Identify and briefly describe stages leading to firesetting in children.
What will be an ideal response?
Fire interest can be a normal stage of childhood development where children younger than three set fires. Fireplay occurs between the ages of five and nine. The child experiments with how a fire starts and what it can do but won’t understand the consequences of setting the fire. Firesetting is an abnormal fascination with fire and the setting of fires despite knowing the dangers of fire. Persistent firesetting is associated with psychological problems.
