By being honest and nonjudgmental with 15-year-old Tony, the nurse has built a relationship in which Tony feels he can talk about things that worry him.
 
  He has shared with the nurse that his parents believe he is too young to know about or think about sex. Tony tells the nurse that he has been having wet dreams and is ashamed and afraid he will get into trouble. Which of the following statements would be appropriate for the nurse to respond?
  A) Since your parents feel you are not ready to talk about sex, you need to honor their wishes. You should try talking to your parents about this.
  B) Don't worry, it is perfectly normal for 15-year-olds to have the kinds of fantasies that lead to wet dreams. You should tell your parents about this.
  C) Wet dreams are not the result of anything you are doing but are simply the body's way of ridding itself of excess semen.
  D) You don't need to feel ashamed. I will speak to your parents about the importance of allowing you to experiment with and feel good about your sexuality.
