Answer to Question 1

A
An individual's family is an important group in one's life. Family members should be included and consulted for details about the client's care. In this case the family is also in crisis and needs support and the satisfaction that their loved one is receiving good care. All other options seek to exclude the family from this support.

Answer to Question 2

C
One's sexual orientation is established by late childhood. It continues to develop through adulthood. Gender is understood in early childhood.
