9 months old when an unfamiliar person other than the child's parents attempts to hold or closely

years of age.Learned behavior is a set of behaviors learned when the child interacts with his or her
caretaker (mother) who provides food as comfort. This helps to form attachment. Separation anxiety

out of his or her sight or leaves the room. Separation Anxiety Disorder occurs later in childhood and is
characterized by excessive worry about being away from a caregiver. This behavior is not typical or
appropriate for the age of the child at which it occurs.
