Answer to Question 1

D
The nurse should help the troubled teenager externalize his feelings.

Answer to Question 2

A
A teen should have an allowance. This will allow the teen to learn how to use money in a responsible way. If parents hand out money as asked, the child will not learn how to save or plan ahead. A teen should have the responsibility of balancing his or her own checkbook. Maintaining the amount of the allowance may not meet the needs of the maturing adolescent.
