I've replied about socialization:

I think establishing new social norms, influencing old ones, and
designing social norms for your communities is something we have to
help people learn, including young children. Full text of the comment:
The more borders open, communities mix and everybody travels, the
bigger is a need for social training for older people. When my husband
and I first came to the US as graduate students, our "English for
Teaching Assistants" course included what I consider "social
training." For example, we practiced standing at about a yard from the
person we talk with - not more like in Western Europe, not less like
in South America. Or, we practiced answering questions within 2-3
seconds, not up to one minute, as in China or Eastern Europe.
Also, autistic people may need more explicit learning in this area.
Most people who enter social media need socialization help learning
netiquette. For example, in the last couple of years, many 50+ people
joined FaceBook, and many 25- people started to leave it as the social
climate there changed so much.
People who enter a new profession, which more and more people need to
do repeatedly during their life, also have to learn, or create if the
profession is new, different social norms.
Changing social norms consciously is another big part of social
learning. It's something we have to teach kids more than we do now.
Community forming, social norm design and establishment, changing
existing social norms, and recognizing the non-malleable ones.
