According to Erickson, as humans grow and develop they pass through 8 stages. One of the stages that humans goes through is Initiative vs. Guilt. This is a stage in early childhood in which a child (ages 3-5) focuses on learning social and cognitive skills: one of those skills would be sharing with classmates. During this stage a healthy, developing child learns to cooperate with others. If the child does not learn these ideas in this stage he/she will have trouble interacting with other children. The fourth grader who refuses to share demonstrates immobilized guilt and is hesitant to share.
