Toddlerhood is the age where children begin to assert their independence and want to do things for themselves. The conflict in this stage is between autonomy (independence) and shame/doubt (feeling inadequate). When parents provide guidance and allow reasonable choices, they promote the development of autonomy in their child and help them achieve a sense of control over their actions and environment. This resolution leads to a sense of confidence and self-assurance in the child.
