A nurse is caring for a 9-year-old child who mimics shooting a gun with their hand whenever someone enters the room or tries to interact with them.

 This is an example of which manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder? 

Choice A rationale

Insisting on having their own way when playing with friends is a common behavior among children and is not necessarily related to a traumatic experience. It could be a sign of a strong personality or a phase of development where the child is learning about power and control.
Choice B rationale
Crying because they are the smallest child in their class is more likely related to self-esteem or body image issues. This behavior is not typically associated with experiencing a traumatic event like a house fire.
Choice C rationale
Being rude to siblings when things do not go their way is a common behavior among children and is not necessarily indicative of a traumatic experience. It could be a sign of frustration or difficulty managing emotions.
Choice D rationale
Making small fires in the backyard could be a sign that the child is trying to make sense of or reenact the traumatic experience of their house being destroyed by a wildfire. This behavior is a cause for concern and should be addressed with professional help.

Choice A rationale
While a family history of anxiety disorders can increase the risk of developing such disorders, positive childhood experiences can serve as protective factors, reducing the likelihood of developing an anxiety disorder.
Choice B rationale

Although a family history of cancer can cause stress and anxiety, especially if the client is recently unemployed and potentially struggling with financial instability, this does not necessarily mean they are most likely to develop an anxiety disorder. Unemployment can indeed be a source of stress, but it is not a direct cause of anxiety disorders.
Choice C rationale
Not graduating from high school or not completing the GED test can lead to lower socioeconomic status and fewer job opportunities, which can be stressful. However, these factors alone do not make someone most likely to develop an anxiety disorder.
Choice D rationale
A client who had multiple adverse childhood experiences and whose parents both have a history of anxiety disorders is most likely to develop an anxiety disorder. Adverse childhood experiences, such as abuse and neglect, are significant risk factors for the development of anxiety disorders later in life. Furthermore, having parents with a history of anxiety disorders suggests a possible genetic predisposition.
