Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that children as young as two years old can display visible signs of distress when they violate some standard of behavior, indicating the development of a sense of right and wrong at an early age. While newborns may also display discomfort or distress, it is not necessarily linked to a sense of violating a behavioral standard. Four- and six-year-olds have already been shown to have a well-developed sense of morality, so the age of two is the most appropriate answer.
