Socialization refers tot eh ways in which individuals attempt to align their own thoughts, feelings and behavior to fit into society or groups- the process in wich individuals incorporate society into their senses of self. To interact with others we must learn the social rules. The norms of a society/culture which tell us those behaviours are acceptable and which are unacceptable. Children edeprived of human contact have limited intellectual capacities, have no or limited experience with love or human interaction, and do not grasp language. Sociologists believe that social reality is constructed by people every time they interact with others. Australian family dressed their child in unisex clothing and gave a unisex name and people were upset by this.
