(5 pts) IF YOU ANSWER THIS ESSAY, YOU MUST ANSWER THE OTHER SHORTER ESSAY AND LEAVE THE LONGER ESSAY ABOVE BLANK How we define who is a friend changes as we develop and mature cognitively, yet by adulthood we may use all of these perspectives to understand friendship. First, write a sample statement or quote that people might say at each of the five developmental stages when asked who or what is a friend. Second, explain how each statement illustrates the underlying cognitive themes and clearly label the corresponding stage. Third, identify and explain which friendship attribute(s) is inherent in each statement/quote.   [HINT: Revisit the slides on the defining attributes of friendship and on Selman’s stages of defining/understanding friendship.]
