The caregivers of a 16-year-old male are concerned that the
 
  child is spending too much time with a girlfriend and less time on school work. What information might the nurse offer these caregivers about the child's behavior?
  A) The child is not developmentally mature enough to make healthy choices about the ways in which he spends his time, so it would be helpful if they would make a schedule for him that includes about a half an hour per day to talk with his girlfriend.
  B) The child has developed his own identity by now; being able to establish close relationships with girls is important preparation for all of his adult relationships. They should honor his need to be with or talk to his girlfriend as long as he has completed his schoolwork for the day.
  C) The child is not developmentally mature enough to have an intimate relationship with one girl; they should encourage him to spend time with groups of friends rather than time alone with his girlfriend.
  D) The child has chosen a girl who is overly dependent on him. They should talk to him about making sure he meets his own needs, including doing the schoolwork he enjoys, in any relationship.

Question 2

The nurse is measuring the height of a 13-year-old girl who has just started menstruating. At age 9, the child was 56 in tall.
 
  If the child is following a normal pattern of growth, the nurse would expect her to now be approximately how tall?
  A) 58 in tall
  B) 62 in tall
  C) 68 in tall
  D) 76 in tall
