Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. This does not address the parents' feelings of depression and anger which are common, and are a normal part of the grieving process. Their loss and feelings must be dealt with before working on the goal of promoting communication.
B Incorrect. The nurse does not need to get the parents to accept that they are not to blame for the child's loss of hearing.
C Incorrect. This response is not helpful in assisting caregivers to accept and adapt to the impairment.
D Correct. The impact of the child's hearing impairment on caregivers must be addressed first before working on the goal of promoting communication. Caregivers need assistance to accept and adapt to the impairment and go through the grieving process. They must go through the stages of the grieving process which is an important part of adjusting to the loss before they can adapt and begin to deal with the challenges of a hearing-impaired child.

Answer to Question 2

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. Compared to children or adults, adolescents' gender attitudes and behavior are not found to be about the same.

C Incorrect. Compared to children or adults, adolescents' gender attitudes and behavior are not found to be somewhat more liberal.
D Correct. Compared to children or adults, adolescents' gender attitudes and behavior are found to be more traditional.
