A young child awakes one morning and decides to pick out her own
clothing. She is excited at the prospect of doing this independently
without her mother's help. She chooses her favorite plaid pants, one red
sock, one purple sock and a turtleneck sweater (even though it is
August). When she proudly comes downstairs to show her mother, her
mother scowls at her. Her mother insists that they go back upstairs
immediately so that the mother can pick out a more suitable outfit. In
which of Erickson's stages might the young child be?
