B

C
“They see rules as being the same for everyone, and they think it is important and valuable to do what one is ‘supposed’ to do.” ( Paragraph 12)
D
“Once a person begins to think in a Stage 5 way about what benefits the community as a whole, they will almost never go back to a Stage 2 level of looking out for themselves first.” ( Paragraph 16)

D

“Once a person begins to think in a Stage 5 way about what benefits the community as a whole, they will almost never go back to a Stage 2 level of looking out for themselves first.” ( Paragraph 16)

Explanation:

Option D best supports the idea that common good becomes more important to people as they age.

When a person begins to think in a Stage 5 way about what would benefit the community as a whole instead of himself alone, he would most probably not regress back to Stage 2 where his level of thinking was to look out primarily for himself.

Once a person has gotten to that advanced stage of thinking and acting for others instead of self, it is difficult to go back to thinking in a selfish way.
