My opinion
While reading for this week's assignment, i was impressed the contents of "the importance of socialization" in the "Elements of socialization".
Other contents give me theoretical feelings, but importance of socialization gives me familiar feeling more than other informations.
In fact the movie about a boy who did not receive socialization was released in south korea.
With this background knowledge and support gained through wikibooks, i learned that socialization is very important in our lives and allows individuals to be members of society.

Question
This week's reading seems to be less than the usual amount. I want to study more about kind of socialization, organization, features, etc.
