Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
To assess the family, the community health nurse must comprehend developmental phases and the struggles that families experience while going through them. The mother is recognizing the stage of launching family that occurs when the youngest child leaves home. The development requirement of this stage of life includes establishment of independent identities for parentssuch as focusing on becoming a crafts person.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Internal structure of the family refers to such items as family composition, gender, rank order (by age and sex), subsystems through which the family functions, and boundaries or who is in and who is not in the family system. Extended family members are part of the external structure.
