A 2 year old client, who has had multiple hospitalizations for treatment of a congenital disorder, is lying curled in bed holding a stuffed animal and will not interact with the parents. The nurse interprets this client's behavior as being caused by:
 
  1. The parents may have been abusing this child.
  2. The child is probably developmentally delayed secondary to multiple hospitalizations.
  3. The child is reacting as a normal 2-year-old.
  4. The child could be suffering from a clinical depression.
