Ramesh always in search of Idol, he always criticises traditions, then he belongs to ..................... stage of development.
Adolescent
Adolescence (roughly 12-19 years) is the stage of storm and stress described by Stanley Hall. A central task of this stage is forming one's own identity (Erikson: identity versus role confusion).
While searching for identity, the adolescent looks for an ideal or idol (hero-worship of film stars, sportspersons, leaders) and starts questioning and criticising established customs and traditions, because abstract thinking (Piaget's formal operations) now allows him to judge rules critically.
Pre-childhood and post-childhood children largely accept the norms given by parents and teachers, while an adult has usually settled identity and values, so idol-seeking along with revolt against tradition does not describe them.
Hence, Ramesh belongs to the Adolescent stage of development.
