Sociolization/Adolescence Reflection

1.There is nature and nuture constantly throughout life. What I have chosen to wear today is mostly nuture. Something somewhat relating to nature with what I am wearing is a skirt. I am wearing a skirt because I am Jewish which is nature becaue I was born Jewish but the fact that I chose to wear a skirt is based off of the type of Jewish peopl I grew up around. Future professions is usually determined by the person themselves. As you go through school till you high school you get to try things out and figure out what you enjoy and then whatever you like best people try and find a profession in. All this is nuture. Sports and activities that people enjoy are nuture. You aren't born enjoying something as you are growing up you try different things and see what you like to do so mostly what you like is based off of nuture.
2. Adolescent social power is so important because they really have no other power. They are still told what to do, like going to school. They are trying to figure out what they want to do with life but they are still restricted. They spend so much time worrying about social power because it is the only power teenagers are able to attain. They are unable to get power in the work place or complete power over their life becase they are still living at home and going to school.
3.Today the sociolization for teenagers is different than it was in the past becuase of all the technology that we have. Teenagers have instant communication with their frineds basically 24/7 by texting, using facebook. Teenagers are spending more time with their friends and less time with their family. The problem raised is that teenagers are not going to be able to get along in the future when they grow up because they need instant things and not everything works like that further down the line. They aren't going to know what to do when there aren't things for them that they can use and they instead themselves have to create it.
4. Some gender differences in sociolizaion are things that you can see even through kids by the different toys that they play with. For example most girls commonly play with dolls. One of the common popular dolls is a barbie. Who has a perfect skinny body and girls from when they are little have this image that people need to be skinny to be good. An example of a toy for boys could be legos and how using legos to build what y ou like and then destroy it when you like.
