Answer to Question 1

B
In the period after a tonic-clonic seizure, the child may be confused and lethargic. Some children may sleep for a period of time. Neither irritability nor hunger is typical of the period after a tonic-clonic seizure. Nausea and vomiting are not expected reactions in the postictal period. The child will more likely be confused and lethargic after a tonic-clonic seizure.

Answer to Question 2

D
School-age children form friendships with peers of the same sex. Magical thinking is developmentally appropriate for the preschooler. Opposite-sex friendships are not typical for the 7-year-old child. Seven-year-old children socialize with their peers, not their parents.
