The makings of me are from middle childhood to presently has shaped me to the young lady I am today in so many ways. People within my life from age 5 and up that I can remember have given me negative experiences along with positive experiences that presently affect my decisions and way of life. From my mother being present to not so present to building a relationship with an absent father. My 8 siblings all with different personalities and different approaches to coping with a tumultuous upbringing. I can’t begin to explain the makings of myself without first explaining the beginning influences on my life.
Middle Adulthood
I can remember vividly my first day of kindergarten; I was late starting school due to my birthday being later in the school …show more content…
I became more interested in a lot of new things in my life. I can remember like yesterday about the time I started puberty, it had many effects on my life, which made me look at things a different way. I understood it was my last year in grade school and I was only 10 years old knowing half of what children my age knew about. I was focused on better things in life, well I thought I did know a lot about life but yet I was still growing and haven’t got to experience that stage yet. Although I was still perceiving the world around me. I felt as if I was starting to become more bossy and want things my way or no way. By age 12 my life began to change drastically due to my biological farther wanting to become bac into my life. I felt like even though had some father figure in my life, it nothing like having your sperm donor begin to become a very impatient person. Although, Behaviors and attitudes develop in response to reinforcement and encouragement from the people around us (Crossman). I was feeling left alone in that situation. Then my life changed when I met my lifetime friend, her name was tynearia, I had to realize being antisocial was not going help with my social life at all. Middle adulthood had its way of life transitions. With me transitioning form elementary to middle school was a big step. Entering middle school made life changes for me, from the teachers, to the kids, to the admiration I felt like I was the only one with this feeling of what it would be like, unlike elementary school middle school taught me life lessons. It taught me how to be myself, stick up for what’s right. I was never really a school girl but I made it through the day. I learned new things such as group work, It taught me how to communicate more socially with my peers so that I could be ready for when I transition into high school. The teachers not just only taught us school lessons but they taught us personal lessons
