Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

A decreased use of birth control is associated with an increased risk of dating violence and rape. African American girls report dating violence more commonly than Hispanic or Caucasian girls. Girls who report dating violence are more likely to report other at-risk behaviors, such as using illegal substances. Previous violence is associated with an increased risk of dating violence.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B

When teaching parents to suspect unsafe sexual practices in teens, the nurse emphasizes that the children should be monitored for substance abuse as a new behavior. This does not necessarily mean there is dating violence, but it can be a sign if this is a new behavior. The daughter experiencing dating violence is more apt to show signs of depression and possible suicidal behavior. If a child has a new boyfriend or girlfriend, the parents are taught to meet the child's friends; it is not a sign of dating violence for the child to have a new girlfriend. Six-year-olds are too young for a discussion regarding dating violence.
