What are statuses and roles?

Statuses and roles are two distinct things that are inherent to every society. Statuses are the different position in which people may found themselves, as for example being a parent is a status. A role is a series of behaviour that is associated with that status (parents should love their children no matter what) that could be either formal or informal.

Where do these statuses/roles come from?

Statuses and roles come from society. We tend to assign statuses to people in order to understand what they should do, and this helps us all understand the society in which we leave in a better way because we know what to expect. Is someone tells that he/she is a parent, most of the people would immediately know a series of behaviour that could be associated with that status and so would be able to understand the person in a better way.  

What are the good and bad to them?

Statuses and roles are good because they give us immediate understanding over a sometimes very complex society, and moreover it helps define what we expect of ourselves when we are invested of a certain status. At the same time, statuses and roles are bad because they confine us to that specific status and role, where in reality we are creature much more complex than our statuses and roles. Moreover, sometimes those could bring conflicts and discrimination.

How do statuses and roles affect the lives of individual members of society?

Statuses and roles affect the lives of individual members of society in various way. For instance, the perception of the expectations related to a role could put pressure on an individual, like female people who feel pressure to have a child after a certain age, because our role in society has the expectation of producing a baby.
