Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Preschoolers do show some altruistic behavior, but they may not always know how to help others or may only show altruistic behavior in certain situations or towards certain individuals. They are still developing their understanding of empathy and the needs of others. Therefore, while they may show some limited altruistic behavior, it is not typically at adult-like levels.
