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.

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.
