Answer to Question 1

Cognitive theories focus on how children think and how they understand their world.
The focus of childhood development is not centered on personality development, but rather focuses on children's thinking and reasoning. For instance, a 4 -year-old will comprehend and reason about his parent's divorce differently than his 10-year-old brother; a 10-year-old will comprehend and reason about his parent's divorce differently than his 15-year-old sister.
