Document Summary
Kids gets into trouble and parents correct them. Parents assert power over their children most of the time. For instance, sometimes it can be physical assertion, such as, picking the child when it is small from a wrong situation and placing them in the right one. Picking up can only work when the children around 3 to 4 years of age. Another example, taking away possessions, such as, toys. Children showcase more inclination towards aggressive behaviors. In turn is linked to lower levels of moral reasoning. Childe are unlikely to listen to parents while prohibition is taking place: love withdrawal. Take away affection from the child when it is most needed. For instance, when the child committed a mistake, parents will not talk to the child; parents want the child to feel the guilt to rectify their mistake. In other words, parents will not encourage these behaviors and they will neglect them.
