Language is a cognitive function that most of us take for granted. It starts from early on‚ some say at conception‚ and it develops in complexity as we get older. It is an essential part of communication and without it its development would be greatly hindered. This natural process requires complex structures and reasoning‚ the bringing together of sounds and words to develop concrete ideas and thoughts.

According to Erik Erikson‚ there are eight stages of development an individual will experience throughout his or her lifetime. One of Erikson’s stages‚ which he named identity versus identity confusion‚ occurs specifically in the developmental period of adolescence.
