  1. It sounds like your very young, so you may not have accepted yourself for who you are yet. Look up something valled Erikson's stages. Explain that you haven't accepted yourself yet and explain why, by explaining Erikson's stage of identity vs. identity confusion. This will be a differnt kind of speech, but will probably impress your teacher.

    Ego Development Outcome: Identity vs. Role Confusion

    Basic Strengths: Devotion and Fidelity

    Up to this stage, according to Erikson, development mostly depends upon what is done to us. From here on out, development depends primarily upon what we do. And while adolescence is a stage at which we are neither a child nor an adult, life is definitely getting more complex as we attempt to find our own identity, struggle with social interactions, and grapple with moral issues.

    Our task is to discover who we are as individuals separate from our family of origin and as members of a wider society. Unfortunately for those around us, in this process many of us go into a period of withdrawing from responsibilities, which Erikson called a "moratorium." And if we are unsuccessful in navigating this stage, we will experience role confusion and upheaval.

    A significant task for us is to establish a philosophy of life and in this process we tend to think in terms of ideals, which are conflict free, rather than reality, which is not. The problem is that we don't have much experience and find it easy to substitute ideals for experience. However, we can also develop strong devotion to friends and causes.

    It is no surprise that our most significant relationships are with peer groups.


  2. What was the most difficult thing that has ever happened to you?

    Go from there. Did it help you accept that you won't always be right, or did it help you accept that you're a unique person, etc.
