A It may be necessary to restrain the toddler for some nursing care or procedures.
Because toddlers need autonomy and do not respond well to restrictions, the
nurse should remove any restriction or restraint as soon as safety permits.
B Allowing a child to hold a favorite toy or blanket is comforting.
C Parents should remain with the child as much as possible to calm and reassure
her.
D The toddler should not be given the overwhelming choice of deciding which
position she prefers.
