Erikson's 2nd stage of psychological development describes a time when a child either starts becoming independent and doing things themselves or doubts themselves. For example, Eve chooses her own clothes for school.
In Erikson's 5th stage of development, teenagers start to mature into adulthood as physical and hormonal changes happen. In this stage, they have a lot of confusing feelings about their identity as teens transitioning into adults. For example, here Eve is having trouble figuring out who she is.
The 6th stage focuses on forming intimate, loving relationships with other people. Developing strong relationships isn't just for romantic but also for forming close, long-lasting friendships. Struggling in this stage can result in feeling alone and isolated. Here, we can see that Eve formed a strong relationship which lead to marriage.
