Maria developed three stages of children’s development based on her knowledge and observations. The first stage is the stage of the ‘absorbent mind’, which is from birth to 6 years of age. This stage is when the child is exploring his/her environment, absorbing information, and creating their concepts of reality. The second stage is from 6 to 12 years of age; this is when the child is using skills learned in the first stage. During this stage the child is reinforcing and expanding the skills learned in the previous stage. Maria’s final stage of child development is from 12 to 18 years of age. This is when the adolescent comprehends social roles and trying to find their place in society.

It could have been predicted that the pathways of physical, cognitive, and social development would progress to where they are now undoubtedly. In terms of physical development, Mia has shown interest in the sport of softball since the young age of six years old. By the age of thirteen she joined the school team and went on to play on the varsity team (Manis, 2006). Mia has played up until this point and she seems to enjoy the sport and being physically active in all that she does. In terms of cognitive development, Mia has shown strength academically since the age of eight. In Mia's psychologist report it is noted that her scores for math concepts were in the gifted range, as well as results with Information (15), Vocabulary (17), Similarities (16), Comprehension (16) mostly being two standard deviations above the mean scores for other children her age. These scores showed that she was gifted in those categories as well. Mia proved this to be true as she has never received a grade lower than an A in all of her academic career (Manis, 2006). Finally, in terms of social development, Mia has shown positive trends since the fifth grade. It is noted in her report card that she was a pleasure to have in class and that she worked cooperatively in group settings (Manis, 2006). As Mia got older, her ability to function socially improved as well, she has made a group of friends that she enjoys spending time with, and she seems to have minimal conflicts with others when she meets someone new. Mia has had her ups and downs along the way, but overall Mia has definitely shown that she is capable of being sociable in a way that others enjoy her company (Manis,

Maria was scared of Jawanna and did everything she told her to do. For an example when Jawanna wanted Maria’s brownie she gave it to her, even though Maria wanted it for herself. Jawanna had basically owned Maria. Once when Maria only had one pencil she gave it to Jawanna just because she asked for it. Jessica, Maria’s friend tried to convince Maria to stick up for herself or the bullying would never stop. After Maria thought about it and a talk with Ms. McMillan she said enough is enough. The next day on the school’s playground Jawanna had came to Maria and said that she needed to do her homework for her. Maria then told Jawanna that she didn’t have to time to do her homework or anything else for her again. From that day forward, Maria

For example, Alex goes to Tipton Rosemark Academy in Tipton County. She joined the golf team and the art club in order to interact with more people; However, she does not score as well as the other girls on the team, and has a different art style than the other art club members. This makes Alex feel self-conscious and she becomes more reclusive as a result, because she fears what her colleagues and teammates will say about her. The team and her schoolmates do not dislike Alex for these reasons as she assumes. Presuming she is conceited as a result of her withdrawn tendencies, they decide it is best to not include her. Moreover, the popular group sees her as a good target because of it. As a result, Alex typically gets stuck going out with her parents or invited to do things when she overhears the planning conversations. Being the type of person she is, Alex never said a word and has been dealing with this since the sixth grade. This affects Alex’s parents because they hurt for their child, wishing that it could be different for her. Alex is aware if she does not at least try to do something, she is not going to be involved or ever make more friends, and remains fully aware that the situation has an indefinite chance of continuing in the case she does not do anything about it; and thus, resolves to make a change.
