Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The teen mother has conflicting developmental tasks to negotiate. Adolescents must develop a personal value system; choose a vocation/career; develop body image, sexuality, and a stable identity; and attain independence from their parents. The teen who continues to go to school with an on-site day care is providing child care for her baby and finishing her education, both of which are role-appropriate. The teen whose parents care for the infant is not fully involved as a mother. The teen who needs strong encouragement to keep appointments and the teen who only plans activities one day at a time are not future oriented.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Although all options can be very beneficial, the biggest challenge women in the high-tech environment of this unit face is stress that hinders development of their maternal role. One solution may be a program specifically designed to help women negotiate their roles and prepare for parenting. Of course, spiritual care should be respectful of individual beliefs.
