Which life event or transition is reported to be particularly stressful to toddlers?
a. having more than five siblings c. both parents working outside the home

B
A variety of life events and transitions can produce stress in the toddler. Among the most stressful are personal injury or illness, the death of a parent, or loss of a parent through separation or divorce. The number of siblings in a toddler's family does not necessarily produce stress. There is no evidence that both parents working outside the home is stressful to children. The death of a parent is especially stressful, but typically not the illness or death of a cousin.
