Question

"i would love to run across my mom's new white carpet after playing in the mud just to see what cool designs i could make. i won't though because i am afraid that she would get mad a me." these thoughts reflect the preconventional level of kohlberg's theory of moral development

Answer 1

I believe the answer is preconventional
During Kohlberg's preconventional level of development, we still haven't develop enough sense to develop which action is considered as 'right' and which action considered as 'wrong' , which make us unable to analyze whether our actions could cause negative impacts for other or not.
