In Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, the need for love and esteem is referred to as emotional dependency. There are five levels of emotional dependency, all necessary for children to grow into happy individuals. These levels are safety, esteem, love and belonging and:
  1. External fulfillment
  2. Emotional reciprocity
  3. Psychological dependence
  4. Pyschological growth
Explanation
Answer: D - The five levels of emotional dependency are: safety, esteem, love and belonging and psychologilcal growth. All five needs have to be met consistently, or an individual will suffer from a lack of fulfillment. Without love and esteem, children will not grow emotionally. Without safety, they must focus on their environment rather than be free to focus on their growth.
