Psychosocial Development Stages
Stage 1: Trust vs. Mistrust
- The first stage occurs in infancy, where the child is dependent on caregivers for survival.

- Successful development of trust results in feelings of safety and security.
Stage 2: Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt
- The second stage occurs in early childhood, where children gain independence and make simple decisions.
- Allowing children to make choices and gain control helps develop a sense of autonomy.
