I like developmental psychology because I wanted to learn how I should be responsible for the child. example, that time I was ever in the claws of an autistic child, I was very surprised spontaneous. in my mind at that time why she was clawing at me when I did not know her? and finally I learned from her mother, her autistic child who is not unusual to see the thighs of a woman, yes I think it's interesting because at that time I was wearing short pants. from there I thought, maybe there are many differences between children with autism. I made my own personal example because it is a very interesting example.
