what do children do when they are stressed?

Question

ok children get stress from almost anything but how do they manage it or what do they do "express" their feelings or the stress they have

Answer 1

depends.
some are:
crying
stomach ache
getting sick
vomiting
withdrawing
sleeping
doing very poorly in school and activities
partly depends on the age of the child
older kids/teens may use alcohol, drugs, cutting, sex, etc.

Answer 2

A lot of times for younger children they don't know how to express their feelings. They may throw tantrums, get argumentative, or become withdrawn. Sometimes older kids will act out and take their aggression out on the closest parent possible. Whether it's your fault or not.

Answer 3

When you say "children", I think younger than 13. I don't ever recall having 'stress' quite like I expirience it now as an 18 year old. I would guess that when kids are in distress, they either take it out on their friends or slack in school work.

Answer 4
