Answer to Question 1

A, B
Teaching parents to promote self-esteem in children is important. Some effective strategies include spending one-on-one time with the child as often as possible, refraining from frequent negative criticism, having clearly defined limits and consequences for breaking rules, being firm and consistent in applying rules, making sure rules are reasonable, treating the child with respect, and allowing some latitude for individual actions within defined limits.

Answer to Question 2

A, C
Based on the description of this client in this item, the nurse has developed the nursing diagnosis of Depressed Mood. Appropriate outcomes include eating a well-balanced meal and maintaining grooming and hygiene; both of these may be neglected when a client is depressed. The nurse can discuss and explore spirituality with this client; however, this outcome may or may not contribute to resolution of a problem of Depressed Mood. Additionally, an appropriate outcome may be that the client reports feeling less sad and depressed; however, it may not be realistic or attainable that this client's depressed mood will be resolved by discharge.
