Socialization of Children

Children are heavily influenced by everything around them. To them, everything is an agent of socialization because they are basically a blank slate. They are learning everyday what is acceptable and what isn't. This video called Children See, Children Do shows us that children are likely to follow the actions of the adults in their lives especially their family because that is one of their most influential agents of socialization. If parents are setting horrible examples to their kids, than it is likely that they are going to grow up thinking that the actions they saw represented by their parents are O.K.
