Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

Rituals are common among children and do not automatically indicate a disorder. Some children with medical illnesses repeat behaviors for self-care purposes related to their illnesses. Ritualistic behaviors, like fears, appear to follow a developmental sequence and often disappear with increasing maturity.
