Early Childhood: Cognitive Development
My parents helped me with language acquisition by always talking to me in English on certain days, or when speaking with my cousins or sister to only speak in English with them. I did that for so long that my cousins, my sister, and I only spoke English and our parents couldn't understand all of us because they weren't the best at it. Watching Indian movies with my parents also helped me learn Punjabi and Hindi. -

When I played cricket, the gross motor skills I used were swinging the bat, running, and throwing the ball. -
Middle Childhood: Cognitive Development
All my life in school I was told I was "Gifted" and my parents always rewarded me with gifts for doing so good. Everything always came really easy to me and I was always getting As in class and made my first B my senior year of high school. All this taught me was that intelligence is meaningless by just being called smart. I never learned to work hard and study because things just came to me. Now I'm struggling in college because I don't know how to study. I wish I was told I was a hard worker. -

My closest relationship now is with my girlfriend Laura. Our attachment style is secure. We both are very happy and treat each other as equals. We understand each other and how we act emotionally and cognitively. -
Early Adulthood: Emotional Development
I feel like now Sternberg would describe my relationship as Consummate love. This is most appropriate now because I'm old enough to understand the different aspects and intricacies of a relationship and their individual importances.
