Question

1. Alicia is cared for at a child care center every weekend. What questions would you want to ask about the center to evaluate if they are encouraging Alicia’s infancy developmental task?

2. Mr. Scinta says he’ll watch Alicia later “when she’s more fun.” What features of a 3-month-old could you point out to him to help convince him she is fun to care for now?

Answer 1

Answer 1. If the child is referred for an infancy development task, than she can be suffering from ADHD, a neurodevelopment disorder. ADHD is a disorder that causes impairment of functioning. The question must be asked from the evaluating center.

1. That what can be the disease and why such therapy is preferred?

2. Can this be considered autism?

Answer 2. Mr.Scinta can be convinced for examination if the child is not crying, she is calm and not getting irritated, she is watching the object and responding, and because the baby is not crying and annoying she is in fun and can be examined.

Because these developmental examinations are done when the child is relaxed and not in restlessness.
