Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Children's temperaments may be categorized into three major groups: easy, difficult, and slow to warm up. Easy children are even-tempered and have regular biological functions, predictable behavior, and a positive attitude toward new experiences. Difficult children are irritable, overactive, and intense; they react to new experiences by withdrawing and are frustrated easily. Children in the slow-to-warm-up category are moody and less active and have more irregular reactions; they react to new experiences with mild but passive resistance and need extra time to adjust to new situations.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
When teaching an adolescent about condom use, the nurse should tell the adolescent to put the condom on before any genital contact. A new condom should be used with each act of sexual intercourse; a condom should never be reused. Condoms should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and never stored in wallets, automobiles, or anywhere they could be exposed to extreme temperatures. Only water-soluble lubricants should be used with latex condoms. Oil-based or petroleum-based lubricants such as Vaseline can weaken latex condoms.
