Need more cog skill and more experience with world. Need reinforcement and correction from caregivers to develop these emotions. By age 3, pride and shame: must know success/failure, and also task difficulty. Must have internalized rules (not just following when being watched ) , it has to be something that is actually imp to them. Guilt develops last (age 9): must understand personal responsibility.
