Answer 1

Answer: C.) Dawid and Tuila are demonstrating generativity

Explanation: When individuals, caregivers, parents, leaders and other involved persons show concern, passion and desire to support, guide and make positive contribution towards the development of younger children and people within the society. Generativity negates greed, self-centredness and those who only really cares about themselves. In the context above, Dawid and Tulia both exhibited generativity in their strive to ensure that their children get the best of guidance and care. Despite having reduction in sleep time and income, they are still happy.
