Answer to Question 1

Answer:2
Rationale: The family is normalizing their life with their children by their activities. The family is not staying at home because one member cannot walk; rather,the family is moving on to full participation in life. The family is interacting with others through the process of normalization.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:1
Rationale: Toddlers are developing autonomy,self-control,and independence. Offering toddlers a choice contributes to their sense of autonomy.However, taking medicine is not within the toddler's realm of choice.Dressing and feeding the toddler does not encourage independence and will eventually cause frustration for both parent and toddler. The toddler must learn how to do these activities despite the physical limitations of the right arm.
