One of the things i learned from this chapter is about the differense between nature/nurture. Nature is our gentic inheritance, and nurture or experiences taht influence our development. I put much thought into this and found the fallowing. I think that you only inherit so much, the way i see it you onlyhave ruffly 5 years to install all the morals you want to you kids. After that you will find you self or child learning things you really didn't want them to. Once in school we learn things constuctive and negitve things. The nature can only hold up to so much nurture. I am andy turenne and thats what i think.
Also i found Jean Piaget studies to be pretty cool, he really worked hard to anser some difficult questions. Piage's stages of cognitive develop is very intersting, to have all that information broke down that simple must have taking lots of time and studies. It is all so intersting, i like the sensorimotor stage the best. It says in the book that infants before the age of 6 months just live in the present which is pretty cool i think it just shows how much we really develope as the years go on. Can you imagine if we knew where something was, but then somebody put a blanket over it and we had no idea where it went, i think it would be pretty funny, i would hide stuff from my brothers with little effort. Piaget, i think is somebody to look up to, he always looked at thinks with a different angle then his peers i like to think that i also do.
Final one thing i also found interesting in this chapter is social identity. I like this because it asks who am I? really how do we really know what is in store for us. Also like when i get dressed i really don't think about, O i have to wear this because all my friends do, i like certain shirts and stuff but its not like i am looking to be somebody else. I do see myself actually doing somethings that i think about later as why did i do that, that isn't me, so i think if you say you aren't looking for who you are its a lie. Like Taylor Swifts song says "I didn't know who i was supposed to be at 15" is actually pretty right on.
This chapter cover allot of interesting things and also people i enjoyed reading it.

When you are talking about how you really only have 5 years to instill morals to your kids... I think you are so wrong, sorry, but i had to say it. I am 17 years old and i still take what my parents say and do into consideration. Sure not everything they say makes me change my views and gives me a moral. But other things that they will do i will think is just so great, and how i want to be "Just Like Them", to me, that is making me change my morals. You can't have the same ones as everybody, but you don't just stop getting morals when your 5. You can get them till the day you die. But that's just my opinion.
