Children and TBI
A child's brain is more vulnerable to an injury because it is still developing. It can be months or years for the full effects of a childhood brain injury to become evident as the brain matures. New challenges in learning and behavior may emerge in school over time. Source: Lash, M. (1998), Myths and Facts: When your child has a brain injury.
