How Does the Parasympathetic System Develop in Children?

Development of the parasympathetic system begins in utero and continues postnatally. The vagus nerve, a key component of the PNS, matures significantly during the first few years of life. This maturation is critical for the development of functions such as heart rate regulation, digestion, and social engagement behaviors.
