Answer:

C. early adolescence

Step-by-step explanation:

Puberty

Adolescence is the period of transition between childhood and adulthood. Children who are entering adolescence are going through many changes (physical, intellectual, personality, and social developmental). Adolescence begins at puberty, which now occurs earlier, on average, than in the past.

I believe the answer is: C. early adolescence

Before entering early adolescence, the way children think would 100% be determined by their parent. During early adolescence, they started to crave the attention of other people from peers around their age and develop an abstract concept of how their behaviour could affect other people around them.
