Answer 1

One of the most important agents of socialization is my family. My parents and other family members influenced the way I think, behave and react to the world. My parents used to discuss about the society, politics, education, advancement in the society. They helped me form my attitude and personality in the beginning from my childhood in terms of managing relationships and live with people who would form a family. The second most important agents of socialization are my friends. They helped me learn the most important aspects of live such as, sharing, motivating and helping each other to become better people. This would mean that friends are people who really help one be there in the society by moving around and experiencing the world around one. Finally, educational institution opened my eyes on living with people from multiple backgrounds and shape myself to prepare for a future in terms of career and family in the society. Educational institution also helps me to know better about myself and my strengths thus, utilize them to socialize better in the society, workplace and in the family.
