Essay: Life Span Development

When I was a child I usually being self-reliance as I little by little experienced

being compared with my siblings of my father for doing good in the house, and
even in school, experience having conflicts in the family oftentimes. At first, I
thought it will be okay since I was a child and it won’t bother my childhood but this
kind of experience keep repeating as age changes I learned to reflect on the
person that taught me to understand in some sort of situation and even in people
and be more responsible as much as I can. As I grew up, I never be in a
competition with my siblings because I know they deserve what they received. I
was just being a playful and joyful person with the people I’m comfortable with. I
thought these kinds of characteristics I would take now in my young adolescence
time but it changed, I develop and still developing for the characteristic that I
learning from any experienced that my self did and for the characteristic that I
wanted to have.

However, now that I’m in the age of young adolescent I’m learning to be
competent not in with the people who surround me, but with the young version of
myself as it helps me to gain and achieve what I aiming now and somehow for
being an active and productive person in which my young version taught me to be
knowledgeable through understanding and be responsible with the situation and
people whom I encounter in every day. For the person who I am before, to the
person who was compared before, to the person who is not average person but
always in the middle of everything and to the person who is self-reliance until now
is the person who I once seed then, bloom and grows from the experienced I
learned.
