Question 2

A mother of two children, an 8-year-old and a 10-year-old, tells the nurse her husband recently has been deployed to the Middle East.
 
  The mother is concerned about the children's interest in constantly watching TV news coverage of activities in the Middle East. Which is the most appropriate suggestion for the nurse to make to this mother? 1. Allow the children to watch as much television as they want. This is how they are coping with their father's absence..
  2. It will just take some time to adjust to their father's absence, then everything will return to normal..
  3. The less that you discuss this, the quicker the children will adjust to their father's absence. Try to keep them busy, and use distractions to keep their mind off of it..
  4. Spend time with your children and take cues from them about how much they want to discuss..

2. The mother should be aware that even though the children might appear to have adjusted, there might be delayed reactions or regressions in behavior.
3. Children need to be able to discuss their feelings and concerns with an adult; otherwise, their emotional distress might increase.
4. Children need to be able to discuss their feelings and concerns with an adult; otherwise, their emotional distress might increase.
