Emotional Maturity in Adolescence: A Preparation for Stability in Vocational Life

The guidance of youth to greater maturity in vocational life is becoming more vitally important, as the breakdown of morals in individuals and society imperils his environmental background, and brings him face to face with disruptive influences which endanger proper development to emotional stability. Christian education cooperates with divine grace in forming the true and perfect man of character, who thinks, judges, and acts constantly and consistently in accordance with right reason, who follows the teachings and example of Christ, and who, in thus acting, proves himself to be a person of maturity. Failure to attain these ends endangers the proper adjustment to, and the possible perpetuation of future effective vocational life for the immature individual. Such failure may also retard the complete emotional and volitional development of those under that immature person’s care, or it may he the cause of deviating tendencies in those with whom he lives and works.
