, friendship - Answer- peer interactions often involve parallel play as toddlers. Friends are referred to based
on proximity, next door neighbor, schoolmate etc. Later on based on trust and commitment. Bigelow and
Selmen believe these changes are linked to advances in cognitive development
Momentary physical interaction - Answer- A friend is someone you are playing with at this point in time.
Selman (1980) notes that this is typical of children between the ages of three and six. These early
friendships are based more on circumstances (for example, a neighbor) than on genuine similarities.
One-way assistance - Answer- A friend is someone who does nice things for you, such as saving you a seat
on the school bus or sharing a toy. However, children in this stage do not always think about what they are
contributing to the relationships. Nonetheless, having a friend is important, and children will sometimes put
up with a not-so-nice friend just to have a friend. Children as young as five and as old as nine may be in this
stage.
Fair-weather cooperation - Answer- Children are very concerned with fairness and reciprocity, and thus, a
friend is someone who returns a favor. In this stage, if a child does something nice for a friend, there is an
expectation that the friend will do something nice for them at the first available opportunity. When this fails
to happen, a child may break off the friendship. Selman found that some children as young as 7 and as old
as 12 are in this stage.
Intimate and mutual sharing - Answer- Typically between the ages of 8 and 15, a friend is someone to
whom you can tell things you would tell no one else. Children and teens in this stage no longer "keep score"
and do things for a friend because they genuinely care for the person. If a friendship dissolves in this stage,
it is usually due to a violation of trust. However, children in this stage do expect their friends to share
similar interests and viewpoints and may take it as a betrayal if a friend likes someone that they do not.
Autonomous interdependence - Answer- A friend is someone who accepts you and whom you accept as
they are. In this stage, children, teens, and adults accept and even appreciate differences between
themselves and their friends. They are also not as possessive, so they are less likely to feel threatened if
their friends have other relationships or interests. Children are typically 12 or older in this stage.
adolescence - Answer- the transitional phase of growth and development between childhood and adulthood
