Imagine you are a fifth-grade teacher. The parents of your students want you to include moral issues in your classroom curriculum.

b. This is a good idea because postconventional reasoning will promote abstract thought.
c. Research studies indicate that most students have already reached the postconventional level by fifth grade.
d. Postconventional reasoning is an unrealistic goal for fifth graders.
