Various milestones from conception to death

Reference no: EM13486242

Human development is a process in which there are various milestones from conception to death, all of which require mastery. In terms of an individual's healthy physical functioning, is the period of prenatal developmental more critical than any other stage of development? If you answered yes, what makes it most critical? If you pick another stage, such as adolescence, what makes that most critical? On page 250 in the textbook, you can find Erik Eriksonas eight stages of psychosocial development. Each of these stages comes with a corresponding psychosocial challenge. In Stage 1, for example, the challenge is that of trust versus mistrust. While all of these challenges must be met and overcome, which one of the challenges do you think is the most difficult for an individual to successfully resolve? Please explain the reasons for your choice and supply supporting data for your opinion.
