Answer:

Coach the daughter on how to help apply the splint

Explanation:

By Coaching or teaching the daughter on how to help apply the splint will at least relieve the mother and reduce the fear in her because she will believe that her daughter now has better experience on how to apply the splint on her arm in order to support and immobilize the broken bone because splints is something the mother had to always wear on her arm until the bone is fully healed and set.

Therefore her daughter should be well coach on how to use or apply the split on her mother arm.

What are some common symptoms that patients expirence when affected by anxiety
laila [671]
Feelings of shyness or discomfort in certain situations aren't necessarily signs of social anxiety disorder, particularly in children. Comfort levels in social situations vary, depending on personality traits and life experiences. Some people are naturally reserved and others are more outgoing.

In contrast to everyday nervousness, social anxiety disorder includes fear, anxiety and avoidance that interfere with daily routine, work, school or other activities. Social anxiety disorder typically begins in the early to mid-teens, though it can sometimes start in younger children or in adults.
