Level Seven — The Need to Develop and Pursue Personal Goals
When our children attain the need to develop and pursue their own meaningful goals, they are on their way to independence. We all reach this stage at different times in our lives — if we reach it at all. Some people never do. Unfortunately, it’s often a daily effort just to satisfy more basic levels of need.
If basic levels of need are never met, it is very difficult to progress to higher needs.
Parents who have helped their children reach the seventh level — independence — have good reason to be proud.
