Question A: Self-identity
\nOur lives
\nare always in progress. Our reality is that for most of us our self-identity is
\nconstantly under attack. At any age we can get in to trouble because we lack
\ncritical thinking.\u00a0 Lack of a critical thinking can hurt by looking down
\non our own self-identity or put ourselves in dangerous situations.\u00a0 One of
\nbarriers to the development of critical thinking and self, as a part of our
\nenculturation can be our social self or self-concept. Your text discusses
\nself-concept as follows: \u00a0“Our self-concept is the way we view
\nourselves. It may be unhealthy if we see ourselves rather negatively as, for
\nexample, someone who is not very intelligent or very pretty; or it may be
\npositive and healthy, as when we believe ourselves to be an attractive and
\nworthwhile person. What goes into our idea of ourselves may include not only
\nintelligence and attractiveness but a variety of other things: the sports team
\nwe favor, our grades in school, our home, friends, religion, state, country,
\ncar, political position, values, possessions, and so on.” (Schaefer, 1)<\/p>\n
The development of self, physical, psychological, and social is the state of
\nour being. As our physical being changes throughout our lives our psychological
\nand social selves are under many influences. These influences make change
\ninevitable. We can shape our own psychology of our social state more than we
\ncan control our physical state. If we try to be aware of these three dimensions
\nof our lives we can develop an “open” mind to be curious and refuse
\nto take anything at face value. Our parents definitely, present or absent, have
\na great deal of influence on our psyche, therefore, on our development of a
\nsocial self. Often, our parents influence gives us the window to the outside
\nworld in our childhood. These influences are manifested inwardly and outwardly.
\nSome of us at a certain age question these influences. But most of us go on and
\naccept these influences as our own. Those of us that question the world of our
\nparents have to proceed to develop our own social selves personally or under
\nother influences. This process might be very rewarding or difficult. On the
\nother hand, following our parents foot steps might be comforting without new
\nchallenges.
\nTherefore, most of our reaction to right or wrong in our lifetime, one way or
\nother, is a product of social self-development. The major institutions of our
\nsociety set the standards, norms, values and laws, to indoctrinate us as what
\nis right and what is wrong. As we have discussed this issue before, the major
\ninstitutions involved with setting the moral standards for the social self are
\nour family, our religion, and our political system. The school system, after
\nfamily, is an important vehicle to transfer these norms, values and laws to us.
