    A nurse is teaching the parents of a toddler about temper tantrums. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse include in the teaching?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Temper tantrums are not classified as a learning disability; they are a normal part of toddler development. B. A psychological consult is not necessary unless tantrums are severe or persistent and interfere significantly with the child's functioning or development. C. Leaving the room during a tantrum may not be advisable; it is better to stay calm and ensure the child's safety while they express their frustration. D. Temper tantrums are a normal developmental phase where toddlers express frustration and attempt to gain control of their environment. Understanding this helps parents manage tantrums effectively and respond appropriately.
