The developmental theory

      Mrs. Rodriguez brings Sophia, her 3-year-old, into the emergency department. Mrs. Rodriguez has been in the United States from Mexico for only 1 year and brings Sophia to the ER often with questions. This visit, Mrs. Rodriguez mentions to you that Sophia has been resistant to go to bed and often wakes crying and fearful. Mrs. Rodriquez thinks an evil spirit may be the cause of Sophia's crying. As a CCLS, you know that fears are common in preschool-age children. What recommendations would you have regarding home care for Sophia's fears, and how would you respond to Mrs. Rodriguez's concern of the evil spirit? Provide the developmental theory that guides your intervention.
