skills and abilities that they feel confident such as feeding or saying
“No” when they want to do something on their own.

In this stage of independence, a child will develop skills to become
more independent like going to the toilet independently. Additionally,
through studying and engaging in new activities, they learn to rely less
on their parents and make decisions based on their likes and dislikes.

their interests or career. However, for some, this stage is where they work longer as they are now the main provider or carer for their elderly parents and family.

their identity (having more control of themselves and making decisions about
