The Beginning
My name is Hannah Hlasnicek and my parents are Mark and Amee Hlasnicek. I was born in 1998 on June 20th. I have 2 other siblings. I have one older brother that is 5 years older than me and I have one younger sister that is 8 years younger. -
Stage 1: Trust vs. Mistrust
In this first stage of psychosocial development, I explain the first year and a half. this stage starts off when I was born. As I grow and age I don't have many thoughts of the world itself. the one thought that I do remember is asking myself is I can trust this world and trust all of the people around my that seem to love and care for me already. and although I didn't know hardly anything about these people I was surrounded by, I had an emotional connection to them as they did me! -
Stage 2: Autonomy vs. Shame
in this stage I start the early childhood stage which is when I have to decide whether I need to rely on other people around me to do things for me or is I can do them myself. I chose to continue to let other people help me with things for the mean time. this is the stage that will help me learn how to do things myself for when I get older and will be able to eat on my own and walk around on my own. -
Stage 3: Initiative vs. guilt
In this stage I have to decide if it is okay for me to do things on my own and if my parents are okay with me doing things on my own. this is also the stage where I can play on my own. I am between the ages of 3 and 5. this is also the stage where I may get my feeling hurt easily because of other kids or because I got in trouble with my parents. -
Stage 4: industry vs.inferioity
in this stage I am trying to please everyone a little. I still have ym terrible child moments like a fit every once in awhile but for the most of ages 5 to 12, I am trying to see what makes everyone happy. this is also the age where I start elementary school! I start to play softball which is super fun and want to continue to play softball for a few years! although when I reach 12 years old, I stop playing softball so I can focus on high school which is coming up soon! -
Stage 5: Ego identity vs. Role confusion
this stage is all about high school and you growing and learning everything you will need to know as you grow into a young adult. high school is when people will either decide they like you and then you become a "popular" person or an "unpopular" person. throughout this stage you tend to ask yourself "who am I?" and "what do I want to do with my life?" you are being taught by both school and your parents what is is like to grow into a young adult. -
Stage 6: intimacy vs. isolation
this is a huge stage in every persons life. fo rsome people this stage might start to occur a little early and some a little late. this is the stage where you decide for yourself if you can and want to be loved my someone and if being in a relationship is something that you want. I met my significant other in high school and have been with him for over 2 years now so for some people, you marry your high school sweetheart. this stage is all about your young adulthood which is ages 18-40. -
Stage 7: Generativity vs. stagnation
This is the stage that considers you as an adult, which is ages 40-65. This stage is all about the age where you tend to care more for other than any other ages. you always want to figure out what you can do to contribute to the world. by this time, I have the job of being an elementary school teacher and have a career that I am enjoying and plan to retire in my 50s or 60s. -
Stage 8: Ego integrity vs. Despair
This stage is the last stage and is when your reach your full maturity. you start to think about what you have done with your life and ask yourself is you did everything you wanted to do and if you are happy with the way your life turned out. this stage is 65 and older when you don't do many physical activities and you live for the children you have and your grandchildren that love you just as much as you will love them. -
The ending letter
I want everyone I love to know how much I care about them even though I'm not with them like I used to be. I want everyone to know that I fulfilled my life with love and care and did everything I wanted to accomplish in life and I hope they will all do the same. I will be most proud of my children for all of their accomplishment I was able to witness and want them to raise their children right. I would want to have no regrets in life because everything happens for a reason.
