Daphne, age 6, is the only child of a wealthy family. Her parents both have jobs that require long hours. Their philosophy is that Daphne is a child and should not have to work, other than to keep pace with her class at the private school she attends.

Daphne has shown an interest in helping the housekeeper cook, but the housekeeper discourages this and suggests she go play.

None of these factors is likely to negatively affect the development of Daphne's prosocial behavior because she is too young to cultivate it. C.
