The lifelong socialization process involves many different social forces which influenc

13、e our lives and alter our self-images. Family The family is the institution most closely associated with the process of socialization. Obviously, one of its primary functions is the care and rearing of children. We experience socialization first as babies and infants living in families; it is here t

14、hat we develop an initial sense of self. Most parents seek to help their children become competent adolescents and self-sufficient adults, which means socializing them into the norms and values of both the family and the larger society. The development of the self is a critical aspect of the early y

15、ears of ones life. In the United States, such social development includes exposure to cultural assumptions regarding sex differences. The term “gender roles“ refers to expectations regarding the proper behavior, attitudes, and activities of males and females. As the primary agents of childhood socia

By the twins high school years, Ron is well known as a “science whiz.“ The guidance cou

20、nselor suggests that he attend a college with a strong science program in order to achieve his goal of becoming a biologist. Louise has realized that she would like to become an astronomer, but the counselor and her parents pressure her into preparing for a career as an early childhood teacher a car

21、eer which they see as more suitable for a woman. During their college years, Ron and Louise might develop self-images as “scientist“ and “teacher,“ respectively. On the other hand, Louise might get to college, switch her major, and become an astronomer despite everyone s opp6sition. Neither of these

22、 young people is a passive actor who will inevitably follow the traditional gender roles of American society. Yet it can be extremely difficult to pursue a career, or any other type of life choice if ones parents, teachers, and the society as a whole seem to be telling you that you are unmasculine o

23、r feminine for doing so. Without question, differential socialization has a powerful impact on the development of American females and males.
