Introduction

Socialization has helped both the young and adults to be morally and religiously refined, which will help them to become good citizens in a Country and the world as a whole.

The lesson was very interesting and rewarding, because I have learnt a lot from it and I will love to give answers to the exercise given. Want to thank @udyliciouz, our social studies teacher for bringing a wonderful lesson again, ad she's always ready to feed us with new lessons.

Is agencies and Agent of socialization the same?

To differentiate this, I will give definitions to the terms.

  • Agencies of socialization: From the lesson, I learnt that agencies of socialization are places or where socialization takes place, so I would say that;
  1. The school
  2. church
  3. social media ..etc
    Are all agencies of socialization, we learn good Morals from churches, school and so on... They teach us how to be good citizens and people .

  • Agents of socialization: These are those things which aid socialization, they help to socialize and individual. It might be a fellow individual or an association which helps to instill good behavior to a person. It can be churches, schools, an organization etc.

I would say that both Agents and Agencies of socialization serve the same purpose, the make sure that socialization takes place.

Agents of socialization
  • The Home
    This is the first training ground for every human, this is where the basics of life is being known, a child will actually behave like the family or how the family behaves. So if the family gives their child a good home training, it will help the child as he/she grows up.
    So socialization starts at home. As there's a popular Bible quote given to parents and other agents of socialization which is " Train up a child in the way he should grow and when he is old he will not depart from it"

  • The church
    The church is another important agent of socialization, as every one in the church is in one way or the other an agent of socialization, the church teaches individuals how to live peacefully with love. A serious individual who takes heed to teachings in church and advice will always have good Morals.
    After the family the church is always the next area of concentration for an individuals bad behavior, if a person commits the question people will ask first is, which family is he/she from and the next will be which church does he attend.

  • School
    Schools instills knowledge in a child and also disciplines a child to live a good life, they are one of the important agents of socialization, because In a person's lifetime, an individual spends upto 23 years in school. So it is an important agent of socialization.

  • Mass Media

The mass media currently is playing a crucial role in the live of an individual based on socialization, many people tend to learn from all these medias now

Effects of socialization

Socialization has an heavy effect in everyone's life.

  • It moulds an individual with good behaviors
  • it will create a peaceful coexistence among people.
  • it will create love and peace amongst people
  • it will bring understanding because people will take time to socialize and understand an individual
  • The world will be a better place to live in.
Conclusion

Socialization benefits the society, so we should teach others good behaviors by actually doing what is right.
