Piaget believed that children think in two distinct ways about morality, namely heteronomous and autonomous. Heteronomous morality is characteristic of children aged 4 to 7 years, where they believe in rules being set externally and that consequences determine the rightness or wrongness of an action. Autonomous morality, on the other hand, is characteristic of children aged 10 and above, where they realize that moral rules are social agreements that can be changed and also understand that punishment does not always equate with wrongdoing.
