Medicare Part B does not cover routine hearing exams or hearing aids. Medicaid, however, may cover some of the cost of hearing aids, depending on the state you live in. That's because each state operates its own Medicaid program, and each program has slightly different rules and coverage.
Research shows that infants display behaviours that are important beginnings for theory-of-mind development (see details in Mooreâs and Sommerville âs papers in the chapter on social cognition 9,10). By age 2, children clearly show awareness of the difference between thoughts in the mind and things in the world.
Few parents would argue with the observation that children age 6 and younger do not have great control over their feelings and impulses. Nor is your very young child likely to take genuine responsibility for her actions, or heed adults' urging to be considerate of others. When she does the right thing, she is more likely responding to your expectations and demands than exercising her own conscience.
