Assignment Task:

Drawing upon Kohlberg's theory of stages of moral development, Gilligan's theory of caring, and Erikson's psychosocial stages theory, discuss reasons why an adolescent might turn to suicide.
Using one of these theories, suggest how to help a teen who has been a victim of bullying.
