Answer 1

I have no idea what Havinghurst is but I will give it a shot.  

When are very young, in the infant early childhood stage, you quickly learn that members of society can be divided into two categories, boys and girls, and that those two categories are mutually exclusive.

You begin to understand one's place in society and how society functions as very large singular organism.

In adolesence you begin understand what is real and what is fake, what is possible and what is not possible.  You also begin create a sort of moral code that forms the backbone of your opinions and beliefs about the world.

In early adulthood you begin serving as part of the large...you know what I am just rewording what you already have.  I will quit.
