![Page 12: Culture and Socialization. “we all begin with the natural equipment to live a thousand kinds of lives but end having lived only one.” Clifford Gertz.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649eb75503460f94bc16b4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Weisner (2002) “Parents and children are engaged in
activities, which in turn are loosely organized into a daily routine of life, and in turn, into a ‘cultural career’—a way of life that engages the self, identity, and our sense of personhood and meaning”
![Page 13: Culture and Socialization. “we all begin with the natural equipment to live a thousand kinds of lives but end having lived only one.” Clifford Gertz.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062802/56649eb75503460f94bc16b4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
