Six chronological life stages  

-pre-stage(birth-2) (dependent on care giver)

Undifferentiated faith (react to the world if we can trust parents or not) -pre-school(2-5) (being to understand things with the guide of parents)  Intuition projective, can't tell diff between fantasy and reality (learning  family's perspective, taboos, idea of death)

-school age(6-11yrs) (learning and asking literal questions) mythic  literal (don't understand abstract)

-teenagers(11-19) (self and peer guidance, repeated mistake making)  group loyalist (thinking beyond their parents, accepting peers, hard to  move beyond loyalist stage)

-young adult (learning from mistakes, forming own values)  Individualative reflective, the critic

-mid-life (your learning from your children)

What does the torah say about god?

-end-life (finding truth before you dye)
