Children involved in war
The stress of conflict can be a cause of great stress to a child. Children are often the worst victims of war, not only because they may lose their parents and families but also because they may be used as agents of war. Child soldiers may not only face severe physical injuries and death, but also perpetrate violence on others. Such experiences may make them violent persons when they grow up.
When exposed to violence, some children become withdrawn,
complain of nightmares, headaches and other body aches, and
behave as if they are much younger than they actually are.
