Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
Relationships with aging parents may result in conflict, frustration, and/or anger as older adults become more dependent. The statement about the father being set in his ways suggests frustration. The statements about the children enjoying their grandfather, having some time for the parents and children, and taking care of the father because he has done the same for them reflect positive aspects of the family's functioning.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
During the school-age period, children have many fears and may use phobias and ritualistic good luck behaviors as adaptive mechanisms. Parents and significant others need to understand these behaviors rather than deny them to foster development. Peer group identity and role confusion are areas of concern for adolescents. The preschool years are crucial for the development of initiative. Stable family relationships can enhance the development of creativity to foster the child's ability to begin to act independently.
