essay

For this assignment you will write an essay that will explore your projections of what your life will be like when you reach middle adulthood. This essay should be double-spaced and approximately two pages in length. Evaluate the information you have attained during Module 8 about middle adulthood, to include physical, cognitive, sensory, emotional and social changes that take place during this period in lifespan development.

Based on that information, please provide a realistic projection of what your life will be like when you reach middle adulthood in relation to the following:

• Physical characteristics and changes
• Health
• Personality
• Hobbies
• Your employment
• Your social and civic responsibilities
• Your marital status and family composition
