Quotes About Socialization

We raise our children, especially girls, to ignore their spontaneious reactions-we teach them not to rock the societal boat...By the time she is thirty, the valient little girl's "Ick!"-her tendency to respond, to rock the boat, when someone's actions are really mean, may have been exciese from her behavior, and perhaps from her very mind.
~ Martha Stout
When you teach your daughter, explicitly or by passive rejection, that she must ignore her outrage, that she must be kind and accepting to the point of not defending herself or other people, that she must not rock the boat for any reason, you are not strengthening her prosocial sense;you are damaging it--and the first person she will stop protecting is herself.
~ Martha Stout
Holiness, Faith and Religion can never be institutionalized because they are the individual property of every man, they are a part of each mans Sacred Self, and their socialization can be done only by accepting the individuality of each such Sacred Self.

The medium through which this most often happens is cooperative, including linguistic, communication. Cooperative and linguistic communication are thus of crucial importance in children's developing skills for jointly attending with others to external situations and to one another's ideas—and for mentally coordinating within those shared realities. But cooperative and linguistic communication are interesting and important in their own right as well.
~ Michael Tomasello
Men live alongside one another like cattle; it is a miracle if once in a while they manage to share a bottle of booze.

serial killers report themselves as very lonely children who felt alienated and isolated from their peers. During their latency phases they did not learn to socialise, they did not learn to empathise with others and they did not incorporate moral and ethical values.
~ Unknown

Like all serial killers, Bongani's father was emotionally absent to him as a little boy. He never had the chance to identify with a father figure at the beginning of the latency phase, which should commence at about six years. This is the time when children go to school, socialise and incorporate society's moral and ethical values and this marks the development of a conscience, or superego as Freud called it.
~ Unknown
the serial killer has no positive father figure with whom to identify during the latency period and he does not manage the socialisation process, and therefore does not develop a superego, or develops only faint traces of a superego.

And the most effective form of socialization is achieved when people identify so thoroughly with the social order that they no longer can imagine themselves breaking any of its rules.
~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
A thoroughly socialized person is one who desires only the rewards that others around him have agreed he should long for—rewards often grafted onto genetically programmed desires.

Freud called the first stage of life "polymorphous perverse." At birth infants are so undifferentiated that they have the capacity to receive erotic stimulation at every aperture of the body and any area of skin: from either or both sexes; from animals, food, objects, colors, currents of air, gradations of temperature. As we grow older, become socialized, and develop identity, the satisfactions we pursue become more specific.
