The main character, Gil Buckman, is a prime example of what characterizes Erik Erikson’s stage of generativity versus stagnation in middle-aged adults. This seventh stage characterizes generativity as an adult’s desire to leave behind legacies of themselves to the next generation. On the other hand, stagnation occurs when adults sense they have done little to nothing for the next generation (Santrock, 2012, p. 322).

My older siblings were able to overcome their obstacles in the past unlike my two youngest siblings and myself. A few years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD (Attention-Deficit Hyper-Active Disorder). My youngest sister, who is now nine, was diagnosed with Epilepsy, and my youngest brother who has just turned seven, was diagnosed with Autism.

My eight year-old nephew has the developmental disorder and its process and treatment intrigue me for his benefit. Being an educator, I see many students with developmental disorders fall through the cracks, even with provided services. My nephew is continually misunderstood, placed on the “back burner”, brushed aside, and labeled in his school environment. Many of his teachers complain about his
