Of Preventive Interventions. Environment Is Considered To Significantly Affect
Development. Nutrition Is Considered To Significantly Affect Development.

Appropriate But Not The Initial Response. The Nurse Would Certainly Want To Get More
Information, But Separating The Child From The Mother Is Not Necessary At This Time.

Logical Thinking And Deductive Reasoning, But That Would Not Explain Why They Would
Act Like A Child.
