Identity And Moral Development

The purpose of life development is to allow the world to cultivate with divergent personalities as it continues to grow. Different personalities allow the world to flourish in all areas of life and allow the world to continue to evolve throughout time. There are several factors that help to develop a person’s identity, morality, faith, and psychosocial skills. I will discuss the how the experiences and the people who surrounded me throughout my life impacted how I formed my identity into what it is now. I will also discuss how those experiences helped lead me to where I currently am in each stage of my faith, my moral development, and my psychosocial development. I will also discuss what life events have had an impact on how I grew into the
As I have grown I have passed several different stages of faith development. I am currently sitting at Stage 4 of faith development according to Fowlers chart. First, the main reasons I fall into this category is because of my age a young adult and have not quite reached the age of 30 yet to go into stage 5, so, therefore, I am still considered to be a young adult.

I wanted a better life to help raise my child. I knew my child deserved a role model who would provide what she needed in life. I did not want my child to have to suffer in this world because I failed to be responsible. I took responsibility for my actions and made a long term plan to find in order to be able to financially and mentally support for her. Although, it sounded so easy to find an adequate job to financially support my child it was extremely hard and I struggled in several ways. Lastly, my third major experience in my life was when I married a man who belongs to the army. There is also the part where most wife’s typically go through their spouse being deployed.
