Bronfenbrenner's ecological theory is not only perfect, but it has applications in many disciplines. It is one of the best explanations that exist about how different social groups influence a person's life (Bronfenbrenner, 1992). Bronfenbrenner is the creator of this theory, remarked that the lifestyle of children changed depending on the environment in which they grew up. This theory is a reflection of my childhood (Bronfenbrenner, & Morris, 1998). How environment influences my personality in the childhood. The five systems are closely interconnected to my childhood. Family is one the most important source in developing my personality. Thus, the influence of one of these systems on the development of a child depends on its relations with others.
In my childhood, I observed that I was a friendly, attentive child causes positive and calm reactions from parents. I believe that family as a medium is a very dynamic education. The situation in the family influences how the school, yard and kindergarten will affect my childhood. My school performance also depends on my family’s environment. My family always motivated to make new friends and have interaction with them. My parents used to take interest in my friends and their family.
I believe the best style is the permissive style. My parents always support me in my decisions. They are very open and broad minded. Permissive style is peculiar to parents who do not recognize traditional conceptions of education and pursue the free development of children, which accentuate the child's choice; on the freedom, on the impulsiveness of the child, they punish little, being afraid that in this way they do not restrict the childish freedom (Alizadeh, Talib, Abdullah, & Mansor, 2011). Some believe it has many disadvantages such as it is considered too early that the child is mature to be independent (Bednar, & Fisher, 2003). The result is, most often, individualism and selfishness; this happens very often in case of illness or death of the parents.
