The person I interviewed was my mom. My mom is 43 years old. She works at Amerigas Propane Company as the front desk receptionist. When asked how life is different for teenagers today compared to then, she answered, “we worked and did chores outside, inside, or wherever. We didn’t backtalk or sass our parents or we would have gotten our mouths slapped. Once is all it took.” When I asked my mom if she would like to switch places with teenagers today, she said, “I wouldn’t want to. Life was much more simple back then.” I asked my mom if she could offer advice to teenagers now what would it be? She answered, “listen to your parents and your elders. They have experience and most of the time, they do know best. They love you and want only what’s best for you. One day, they will be gone and you will wish they were her to do it over.” I asked my mom where she would like to be in five years and she answered, “I would like to be out of debt and be able to stay home more often as a wife and mother.” The final question I asked was what her biggest accomplishment was and she said, “my children are my greatest accomplishment.”
My mom is in the generativity vs. stagnation. She is contributing to this psychosocial crisis because she is raising children and feels successful with her life. I don not believe my mom has feelings of stagnation because she has raised four wonderful children, she is happily married to her soul mate and she has a successful job. I would say that my mom’s fluid intelligence level has not decreased and gotten worse over time, well maybe a little. I can tell that her crystallized intelligence has gotten better because she is very social and talks to everyone and she has obtained a lot of information through out the years that she can recall. According to Piaget, she is in the formal operation stage of cognitive development. She has been through all of Piaget’s stages. My mother’s social clock events would be being married and having

    For my interview I choose to speak to Jaquetta Harris, executive director of the leasing department at the Rochester Housing Authority (RHA). Having been employed with RHA for less than one year, Mrs. Harris has had to overcome many obstacles accompanied with being new to the organization and also being an African American female leader.

    This article was full of information in the transition to adulthood. It begins with a history of becoming an adult. This article takes you through comparisons of the statistics from the past to now. This article gives you an idea on the difference between race and ethnic backgrounds. It also provides support for its findings. What I found interesting in this article is that back in the day, which young people viewed adulthood as a requirement at an early age. Nowadays young people are taking a lot longer to transition to adulthood, they are completing college and finding careers, I think is a great thing. Children need to focus on their education and the opposite sex. I think it is important for young men and women to have a plan of action about where their life is headed. I think today we are more thinkers then doers, I think we are looking into the long-term affect more now. This also gave me statics on when the kids become independent, the past versus present, male, female, and race. I choose this article because I have a step son in the military; this article gave me ideas on how fast they are required to step into adulthood. It was interesting to discover the difference between the age groups, races and what programs they are involved in. If I had to write a research paper this would be the article I would use. This is an interesting topic that I think I could take further. After reviewing this article I feel this is a creditable source, it has supporting facts and documentation to back up its findings, reads well the flow is right. This was definitely a very informative piece of work and you can tell the author spent their time and effort on this as well.…

    Picking someone for this paper was much more difficult than the first one, at immediate thought the only people I knew over the age of 65 were my family members. I started to look into some of my friends’ parents but they were not quite there. Then it hit me, the perfect person to interview would be my friend that passed away in Dickinson, her grandmother. She is one of the most loving, caring, supportive grandparents I have ever met. I have always seen her from that stand point so interviewing her would only help me to understand how she became the way she is today.…

    I was very wrong, interviewing Ms. Rose taught me many new things and helped me understand that every ethnic group deals with hardships, maybe not the exact same hardship but similar ones. Hearing some of the hard time Ms. Rose encountered with her live made me appreciate that I am living in a time where there is not much discrimination within communities. Although there are still hardships I know I cannot compare to the ones that Ms. Rose faced or to what her own family faced, where many rights were not available for to them and not able to share ideas or be involved with other ethnic groups. Ms. Rose shared that she has some chronic conditions that have been hard for her. In which she always has to be on the lookout for her health because serious problems could arise if she does not. This really opened up my eyes on how I need to take care of myself and try to be healthy because it can affect me in my older years. Although, Ms. Rose said she does not let her condition stop her from taking care of herself and being active. Getting to know Ms. Rose's condition made me realize that many elderly people endure these conditions or face other more challenging illnesses that affect their well-being on a day-to-day basis. Learning from Ms. Rose experience has helped me expand my thoughts on how I can help the elderly around me and share the knowledge that I have acquired from my interview and the knowledge gained from my class lectures. One of the difficulties that I encountered with my interview was that I had to communicate with Ms. Rose over the phone. I really would have liked to have met Ms. Rose in person because it would have been nice to see her expressions in the way she shared details of her life and accomplishments. Another thing that I had difficulty in was going out of my comfort…

    Growing up in a single parent home isn’t exactly what you would call easy. It was difficult, but it shaped me into the person I am today, a hardworking independent student with big dreams. My mom went through a lot to raise me and my older sister the “right” way. Her strong influence made her my top role model, the one person I aspire to be like in the future. My father was gone most of my life. From the stories that I’ve heard, he’s not a nice person. My mom never goes much into any topic concerning my father, for the fear that it could damage any possible future relationship between me and him, although I never really felt any connection. When I was six, he was put in jail for armed robbery. I still remember the weekly 15 minute phone calls that would just end if we didn’t say goodbye in time, no extensions. That was before I knew all the things he did.…

    "If you would attain to what you are not yet, you must always be displeased by what you are. For where you are pleased with yourself there you have remained. Keep adding, keeps walking, and keeps advancing." My mother is the person who I admire the most, looking up at her as my idol, and listen to her is my mother. By interviewing gives me an idea that to change of someone who is very special is not difficult and it even gives someone a new life. My mother changes her attitude because of my father from a stubborn and hot tempered woman to calm and steady person. To me I think it is very amazing that one person can change her nature which had stuck with her for a long time because of another man. This interview is very special because it is…

    Before starting the interview I would like to tell about my mother. She is now 51 years old, chubby, and tan. When she was young she was staying with my grandfather first wife. My grandfather wife is kind her children are mean to my mom. Many events that had happened to my mother when she was young lead to her nature which was aggressive, hot tempered, and stubborn. “At that time I and my sisters were still young I was about 12 my younger sisters were 10 and 8 but we had to work very hard. Before going to school I had to cook the breakfast for everyone in the house. After I came back from the school I had to wash the clothes, iron the clothes, and cook the dinner. You might think that this is not that hard to do but one thing that had happened to me and I will never forget is that when ever someone’s money is lost, my step brothers and sisters will set up the fire and burn coal. What they do is that they will let me and my sisters touch that very red, hot, burning coal, I had no choice but to tell them I am the one who stole their money to protect my sisters from getting hurt. This event make me a stubborn child, very hot tempered and aggressive.”As I…
