By 9 months,infants play simple social games such as patty-cake and peek-a-boo.By 1 year,infants not only recognize their own names but are able to say three to five words and understand almost 100 words.Extended separations from parents complicate the attachment process and increase the number of caregivers with whom they must interact.Ideally,the parents provide most of the care during hospitalizations.
