Answer to Question 2

B
Nurses can provide anticipatory guidance to parents. By understanding the needs of the developing child, the nurse can guide the parents to avoid problems before they happen. They can also help to alleviate parent anxiety about future issues and needs. Nurses do not make referrals. Parents cannot be forced to immunize children. Not all diseases are preventable.
