True/False: Physical boundaries vary on the age of a child. For example it is appropriate for a toddler to sit in the lap of an adult but not for a teenager.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Physical boundaries vary on the age of a child. This means that what is appropriate or acceptable in terms of physical contact and proximity differs depending on the age of the child. For example, it is generally considered appropriate for a toddler to sit in the lap of an adult as a form of comfort and bonding, but it would not be appropriate for a teenager to do the same. This is because as children grow older, their need for personal space and independence increases, and physical boundaries need to be respected accordingly.Rate this question:
