U1 Q5: My Healthy Relationship
A healthy relationship that I am a part of is my relationship with my cousin. Our relationship is a family one and we are very good friends. My cousin is only one year older than me so we get along well since we are close to the same age. She provides me with support and advice and I do the same for her. I trust her and she helps me when I need her help. There are some elements that make this a healthy relationship. Firstly, we both share a mutual respect for each others feelings, and we won’t say harsh things to one another. Secondly, we both feel comfortable talking to each other about our feelings. Thirdly, we can enjoy spending time together, but we can also enjoy spending time away from each other. Also we

Firstly, let me describe my intellectual development. If you look at me when I was younger and compare that to me now, you can tell that I have matured intellectually. When I was younger I was only capable of concrete thinking and learned through observing the world around me. Now as I have matured, I have developed abstract thinking skills and I am able to think about ideas that cannot be seen, such as love, and understand their importance. With my newly gained skills, I am able to think more about the meaning of certain events and understand what different motives people may have based off of their actions. Also a skill that I have grown to possess is my logical thinking skills, that enable me to bring several thoughts together to solve complex problems and with these skills I have gained more critical thinking skills and my thoughts are more meaningful. It is clear that I have matured intellectually if you take a look at my grades in school as I have grown older. When I was in elementary I did not get much awards such as honours, although I could see that change when I entered middle school because I would get honours and get good marks.Next, I will look at how my development will change by the time I am finished high school. I think that when I finish high school I will grow stronger in my thinking skills mentioned above. My ability to understand and think about my …show more content…
My mother was raised in a single parent family, and so was my father. My mom was raised by her mother only because my grandfather never lived with them and was never in the picture. My grandmother was a very strong woman and she raised three children by herself. She also built the house that they lived in by herself and she provided emotional support to my mom and her siblings. My father was also raised by his mother, but that was because my grandfather passed away when my father was very young. My father has six siblings and my grandmother took care of them all by herself, which is something that I admire about her. The type of family that I am in right now is a Nuclear Family. Since I am raised by both my parents. In my family I have three siblings. My parents meet all of our basic needs, because they provide food, shelter, clothing e.t.c. All of the members in our family provide emotional support and we all help each other to believe in ourselves and help us get through difficult times. The type of family that I want to create in the future is a nuclear family. I want to create a Nuclear Family because I have been raised in one and understand the benefits and I also think that it would be a great environment for my children to grow and thrive

In my immediate family, my grandmother and mother are the leaders. My mother provides for us through work and my grandmother kept me company and cooked for me. She would watch me when my mom was still at work when I got home from
Knowledge and skills are developed through the various phases of human life. The major drive to human development and grow can be understood by getting some insights from these theories. Charlie gradually grows emotionally, physically and sexually. He gets a drivers licence on his 16th birthday.
1.3 Explain the impact of adolescent development on a young persons thoughts, feelings and behaviours. During puberty the body will go through many changes and a young person will start to become more aware of their body and their personal appearance. As they go through these changes a young person will also try to find their identity but still want to fit in with their peers which may have an influence on their likes and dislikes. They will also become more sensitive to their feelings being highly emotional/upset or easily frustrated over minor issues. These emotional changes also cause mood swings resulting in young people becoming irritable or moody at times and not wanting to converse, this is also due to the hormonal changes
“I think part of maturity is knowing who you are.” (Rob Lowe) Various events that happen can mark your life tremendously. They can help you mature in many different ways coming from your background or culture. Many people believe that transitioning to an adult can take time.
Family loyalty is an important thing. As a family, trust and respect are needed to make a home run smoothly. I have two sisters and a brother whom I am loyal to and who are loyal to me. If something were to happen to them I would do whatever was needed to help them and they would do the same for me. We are all protective of each other but we also are have much fun together.
When I have my own family, I want them to know I did something tremendous with my life and be proud of me as a parent. I want to be able to provide them the life my parents weren’t able to give me. Growing up as a child, I had many obstacles at home dealing with separated parents. My dad lives in a different town with his
As adolescences enter adulthood, they enter a long transitional period, often known as “emerging adult”. This transitional period takes place over a range of 18 to 25 years old (Santrock, 2013). At this stage, emerging adults are still in exploration in the various aspect of life such as the career path they are interested in, defining their identities and a style of living they would want to adopt. Thus, adolescences who are in transition will be caught with many intense changes and will experience major life events that are all of great importance.
I have seen my family stick there through it all and not leave you even when times get rough, which is why this diversity makes a great impact and shapes me into the person I am. Families are diverse all over the world, and no two families are the same. I never had a chance to meet my extended family from my mother’s side because her parents passed away before I was born and she was the only child in her household. I grew up only spending parts of the day with my father and the other half with my mother. Other peers in places that I would go to school with thought my family was together because they were more involved in what I liked to do when I was younger.
Adolescence and Emerging Adulthood Human development changes throughout a lifespan and those changes include, physical, cognitive, social, and emotional changes between birth and adulthood. This paper reflects my own personal changes and focuses specifically on the changes concerning both cognitive development and psychosocial development. Cognitive development involves the mental mind and allows for reasoning and the ability to make decisions, based on logic and reason, to take place. Once individuals reach the age to reason, the maturity levels and past experiences shifts to concrete operational thinking.
In a usual family, there are set roles. A father, mother, and children. Stereotypically, each role is supposed to have a set job- the father is in charge of the family, making the rules, the mother cooks and helps the children, and the children play. This stereotype is slowly changing throughout the years, and some could argue that it is different for their family. One thing that should be true in all families, is that the parents are good role models for their children, leading them in the right direction in life.
That was one big factor that lacked in my own personal relationship, there was no trust. Having no trust causes a toxic and controlling relationship to occur. My grandparents have been married for 50 years, and it amazes me how strong they are together. My grandma always told me that a strong relationship will always prevail if you work together and have no barriers set between you two. So this love is much more than a deep affection, which is hard to express into

My family is very inspiring to me. I am very thankful that my parents brought me into this world. Growing up my parents always showed me how exactly things work in life.
