A Prematurity Stereotype Is

A prematurity stereotype is

A) beneficial to premature infants because we expect very little from them, and this is appropriate for their developmental level.
B) a stereotypically negative view of a premature infant that results in parents or others lowering their expectations for the child.
C) the belief that premature infants who survive are especially graced, and should be treated with deference and respect.
D) the idea that premature infants need to be "toughened up" so you should demand even more from them than a full-term infant.
