Children, with the experience of poverty, institutionalized shame and hiding their feelings, will never achieve an organized set that can make a unit consisting of their personality and identity, which can be the origin of their crisis in the future.In this research,the stages of growth were studied in three stories and the following results were obtained: The first stage is the lack of basic trust in the child, the result of living in societies with defective infrastructures, behavioral challenges and identity crisis. The second stage is the child's lack of familiarity with himself in the form of his reflection in the game due to the absence of his father and mother's employment and economic problems. The third stage, modeling and striving towards libido to find the professional and sexual identity of teenagers in traditional societies, despite the limitations of the emergence of "multiple selves", is unable.
