Hello there my lovely hivers!!!
We had another activity in our developmental psychology, p is to interview a Child that ranges from 3-10 yrs old, 3 adolescent and 3 adulthood and old age. It was an eye opening activity for me.
I already interviewed a kid before the calamity happened and the age range of childhood was 3-10. So I chose the age 5, it was the student of my mother that time, since my mom was a substitute teacher for 1 month. This kid was really cute and shy, I can see myself on her back in my kindergarten days. But, she was close with her dad and she doesn't likely talk with her classmate and is more observant of her surrounding. She's also a smart kid.
Then, the next one the 3 adolescence. The first one is my brother, I ask about his risk taking and the intervention of it. In that way, he can look back on his bad behavior and correct it. The first thing he said was being in a basketball league with his friends and that caused him to be injured.
The second person I interviewed was my uncle, we were the same age but he was ahead of 4 months of me. The risk taking he does was being on the road racing with his motorcycle with his friends but he learned after what they do at that moment. It gave him lessons, that made him reflect on his behaviors after I questioned him. Lastly, my neighbor was connected to her studies. Shes trying to balance school expectations, family pressure and her own freedom.
Though that interview of mine, it gave me so much knowledge about risk taking. That made me understand that a lot of teens like me are trying to find balance between freedom and responsibilities. I realized that when considering a risk, I need to take into account the people I could hurt, including my family and friends.
