Answer to Question 1

4
The incidence of abuse in adolescents is greater than once thought.

Answer to Question 2

A
Safety is the highest priority for this patient. Sleep deprivation causes psychomotor deficits. Driver drowsiness and fatigue lead to many automobile injuries and fatalities. Alcohol compounds problems associated with sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation should be evaluated and treated; a 1-year delay is too long.
