A Incorrect. Working with a 4-year-old child who was injured in an automobile accident in which the child's mother was killed, you will suspect that this child will view the death of the mother as temporary and reversible. A 4-year-old child lives in a concrete world view, and cannot comprehend an abstraction such as the universality of death.
B Correct. Younger children are more likely than older children to state death is not universal, is avoidable, and occurs in the remote future. In essence, death is temporary and reversible.

Working with a 4-year-old child who was injured in an automobile accident in which the child's mother was killed, you will suspect that this child will view the death of the mother as temporary and reversible. A 4-year-old child lives in a concrete world view, and cannot comprehend an abstraction such as nonfunctionality.
