Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Survivor's guilt is the feeling of guilt or discomfort experienced by siblings or family members of a child with a disability, who may feel guilty for being healthy and not experiencing the same challenges as their sibling. This can lead to feelings of sadness, anger, or resentment towards the sibling with the disability. The other options (shame, sibling syndrome, and sibling rivalry) are not specifically associated with this type of emotional response.
