  1. TASK ONE: ECOLOGICAL MAP OF AVATAR, EMMANUEL

  2. Hello everyone! My name is Emmanuel and I have recently turned 13, officially beginning my adolescent years. I was adopted into the family structure of same-sex parents (two mothers under the age of 24), all of us which come from an English speaking background. My current socioeconomic status is that of a high class family, beginning my first year of secondary education in the eastern suburbs.

  3. Since 1996, there have been 3 - 6 children under the age of 12 months placed for adoption each year alone in New South Wales, making me 1 of these children. (Aspin, L.J. 1994, p. 360). • According to the 2001 census, there are 19, 594 same-sex couples in Australia, double the number of people declaring such partnerships in 1996. Of these, 11% are raising children, like my parents. (Poole, M. 2005, p 80). • The 2001 census also identified that of all families, just under half of 1% were same-sex; of which 0.26% were gay couples, and 0.21% were lesbian couples, which is what my family falls under. (De Vaus, D. 2004, p 82).

  4. Families like mine are considerably more common amongst younger people, with the highest percentage occurring among couples in the 20-24 year old age group, where 1.1% identified as same-sex. (De Vaus, D. 2004, p 83). • According to the 2003 census, I am one of the 141, 700 children in the age group of 12-14 in which both my parents are employed. (ABS, Family characteristics, 2008). • I am considered to be 1 out of the 7, 671, 497 males in all of Australia who comes from an English only background. (ABS, Australia at a glance, 2008).

  5. Microsystem: the first layer in Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems theory. This layer is the immediate environment of the child, containing the structures with which the child has a direct contact to, thus, emphasising the connection and relationship the child has with their immediate surroundings.

  7. Mesosystem: the second layer in Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems theory. The mesosystem is the layer which acts as a connection or interaction between two microsystem environments. Take for example, the connection between Emmanuel’s family and religion and his school experiences and home experiences.

  9. Exosystem: the third layer in Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems theory. This layer is the environment which does not directly involve the child, being external to their experience, however, affects their behaviour nonetheless.

  10. Exosystem *Government/community *Mass Media *Parent’s workplace Mesosystem *Culture *Society Microsystem

  11. Macrosystem: the fourth layer in Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems theory. This layer broadly represents the ideologies, cultural values and expectations of the individual's culture, sub-culture and even their social class. The macrosystem also has a major influence throughout the interaction between the other systems.

  12. Macrosystem *Expectations *Societal views *Cultural values Exosystem Mesosystem Microsystem

  13. Chronosystem:the last layer in Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems theory. This layer emphasises time, symbolising changes in environments or persons over time.
