Self-control emerges in infancy and gradually improves during the preschool years. Describe the changes in self-control between the ages of 1 and 3

What will be an ideal response?

A good answer will include the following key points:
- At 1 year of age, infants become aware that people impose demands on them and they must react accordingly.
- At 2 years of age, toddlers have internalized some of the controls imposed by others and are capable of some self-control in their parents' absence.
- At 3 years of age, children become capable of self-regulation; they can devise ways to control their own behavior.
