Explain the main stages of human development and describe what you think may be the important hallmarks of each stage. Remember to utilize your course and relevant outside readings to support your assumptions.

Week 1 Discussion

We began the study of human development by understanding that human development is more than just going from child to adult. Human development continues through the life-span, hence the term life-span development. Even though we look at human development across the life-span, there are still hallmarks or stages of human development that are considered distinct, especially in terms of psychosocial and physiological development.

Analyze Ardell’s experience as described in the scenario. In what way was Ardell’s reaction to the news of her impending death inconsistent with the Elisabeth Kübler-Ross stages of death and dying?

End of the human life span

As we reach the end of the human life span, we all face the issue of death. The most influential theory about our psychological reaction to death and dying is from a psychiatrist, Elisabeth Kübler-Ross. Based on extensive interviews of people who were dying, Dr. Kübler-Ross developed a five stage theory to describe our response to the news of imminent death. The stages include denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Although well-respected and clearly a pioneer in the field, the theory has limitations and has drawn some criticism.

Consider the following scenario:

In early March of 2005, Ardell was diagnosed with lung cancer and was told that she had about 6 months to live. At first Ardell told her friends that she felt fine and she thought the doctor was wrong. She sought out the opinion of a few other doctors, all of whom confirmed the original prognosis. Ardell became angry. She lashed out at her friends and expressed jealousy about their healthy state. About a month later her anger subsided and Ardell found herself in a state of deep depression. She didn’t want to see any of her friends – she just wanted to be alone. Her friends tried to reach out to her, visiting her at home. But when they dropped by, Ardell would get angry, again expressing jealousy and rage over their enviable state of good health. After a fit of anger, she would often apologize to her friends and tell them that her anger was from her fear. This vacillation between anger, depression, and fear seemed to continue until her final days. Ardell passed away in October, about 7 months after her initial diagnosis.

Analyze Ardell’s experience as described in the scenario. In what way was Ardell’s reaction to the news of her impending death inconsistent with the Elisabeth Kübler-Ross stages of death and dying? Make sure you include limitations of the theory in your discussion.

There are two questions to this assignment, you can answer each question with about ‼️135 words a piece‼️

The first one is,
Parents are naturally protective of the privacy of their families and are frequently uncomfortable with school personnel having access to private family information. They are also rightfully concerned about what happens to their children at school. How can school counselors respect those wishes and yet still serve adolescent students who want to discuss family matters with them without parental knowledge? What plans can high school counselors develop when they have a teenager in their office asking for and needing advice and information about behaviors about which their parents would be disapproving? What happens if school counselors refuse to offer counseling that parents would dislike and refer all students to resources outside of school? Is that a wise choice?

The second one is,
School counselors are now being held legally liable for their actions, especially in regard to students who are dangerous to themselves or others, but also when they fail to advise students properly about educational matters. At the same time, school systems give counselors huge student caseloads that frequently make it impossible for them to do their jobs in the way they would like. What practical steps can school counselors take to meet their legal and ethical responsibilities to students in light of these caseloads?
