Initiative Versus Guilt

This term refers to the third stage of Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development, occurring roughly between the ages of three and five, during which children assert themselves more frequently and begin to plan activities, make up games, and initiate activities with others. If this initiative is discouraged, the child begins to feel guilty about their desires and dreams.
