Running head: [SHORTENED TITLE UP TO 50 CHARACTERS] 1 Sociological Imagination Brittany Ingram Grantham University

[SHORTENED TITLE UP TO 50 CHARACTERS] 2 A personal experience for me is when I had my first child. I was a young mom at the age of 20 with a wonderful husband. From an outsider view of this experience would be my father. At the beginning of my pregnancy my father was disappointed, he knew I had a whole life ahead of me that would be put on hold with this child, but he never made me feel like a failure. Once my son was born, my fathers’ opinions and feelings changed drastically. Now my children are best friends with their grandpa. The experience was influenced by society because woman normally wait till marriage to have a child, but as for my I was unmarried when I had both my kids. Today there are more than one-in-four parents having a child while being unmarried. This rate is rising more and more at a 7% increase compared to half a century ago. There are three main social perspectives, structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. Structural functionalism is the way each part of society functions together to contribute to the whole. Conflict Theory is the way inequalities contribute to social differences and perpetuate differences in power. And symbolic interactionism is a one-on-one interaction and communication. For this experience the social perspective is symbolic interactionism. There was this interaction between my father and I as a one-on-one communication.
