    Moral development, based on Kohlberg’s theory, states that children undergo levels and stages of morals through the years of growing up; mainly in childhood. The theory says that they’re three levels — pre-conventional, conventional, and postconventional morality. Within those three levels, they’re two stages in each level: thus, having six stages in total. The stages themselves describe a child's behavior and their thinking. But, not every child goes through the same levels and stages at the same time —each one is different — neither go through them in order nor all the stages side by side.…

    Asami is one of the most intelligent characters in the city by displaying engineering prowess, ingenuity, business savviness, and a myriad of skills that allow her to stand on equal ground with the rest of the cast despite lacking the ability to bend one of the four elements. In addition to this Asami is also the daughter to the benefactor and second-in-command to the first season’s main antagonist, Amon. In Lindsey Averall’s paper she references Lawrence Kohlberg and his philosophy on moral development. This philosophy states that there are two major points of moral development divided into the preconventional stage and the postconventional stage. The preconventional stage is where “our most important “moral consideration” is pleasing authority figures like our parents” (166) while postconventional is “the mature adult who is guided by universal, abstract principle of just behavior” (166).…

    Similarly, both theorists’ levels have progression, and focus on only one gender. Kohlberg focused on how individuals make moral judgments based on emphasis on value rather than fact, the effect on a person or persons, and a requirement that action be taken (as cited in Patton et al., 2016). Kohlberg’s stages of moral development consist of three levels and six stages. Stages progress in a hierarchy from lower order to higher order of moral thinking where universal justice is the goal and autonomy is prized (as cited in Patton et al., 2016). According to Kohlberg (1976), in the preconventional level, individuals have not come to understand societal rules, there are two stages.…
