Explanation:

Erik Erikson develop a theory about our psychosocial development, in which he stated that we go through different crisis along our lifespan. These crisis have the characteristic to have two opposite "values" and that we, as individuals, tend to resolve the crisis by adjusting ourselves more to one of the values.  It is important to notice that Erikson crisis go through different stages.

One of the stages in this theory is call "industry vs. inferiority" and it takes place between the age of 6 and 12 years approximately.

At this stage the child’s peer group will gain greater significance and will become a major source of the child’s self-esteem. The child now feels the need to win approval by demonstrating specific competencies that are valued by society and begin to develop a sense of pride in their accomplishments (industriousness).

Children feel specially industrious when they are encouraged and reinforced for their initiative and feel confident in their ability to achieve goals.

If they are not encouraged or this initiative is not reinforced they might develop a sense of inferiority.

In this example, Francisco, a fifth-grader (and probably 11 years old) shows industriousness when a) designs a robot and enters a competition with it

Since this is the only option that has to do with demonstrating specific competencies that are valued by society and thus, this feels like an accomplishment, this is the correct answer.

well it depends i think people around the world are coming around to gay marriage. but if you are talking abortion then wow, so much to talk about. such as men thinking they have the right to choose if women can, the fact there are health concerns if the women can't get one, and many more arguments to discuss. so i would definitely say abortion would be a much more interesting topic.
