Answer to Question 1

D
Use of play to express feelings is appropriate because the cognitive and language abilities of the
child may require acting out of feelings if verbal expression is limited. Option A would not be
advantageous to the child. Option B provides no outlet for feelings or opportunity to develop coping
skills. Option C would be unnecessary.

Answer to Question 2

C
The possibility of a crime having been committed is the actual basis on which the nurse-client
relationship is predicated. The other options are elements of forensic nursing practice.
