The woman shivered as if touched by a cold wind on her skin. She looked at her son with frightened eyes. "Why do you ask that?" The boy paused for a minute under his mother's gaze; then he leaned close to her ear and said softly, trying hard to hide his voice from his brother.

SocializationSocialization is the process that reaches individuals to become functioning human beings.The goals of socialization are: To transmit skills important to survival in society. To instill in its new members a desire to work toward goals that the society considers important. To teach members how to fulfill social roles. To provide each individual with his or her identity.Male dominance is the social situation in which more power and prestige are given to men than to women. Sexism is the ideology that supports gender inequality and justifies male dominance.Agents of socialization are specific people , groups, and organizations who are chiefly responsible for transforming an individual into a functioning human being such as the family ,the school , the peer group, the mass media, and religious groups. Other agents of socialization are youth organizations, corporation, clubs, political groups, and many others.The most important agent of socialization is the family. It is there where we first learn intimacy, emotions, power and other elements of human relationships. It is also there where we learn the components of culture such as values, norms, beliefs and language. It is there where we also learn the social structure.The school is the primary agent of socialization in industrial societies. Some of its manifest functions are to transmit the skills and value thought appropriate for earning a living and being a good citizen. One of its latent functions is exposing children to new attitudes, values, and ways of looking at the world.The peer group is a group of individuals of roughly the same age who are linked by common interest such as friends, clubs, gangs, and the kids of the neighborhood.The mass media are the various forms of communication that reach a large audience without any personal contract between the newspaper, magazines, books, television , radio, movies and videos.There are several stages in our life course-childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age. The number, length, and content of these stages vary from one society to another. Each society socializes its members to accept and effectively perform their changing roles at each stage.Kubler-ross has reported that a terminally ill person may undergo five stages, namely: denial, anger bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
