This assignment explores Erikson's psycho-social development stages in infancy, specifically focusing on the first stage: 'Trust vs. Mistrust'. The document examines how this stage is crucial for a child's social and emotional development, and highlights the importance of caregivers providing a sense of security and responsiveness to their child's needs. Additionally, it discusses how parents can promote healthy language and thinking skills in their infant through interactions, imagination, and pretend play. The findings suggest that gradual care and attention from parents are essential for a child's growth and development throughout infancy.
