Answer to Question 1

Co-regulation: the child and parent both contribute to the regulation of the childs behavior.
For example, the parent sets general rules, such as homework must be completed before bedtime, and the child makes a plan for the day that includes homework plus other things the child wants to do.
Gatekeeping: the child wants to engage in an activity, such as learning a musical instrument, and the parent makes it possible, financially, and in terms of transportation and other support, for the child to get lessons.

Answer to Question 2

Distributive justice refers to moral views about how to best distribute earnings or winnings (such as in a game).
In middle childhood, children initially distribute earnings equally to all participants without regard to effort, but toward the end of middle childhood they believe in distributing equal amounts only if people exerted equal effort or provided equal help.
They also begin to believe that unfortunate or poor children should receive some of the earnings from each of the more advantages people.
Just and unjust laws states that children who were told about a hypothetical country and asked if its laws were fair were able to discriminate between good and bad laws on the basic of whether the laws were socially beneficial, whether they respected peoples rights, and whether they did no harm to people.
