Chapter 5: The Girl and Her Age Group
Summary:
This chapter talks about the younger stages of child life, mainly girls but boys some, and some of there tendencies after puberty. It talks about how they form groups that are like 'gangs' and are based on age. For young girls before puberty they don't have this grouping because of what the author says is 'individual nature of their tasks'. Boys however have more freedom and their activities support co-operation.
Discussion:
This chapter was not very interesting for me to read but it is an important chapter. It shows how the children group themselves and what else could influence this grouping like age, rank, and prospective rank.
