This paper indicates that an infant's fears are most likely reactions to real and immediate events while a preschoolers' fears many times stem from his or her imagination. The author points out that humans have a built-in mechanism, which is triggered by fear, called the flight or fight reaction that acts as a survival mechanism and saves people from many potential dangerous or violent situations. The paper relates that Fear continues throughout the life-span in various forms and, many times, it prevents people from living their lives to the fullest potential because people allow their fears to get in the way and cripple them from going any farther.
