Trust vs Mistrust
When my baby brother was 1 years old, we would take him to a babysitter. He wasn't getting the same necessities from his babysitter that my mom gave him & began to not trust her. He would cry when we dropped him off & didn't like being there. In this stage, children need to learn to trust adults. This takes place when adults provide them when the needed necessities like being fed. When this does not happen, kids can develop anxiety, fear, and mistrust -

Autonomy vs Shame
When my brother was 3, we were going to a wedding and he wanted to wear an outfit that wasn't for the occasion. In this stage, toddlers start to realize that they too can make decisions.

industry vs inferiority
