I was born to Rosann and Kevin Hampton in Kansas City, Missouri. -
Trust vs. Mistrust
Mom was always gone working and at this time I didnt really have my mom their, as well my dad was busy a lot taking care of my sister. This could have casued trust issues. -
Autonomy vs. Shame & Doubt
I learned how to potty train my self pretty easily and early which caused me to beleive in myself more. -
Initative vs. Guilt
Parents let me explore a lot and learn to be my own person. After a while of trying to reley on parents for attention, i leaned to do new things and explored the world on my own. -
Initative vs Guilt
Parents got divorced, and it was just my sister, mom, and i together for a while. For many years i felt guilt that it was my fault my parents got divorced. -
Industry vs Inferiority
School started and I didnt have many friends. Not because no one liked me but i didnt really like talking to anyone else. Which at earl childhood resulted in inferiority. -
Industry vs. Inferiority
After playing many sports such as basketball, football, soccer. It seemed easier to actually start liking more kids becuase we had a lot of the same interests. Ultimately resulted in having more friends which created a stable insustry. -
Mistrust
Dad and i had a lot of physcial and emotional problems with eachother. Hard times like this made me not want to even talk to him for a long time. Ultimately it made me not trust him. -
Role Confusion
Mom got remarried and i ended up having 2 other step brothers that lived with me. I started to change and rebel more becasue I didnt really know who i was or what i belonged to family or friends. -
Inferiority
I tried out for the KC Premiere basketball team for the "best" players out my age. I ended up not making the team, which really put a burden on me and i felt that i wasnt good enough to play. -
Shame & Doubt
Mom lost her job, and we were going into debt. Started wearing the same clothes all of the time, and didnt have any money. I doubted myself a lot at this time because i thought that I couldnt do anything right and that i couldnt help my mom at all. -
Autonomy
I started to take control of my life and wanted to never rely on anyone again. So i got my first job at McDonalds so that i can have a steady income coming in and wouldnt have to rely on my parents. -
Mistrust
My sister stole my debit card and stole 800 dollars from me while i was at school. Later in the years she kept doing the same thing. I realized at this time that i can completely not trust anyone besides my self. And that i always will need my guard up. -
Identity
I found a lot of my true friends and had a big group of them. We all balanced each other out pretty well and I acted more of myself and formed bonds with these people. -
Initative
It is my senior year and high school and i got accepted to the University of Missouri to go to college next year. At this time im asserting power and control in my life and balance myself so that i can be the first in my family to go to college, and do something positve in my life.
