Answer to Question 1

C
Although immunizations have been documented to have a negative effect in a small number of cases, an unimmunized infant is at greater risk for development of complications from childhood diseases than from the vaccines. It is the parents' decision not to immunize the child; however, the nurse has a responsibility to inform parents about the risks to infants who are not immunized. Grandparents can be supportive but are not the primary decision makers for the infant. Telling parents that they are making a mistake is an inappropriate response.

Answer to Question 2

C
To adhere to the medication schedule, children need to understand that the medication must be taken two or three times per day. The adolescent with Graves' disease is not constipated. Making decisions about her medication is not appropriate for a 12-year-old child. The management of Graves' disease does not interfere with school attendance and does not require alternative educational plans.
