Q

Describe separation anxiety in young childhood vs late childhood and ados

A
  • Younger children: Being hospitalized may be their biggest stressor at this point in their lives. Abnormal overreactions are common responses (tantrums, bed-wetting, and regression). Preschoolers have object permanence, unlike toddlers, so they handle the situation better.
  • Older children and ados: handle separation anxiety much better than the latter. You may see regression. Separated from friends and being excluded can affect them too
