Answer:

She is in stage one: obedience and punishment driven.

Step-by-step explanation:

This stage is presented especially in children and animals. In this stage, people only judge the direct consequences on an action. A child in a young age probably hasn't developed a sense of what's morally right or wrong according to moral conventions: he or she only focuses on external consequences, such as being punished.
