At this seminar, my colleague, Ms. Felicity Richards, and I will undertake some guided self-analysis touching on behaviour, attitude, temperament and thinking to identify habits or issues that affect relationships on a personal and professional level. |

Adolescence has come to be known as a time of inner turmoil, as a period of “storm and stress.” This inner turmoil finds external expression especially within the family and school, and the adults who have to deal with adolescents come in for their share of the turmoil. Researchers ascribe the commotion of this age to the physiological upheaval associated with puberty and to the discrepancy between the adolescent’s sexual maturity and mental immaturity. Of course there are many young people who do not experience the inner turmoil mentioned above. |

The period of life from age six to age twelve plus points to important characteristics of development. It is a time highly favourable to formal learning. It is the time of gangs or affiliation with one’s age mates. These years begin with the loss of the first baby teeth and end at about the time the permanent teeth are in place. This stage of life is seen as the years that adults know the least about. One reason is that children of this age turn their backs on adults and unite in a society of children. It is the time when the values held by one’s peers become more important than those of the parents. What is more, these children learn to keep their thoughts from adults. They stop thinking out loud and besides practice deliberate deception. To fortify their hostility toward adults, together with their peer group solidarity, they form secret societies. Although a given club may last no more than days or weeks, it may be protected by mortal oaths and covenants, binding for life and countersigned in red ink. |

Between the ages of two and three, the child moves out of toddlerhood and becomes a preschool child. His growing mastery of language and materials makes communication with him less demanding than with a toddler, but his very competence makes clearly evident his limitations. The child whose parents have the time and energy and the inclination to talk with and listen to, who surround him with books and pictures and music and raw materials to be shaped as he sees fit, who can take him to the zoo and a farm and the seashore, is the child who has a vivid imagination, penetrating insight, is happy, mischievous, energetic, and a great pleasure to be with. |
