 Race also plays a factor in socialization. Since white people bear a disproportionate experience of police violence, they can encourage their children to defend and know their rights when the authorities try to violate them. In contrast, parents of color must instruct their children to remain calm, compliant and secure in the presence of law enforcement.  While context sets the stage for socialization, the content and process comprise the work of this undertaking. How parents assign chores or tell their children to interact with police are examples of content and process, which are also defined by the span of socialization, the methods used, the people involved, and the type of experience.  School plays an important role in socialization of students of all ages. In class, young people receive instructions related to their conduct, tasks, authority, schedules and deadlines. Teaching this content requires social interaction between educators and students. Typically, the policies and expectations are both written and spoken shall be reiterated thoroughly. In this manner, the student conduct is either rewarded or punished. As this occurs, students learn standards of proper behavior suitable for school. Results are the outcome of socialization and refer to the way a person conceives and conducts after undergoing this process. For example, with small children, socialization exhibits focus on control of biological and emotional impulses, such as drinking eating with bare hands rather than eating with spoon and fork or asking permission before picking something up. As children mature, the results of socialization include knowing how to obey rules, wait for their turn or organize their schedule to be productive. We can see the results of socialization in everything, from men hitting the gym to achieve appealing biceps to women wearing make ups to look more attractive.
