Developmental theories focus on the stage of development of each family member, usually based on age or growth stage. These theories have developmental tasks that should be accomplished at each stage of development to successfully progress and master the next stage. These stages begin at birth and continue through old age. Thus, each child will have different developmental tasks based on his or her age and stage of development; because tasks are different, so are each child's needs.
