Personal experiences play an important role in moral development from childhood through adulthood. Moral development involves progressing through stages of moral reasoning as one's cognitive abilities and experiences change. Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development outlines six stages across three levels - pre-conventional, conventional, and post-conventional - where individuals' understanding of morality becomes less concrete and more principled over time based on their interactions with the social world.

3. Moral Development
◎ Moral development is a crucial a part of the
socialization method. Ethical development
prevents individuals from engaged
on unrestrained urges, instead
considering what's right for society
and smart for others.
The ethical development is employed to
inform those who what's right
and what's wrong in their life.

Morals Experience
◎ Moral expertise encompasses a
personality's sense that values that he or she
deems vital are being completed in existence.
This includes a personality's interpretations
of a lived encounter, or a group of lived
encounters, that fall on spectrums of right-
wrong, good-bad or just-unjust.

Developing the morals
◎ Moral development focuses on the
emergence, change, and understanding
of morality from infancy through
adulthood. Morality develops across a
lifetime and is influenced by an individual's
experiences and their behavior when faced
with moral issues through different periods
physical and cognitive development.
