Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale:
1. The child with cystic fibrosis has something the younger child does not have. Cystic fibrosis brings the affected child more attention from others. Even if the parents make efforts to spend more time with siblings of ill children, the well child will be jealous because the situation can never be equal. The 6-year-old child does not understand the complications of the disease, and only sees the 11-year-old being treated differently.
2. Siblings of ill children can experience isolation, but this child's comment does not support these feelings. The child with cystic fibrosis has something the younger child does not have.

Even if the parents make efforts to spend more time with siblings of ill children, the well child will be jealous because the situation can never be equal. The 6-year-old child does not understand the complications of the disease, and only sees the 11-year-old being treated differently.
