siblings and pets, etc. Children will demonstrate their psychosocial growth by actively
taking part in the activities suggested and assigned by the parents, and eventually by
offering to help when and where they see the need. Children will also show psychosocial maturity by initiating their assigned duties, such as chores and
homework, without needing to be reminded.
