their impact on my life events.
MAIN BODY
Impact of chosen life event on your development by applying theory
The life event which is experienced as well as shared by me was attending high
school. This experience is faced by each and every people in their life time (Ben-Pazi, 2017).
Such experience is mixture of both happy and sad feeling because whenever I joined high
school then I had to adjust with school, friend, teacher and so on whereas after studying
several years when I have to left it I got emotional or sad feeling towards it. This is regarded
as best part of everyone’s life because it helps in providing basis understanding of existence
and people living in society. This was the best experience which has been incurred by me
while attending high school which helped me to build my career growth as well as success at
marketplace. It also assisted me in getting good jobs. Impact of respective life event on
development is explained with help of theories which are described here. The first theory is
Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological which was developed by American Psychologist named
as Urie Bronfenbrenner in order to explain about qualities of children as well as environment
in which they interact to develop and grow (What is Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems
Theory?, 2020). It mainly focus on significant of studying children in several environments
called ecological systems for better understanding of development. As per this theory,
children find themselves in different systems from home ecological to school including
culture as well as society. All of these interact with each other and influence live of people. It
is divided into five level of outside environment or influence that rises from intimate level to
broadest.

First level is Microsystem which is defined as smallest as well as immediate
environment where children live (Burridge, 2015). It includes daily activities of children such
as going to school, home, community environment, peer group and other. Interaction with
microsystem assists in developing personal relationship with classmate, caregivers and
classmate. In case of attending high school by me helped to develop relationship with their
friends, teachers and other so that I can grow and get success. Such helped me to build my
career and improved development. Such system is possible for all those siblings who focus
on finding themselves in similar category of ecology system in order to experience several
environments. As it is not possible for equal development of both due to different in traits,
biological factors, temperament and so on. Second level is Mesosystem which is defined as
interaction of various microsystems is found by children (Ruan, 2019). This includes
connection among school and home, between family and group and among society and
community. As per this theory, if parents of children are involved in doing friendship with
their child then this helps them to develop in positive manner. As per my own experience, my
parents are very friendly in nature that helped in each and every phase of my life so that I can
develop better career and achieve success and growth in an effective manner. It was my good
experience because there were many things which have been taught by my father to enhance
my skills and learning. On other hand, if children do not like their parents then it leads to
create negative development of their live. It is responsibility of parents to make their children
to understand things in positive manner.
Third level is Exosystem of development where there is linkage among two or more
setting where one of it does not contain to develop children but affecting them indirectly
(Crossley and et. al., 2015). Places as well as people where a child does not interact directly
have impact on lives. These include extended family members, parents’ workplaces and
neighbours. For example, when father of child is not promoted at workplace then he
misbehaves or mistreats them at house. In my case, I also faced same problem because my
parents was to promote to higher position but he did not so he mistreated me which impact on
my personal development. When he realised his mistake, he felt sorry for it so that I can
develop in positive manner along with develop career at initial phase of my life. Fourth level
is Macrosystem which is referred as most distant as well as largest gathering of places and
people to children who has influence on them (Noroozi, Biemans and Mulder, 2016). Such
level is composed of different cultural values, pattern of children in terms of their ideas,
beliefs, economic and political system. For instance, child who has seen wars in their areas
