· Socialization Process
Agents of Socialization are groups that affect human beings to become socialization. There are five different groups in society where humans influence society as socialization. The most basic and the first is the family. The family is first born as a place where socialization occurs, leading to the most basic lifestyle. Second is peer group. In the peer group, humans can learn group life, method or order, affects each other's behavior, and acts as a group of like-minded friends. Third, schools can help humans adapt to community life by learning the various knowledge, function, values that necessary to support society. Fourth is company or workplace. This group affects humans by experiencing relationships with their bosses and relationships with co-workers. The last is a mass media. It has become increasingly influential in modern societies by providing various information and knowledge than before.
Family is the first society I’ve experienced in my life. I think I was received by my parents within the confines of the family life before I went out to society. Ordinary people often learn to acquire their culture naturally in society; nevertheless, there are many moral and norms that learn from the teachings of parents. My parents played the biggest role in my overall socialization. When I was young, I used to live in a city called Incheon. My family lived together near my parents ' acquaintances in Incheon. Therefore, my family often went to a lot of places such as mountain, sea, countryside, and amusement park with families of all acquaintances. As a result, in meeting with people, I was formed with a group of children from my parents ' acquaintances. When I had to gradually integrate into society as a member of society, my parents told me how to behave in the outside. Since respecting for elders is especially important to Korean, my parents told me about what I should do to adults and what I shouldn’t do. Also, when I played with my friends, they pointed out the rules of having to play nice with friends instead of fighting them. It is also true that human get through social processes since they started to go to school. There are numerous moral and norms in society, even in the society of schools. As a result, students learn to socialize with themselves as part of their society. But I still think family is the most important thing. In my experience, my parents were able to get advice when I was unable to overcome the problem among my teacher and friends at school. Thus, I think the most influential agent of socialization in my life is my family.
My parents did not treat or discriminate differently depending on gender. At first, I knew my parents ' behavior was obvious, but I felt grateful to my parents for not hearing anything from my friends. However, I could see something differently depending on the man and woman not far from me. Confucianism has deep-rooted in Korea society. There is a predominance of male attitudes toward male superiority in Confucian ideology. Although the younger generation doesn’t actually place a greater emphasis on the gender of their children, they still prefer having boys if given a choice. My grandparents are also adults who like preference for sons. One example is shown in Korean national holidays. On holidays, all the families gather for ancestral rites and prepare food for the entire day. At that time, they forbid all men, including father and uncles, from cooking ancestral rites food. So, men go outside and spend time watching TV when women prepare for food. In fact, normally, the grandparents don't understand and let the man get into the kitchen. Second, it appears at mealtime. After performing ancestral rites and eating, men and women eat at different tables. Sometimes food and quantity of food are set differently for men, and they eat food than women. At first, it was hard to adapt to the authoritative atmosphere for man, but now I understand the behavior of my grandparents. My grandparents have lived in a society with a strong Confucian values. The society where they lived was far too different from now on. Since they have lived with Confucianism for a long time, I think it is right to understand and respect them.
