heavily wooded areas.

Feedback
A These are common fallacies about children and pain.
B These are common fallacies about children and pain.
C Pain is whatever the experiencing person says it is, whenever the person says it
exists. Pain is not questioned in an adult 12 hours after surgery.
D Children may deny pain to the nurse because they fear receiving an injectable
analgesic or because they believe they deserve to suffer as a punishment for a
misdeed. They may refuse to admit pain to a stranger, but readily tell a parent.
