To try to understand childhood and adulthood, but also other aspects of human life, multiple aspects, tools and methods. Among these are cultural institutions that constitute fundamental aspects throughout someone's life, consciously or unconsciously. These are usually elements within a culture that are expected to be imperative or are routinely valued by members as their identity (Cicchetti & Cohen, 1995). In an exhibition about my childhood, a photo of my first day would inhibit the various cultural institutions. However, the most predominant factors would be education and family, and how others view this would also have an influence. As for family, it would be notable that on the first day my parents would both be present to take me to school. This is a clear indication that parents play a vital role in children's education and want to be present on the first day of school. The family would also be present in all phases of the first day of school. They will tend to accompany the child to all parts of the school and make him feel at ease in the new environment. The photo would also reflect education, another cultural institution. Education is an important aspect as it helps the person to add knowledge in a more diverse way than when they lack it. The photo would indicate that education begins from an early age and that parents are more than happy to introduce their children to an educational system from an early age. The emphasis of education is based on the fact that man must be identified with his level of intelligence which is perceived to be achieved and improved through education. The minority representation would be the government. The photo would be a representation of the government in ...... middle of paper ...... up to high school for me to be among the prominent personalities at the dance. The dance is also an indication that the society had a virtue for young, unmarried women. This was because the dance was intended to be a way to introduce unmarried women who had completed high school to other members of their polite society. There is therefore no question about the meaning of religion, government, family, education. and economic to the determination of cultural institutions. As such, the same should be preserved so as to remain the highlights of one's development in society. References Cicchetti, D., & Cohen, D. J. (1995). Perspective on developmental psychopathology.
