In which stage do people begin to consider the implications of their actions on their future lives?

  1. Late Adolescence

  2. Adulthood

  3. Early Adulthood

  4. Middle Adulthood

The correct answer is: Early Adulthood

Early Adulthood is the stage in which people begin to consider the implications of their actions on their future lives. During this stage, individuals are typically between the ages of 20 and 40 and are transitioning from adolescence to adulthood. They have more responsibilities and decision-making power, leading them to think about the long-term consequences of their actions. Late adolescence (option A) is still a time of exploration and discovery, while adulthood (option B) refers to a broader range of ages and does not specifically pertain to this important phase of development. Middle adulthood (option D) is more focused on maintaining career and family stability rather than considering the future implications of actions.
