A nurse is discussing risk factors for child maltreatment with a newly licensed nurse. Which of the following examples should the nurse include?

A. A toddler who has atopic dermatitis: Atopic dermatitis is a common chronic skin condition and does not increase the risk of child maltreatment. While it may require ongoing care, it is not associated with higher rates of abuse or neglect. B. An only child: Being an only child is not a recognized risk factor for child maltreatment. Maltreatment risk is more closely related to caregiver stress, child vulnerability, and family dynamics rather than sibling status. C. A school-age child who has cerebral palsy: Children with physical or developmental disabilities are at increased risk for maltreatment due to caregiver stress, dependency, and communication barriers. These children may be less able to protect themselves or report abuse, making them more vulnerable. D. A child who was conceived by in vitro fertilization: Conception through assisted reproductive technology does not increase the risk of child maltreatment. These children are often highly desired and planned, which does not align with known risk factors for abuse or neglect.
