Answer 1

It depends whether you are referring to a child too young to simply tell you it is hungry or whether you are trying to identify evidence of neglect.

A hungry infant will cry, suck their fists or other object and may try to take food off another child. Their stomach may rumble audibly and they may salivate more. Older infants will point and attempt to vocalise their need.

A neglected child (of school age) may be bad tempered due to low blood sugar, may horde or steal food from others and will complain of hunger in between meals. At meal times, they may not eat if not provided with food or means to purchase it and will behave in a disruptive manner to disguise their distress.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

Crying.

Answer 3

HUNGRY-irritability, may be whiny, not nice to other children

NOT HUNGRY-happy, calm, getting along with others,peaceful

Answer 4

if its a baby, then they tend to suckle on anything, usually their fists, an older child will say "im hungry" lol. well my daughter does.

They can get grumpy and angry...but i think a mothers instinct knows when her child is hungry... if not theres something wrong... lol :)

Answer 5

Let's think about this question for a minute....hmmmmmmm.

I believe, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, hungry children do, in fact, eat when they are hungry.  Unless you mean Hungary.  In that case you would need to ask someone who's been there.  But they would probably act like most other children.

What kind of classes are you taking?!

Hungry children throw fits and are grouchy.

Full children are more complacent and agreeable, often sleepy.

Answer 6

well..........first they would say they were hungry! but if they were too young my experience of my boys (years ago) would be

ratty

annoyed

stomping of feet

screaming

if you didnt give them what they wanted like anyone they would start getting angry,,,,, im like that now i get really fed up and angry if im angry (im 43 lol) maybe taking it out on something else like throwing things etc. its just really frustration - also their glucose levels would probably fall which would make them tired,

its kind of a wierd question though i mean wouldnt they just eat or do u mean a really young kid

what is your course called?

hope this helps

ps anyone got a biscuit?
