Answer:

  • From birth to adulthood, childhood is referred to as the age of a minority. Depending on the setting and objective, different people have different definitions of maturity.
  • For instance, in the US, if you are 18 years old, you are considered an adult for military service but a minor for alcohol purchases.
  • According to biology, childhood is the period a human organism goes through between birth and adolescence. The concept of Infancy refers to the first year of life, often known as infancy.
  • Early childhood (ages one to five), middle childhood (ages six to ten), and pre-adolescence comprise the years that remain before adolescence (11-12 years).

Explanation:

  • The period of time from birth through puberty is known as childhood. Adolescence may be included, but it still comes before adulthood.
  • The preoperational stage and the concrete operational stage are the two phases of childhood, in accordance with Piaget's theory of cognitive development.
  • Early childhood (preschool age), middle childhood (school age), and adolescence are the developmental phases of childhood that are separated out in developmental psychology (puberty to legal adulthood).
  • A person's attitude development may be influenced by a variety of formative circumstances.
  • The 17th and 18th centuries saw the development of the idea of childhood, mainly because of John Locke's educational ideals and the rise of writings for and about kids.
  • Children were frequently thought of as incomplete replicas of grownups up until this moment.
