单选题 The mother of a hospitalized 3-year-old girl expresses concern because her daughter is wetting the bed. What should the nurse tell her?

A. "It's common for a child to exhibit regressive behavior when anxious or stressed. "
B. "Your child is probably angry about being hospitalized. This is her way of acting out. "
C. "Don't worry. It's common for a 3-year-olcl child to not be fully toilet-trained. "
D. "The nurses probably haven't been answering the call light soon enough. They will try to respond more quickly. "

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】Young children commonly demonstrate regressive behavior when anxious, under stress, or in a strange environment. Although the child could be deliberately wetting the bed out of anger, her behavior is most likely not under voluntary control. It's appropriate to expect a 3-year-old child to be toilet-trained, but it isn't appropriate to expect that child to be able to utilize a call light to summon the nurse.
