GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Spanish term or phrase: convocará (in this context)
English translation:will stay with them (until adulthood)

Marketing - General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters / bringing children up and their education
Spanish term or phrase: convocará (in this context)
Las imágenes que se me viene  a la mente están relacionadas con la convivencia familiar, filial, escolar, etc.

3.- lo que hay en juego cuando hablamos de este tema, es un todo, tanto desarrollo psicológico,  escolar, familiar, es integral con su entorno que convocará hasta su edad adulta

I do not understand what "convocará hasta su edad adulta" means. Could it be, "that they will remember until they are adults" perhaps?

Thank you for any help

will stay with them (until adulthood)
Explanation:
Might as well throw my hat into the ring, as "convocar" doesn't seem the best option in the original…
I was going to post "accompany them"... But versions with "stay/remain" are more frequent.

will have consequences on adulthood


Explanation:
I believe the verb "convocar" is not being used correctly here.
They probably mean "repercutir" or something along these lines.

que convocará hasta su edad adulta
that will endure into/until adulthood


Explanation:
I'm no expert at all in Mexican Spanish, so this is a suggestion based on intuition and the context rather than any linguistic flair

agree  neilmac: The original seems pretty poorly written… A bit stream of consciousness

  -> Well I just tried to apply a translator's jet stream...
agree  Robert Carter: Yes, I suppose the idea is "summon up", but that'd be too clumsy in English. This is fine. Or Neil's variation on this, but you were first.

will evoke memories throughout adulthood


Explanation:
I'd imagine 'evocar' may be the word the author was thinking of.

Another option might be 'will bring memories to the fore, throughout adulthood.'
