In the process of socialization, the ethical beliefs are internalized and provide the foundation for moral development. Moral concepts start developing in a child from an early age. The first stage of morality is based on consequences, that is, before the age of about seven, the child tends to view or categorize acts which yield positive outcomes as “good” and those which yield negative outcomes as “bad”. This pattern is called objective moral orientation. After the age of seven years, we focus our attention on the intentions behind various actions. This is called subjective moral orientation and generally it develops when a child is around ten years old
