Answer to Question 1

1,2,3
Rationale 1: Prenatal education classes specifically designed for teens can provide a forum for verbalization of fears and concerns.
Rationale 2: Many teenagers might feel that they might not receive privacy, respect, and acceptance in a standard adult-centered childbirth class.
Rationale 3: Often, teenage mothers face pregnancy and childbirth without adequate support from a partner or parents. The teens-only class will provide this support.
Rationale 4: Infant stimulation is not a goal of the prenatal education for teens.
Rationale 5: All of the birthing methods should be presented to the adolescents during the prenatal education.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale 1: Although acculturation involves adoption of some of the majority culture's practices and beliefs, each cultural group will continue to hold and express its own set of values and beliefs.
Rationale 2: When the nurse assumes that a client has the same values and beliefs as the nurse, misunderstanding will frequently occur, which in turn can negatively impact nurseclient communication.
Rationale 3: Expression of pain is one area that varies greatly from one culture to another.
Rationale 4: The belief that one's own values and beliefs are the best will not improve the quality of care provided to culturally diverse patient bases.
