  3. Risk for impaired parenting related to harsh disciplinary methods
  4. Powerlessness related to inability to keep child quiet

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Research suggests that children who are abused are at high risk for antisocial behavior for a peri-od of at least 2 years after the battering incident. The boy's remark is not consistent with any of the other options.
