While being comforted in the Emergency Department, the 7-year-old sibling of a pediatric trauma victim blurts out to the nurse, It's all my fault When we were fighting yesterday, I told him I wished he was dead The nurse, realizing that the
 
  child is experiencing magical thinking, should respond by: 1. Asking the child if he would like to sit down and drink some water.
 
  2. Sitting the child down in an empty room with markers and paper so that he can draw a picture.
 
  3. Calmly discussing the catheters, tubes, and equipment that the patient requires, and explaining to the sibling why the patient needs them.
 
  4. Reassuring the child that it is normal to get angry and say things that we do not mean, but that we have no control over whether an accident happens.
