Answer to Question 1

Primary socialization involves the individual learning the norms and values of a society, whereas anticipatory socialization involves the individual preparing for specific roles that he or she might assume in the future.

Answer to Question 2

The opinions of peers are not based on love or duty (as those of parents might be), so peers function to give us an accurate view of how we appear to others.
