As noted in your textbook in Ch 08 ( Kuther, T. (2017). Lifespan development -1st edition), young children's often engage in rough-and-tumble play. Sometimes during this play, children fall down and blame another child, or children get angry with others and engage in instrumental aggression. Consider the following scenario:
Randy, Jeremy, Zane, and Joe often meet at the park on the weekend with their mothers. The boys love to be pushed in the swings, climb on the equipment, and play pirates on a big toy boat. However, sometimes Jeremy tries to take toys from the others, and often hits them when they don't want to share. others.
Sometimes, Jeremey says he is a Power Ranger and is "powering up" and then kicks the other kids. Zane's mom thinks the mothers should get involved and teach the children how to play nicely; however, Jeremy's mom says that this is what kids do.
NO PLAGIARISM!!!!!
