, the burden of responsibilities, and the troubles of decision making.…
