Childhood Reflection Paper - 1067 Words

I wish I was told what I was going through physically and emotionally throughout my childhood. This is a paper about my life and I will incorporate the course material throughout this assignment.

It was a noble position that many in society respect because my dad always lectured me in being polite and fair to others. Good to know I was going through an identity state and I had much more to learn. Fast forward again and now I’m in junior high and in my early teen years. This is where the majority of people find themselves or go through many phases until they find the one they like. In my teens, I learned more about puberty, sexual education, and drugs.
