Preconventional morality

Explanation:

According to Kohlberg, there are three stages of moral development, each with two phases. These three stages are preconventional morality, conventional morality, and postconventional morality.

Preconventional Morality

As the first stage in moral development, preconventional morality is about the approach to right and wrong taken by children. Children often make moral decisions based on how it will impact them. When they make good decisions, or don't make bad decisions, it is lnot really about principles or values but more about some sort of reinforcement they receive. Like Avian she is making the decision to be good based on the fact that she doesnt want to be punished.
