Social Self & Socialisation

According to the website 'The Social Self - Charles Cooley 2010' http://www.cf.ac.uk/socsi/undergraduate/introsoc/social3.html  it reads "self is simply any idea, or system of ideas, drawn from the communicative life, that the mind cherishes as its own. Self-feeling has its chief scope within the general life, not outside of it; the special endeavor or tendency of which it is the emotional aspect finds its principal field of exercise in a world of personal forces, reflected in the mind by a world of personal impressions" 

Socialisation is something many people mistaken as a form a genetics. This is because it is a process that begins at birth till adulthood, taught by your parents that has been lead down from your grandparents and has continued on from relatives. Socialisation correlates to almost every social and personal identity, for example the moral, cultural, belief, ethics are all a process of socialisation. My socialisation have been influenced by my parents, my school, peers, media and every encounters I've ever had with anyone in my life.
