Reason:- According to Kohlberg theory of moral development, children in primary schools follow obedience and punishment orientation. Children individuals stick to rules to avoid being punished by adults. If a child is punished, it means he /she must have done something wrong. This stage is found at the elementary school level. Apart from this children also follow individualism and exchange where they learn that everyone has different views and everyone is free to pursue his or her own interests.
