Evaluating Child Attachment
Update: 2025-11-26
Description
The PMHNP is evaluating a family at the request of county social services. A mother, father, 8-year-old and 2-year-old are present for the evaluation. The NP notes that the 2-year-old clings excessively to the parents, despite the fact that the parents do not seem to be particularly responsive to the child’s caution. The 2-year-old does not exhibit typical curiosity about his new environment and does not express any curiosity about the PMHNP.
These behaviors are consistent with:
A. Separation anxiety disorder
B. Normal behavior
C. Autism spectrum disorder.
D. Insecure-ambivalent attachment
