Compare And Contrast Piaget And Kohlberg's Attachment Theory

The attachment theory is the stages which infants develop patterns of attachments with the caregiver, namely the mother. The extensive study allowed researchers to observe what is the genuine reaction and behaviour of the infant or child when the carer is absent. When I compare the attachment theory with the developmental theories taught in class there are three theories (Erikson, Piaget, and Kohlberg) which begins the studies at the early childhood.

Kohlberg’s work is similar to Piaget’s earlier work. Whereas, Piaget analysed the cognitive/ moral development. Kohlberg developed the idea that moral reasoning, has six identifiable developmental stages. He believes most young children are categorized in the “Pre-conventional morality”. For children
When people develop cognitively they begin to think things at a deeper level and as a result they are able to suitable ethical decisions. Hence, they are maturing and making better decision.

In my reading of Bible, I gained the insight of my rebellious nature and I needed Christ Jesus to make me whole.
