An example of "rites of passage".

Rites of passage implies those rites and rituals that stamp imperative transitional periods in a man's life, for example, birth, pubescence, marriage, having kids, and demise. Rites of passage for the most part include custom exercises and lessons intended to strip people of their unique parts and set them up for new parts.
