Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
In the stage of interpersonal relations of mutuality, the child will follow rules because of a need to be a good person in their own eyes and in the eyes of others. The mother's praise reinforces this behavior. In the punishment/obedience stage, the child does right to avoid punishment. In the individualism stage, the child will carry out actions to satisfy own needs rather than others. In the maintenance of social order stage, the child will follow rules of authority figures as well as parents in an effort to keep the system working.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
For children, fat intake does not need to be restricted for the first 2 years of life because fat is necessary for myelination of spinal nerves. After the age of 2 years, fat intake can be tailored to meet the guidelines of 30 total intake for both children and adults. The patient should not restrict all fatty foods up until the age of 5 years or after the age of 10 years. Fat intake after the age of 2 years should be limited to 30 of total caloric intake.
