Abstract: All cultures have various rituals that serve the same function, even though the processes may differ. Rituals accompany people through the transitional phases of everyday life and help them cope with daily demands. Often, rituals go unnoticed. Many people even believe that they do not need rituals, considering them unnecessary and outdated, despite the fact that these rituals have quietly accompanied them for a long time. However, this opinion changes, especially when children come into the picture, as they insist on cherished habits like bedtime stories, Easter celebrations, etc., and insist that they be carried out. Rituals can provide stability in an ever-changing society.
