As children move through adolescence, what is one possible reason the text gives for why they do not increase their prosocial behavior?
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER: Adults sometimes train children to inhibit their natural prosocial impulses, such as telling them it is the teacher’s job to take care of distressed classmates, not theirs; children view many antisocial models both live in their daily life and in the media; children increase in their ability to self-regulate so that they do not impulsively respond to others’ distress; children become more aware of the costs of prosocial behavior and learn to protect their self-interests better
