Tell a Friend
Life in the family paves the way for children to enter the world of adults. Although you are born into a very small universe of just you and your mother you soon widen your circle to embrace the world of the family. You start with your father, brothers and sisters and gradually add members of your extended family. Your nest step takes you out to the wider community of school, religious circle, or ethnic group and the friendships you form yourself with people in your peer group. Each new range of contacts builds on what has been laid down by previous spheres, and each new relationship adds to your emotional and social experience.
