Children in late childhood are more likely than children in early childhood to compare themselves with their peers, this occurs around the age of five and eight, due to the greater development of friendships and socialization.
The construction of self-knowledge in childhood is impacted by the socialization process that children learn from their parents and institutions where they live, such as school.
The social group of peers corresponds to a group with similar characteristics, such as age, interests and social status, so in late childhood the physical and emotional attributes are more perceived and generate comparison.
Therefore, the comparison with peers starts at the end of childhood, and it is a normal behavior, as there is greater learning about friendship, identification and social perspective on their actions.
