Quizplus · Accepted Answer

One of the criteria for determining the likely need to consult a psychologist is to what extent the child's inappropriate behavior is disrupting both the child's and the parent's everyday life. The kinds of behavior mentioned in options a, b, and are ordinary examples of typical young child behavior and short-lived episodes having no long term impact on either the child or the parents.
