An old man acting like a child can stem from dementia/cognitive decline, stress/trauma causing regression (Peter Pan Syndrome), personality traits, or simply a desire to be cared for and let go of adult responsibilities, often linked to feeling overwhelmed or seeking comfort; it's a complex behavior reflecting deep-seated needs or neurological changes.
Dementia: Conditions like Alzheimer's can cause memory gaps and loss of learned behaviors, leading to childlike expressions or dependency as the brain regresses developmentally.
Brain Changes: With aging, changes in brain function can affect self-control, emotional regulation, and judgment, sometimes leading to impulsivity or simplistic reactions.
Regression: Under stress, fear, or insecurity, adults may regress to earlier developmental stages where they felt safer and cared for, needing comfort.
"Peter Pan Syndrome": A non-clinical term for adults who resist responsibility and accountability, preferring play and dependency.
