When school lunch is delayed for an hour due to an unexpected power outage in the cafeteria, 14-year-old Henrietta is asked to share her box of home-baked cookies with her classmates. Given what developmental researchers have learned about how distributive justice and children's sense of fairness change with age, we would expect Henrietta to:
a. Share the cookies equally among her classmates
b. Hide about a third of the cookies for herself and hand out the rest
c. Share the cookies equally, but give any extra cookies to classmates whose families don't have much money
d. Refuse to share any of the cookies, arguing that she baked them herself and so has every right to keep them for herself
