Adult intervention

Here we see a major dispute between two three year old girls, requiring an adult to intervene. The girls do have a good repertoire of behaviours to sort out conflicts as seen in the chapter ‘toy fight’ but this chapter shows how highly charged emotions in children can take over.

Two three and four year old boys have a dispute that doesn’t end well, a shy boy in ends up in tears. This chapter illustrates the consequences of not having the skills to be able to try and deal with social upsets.
