Answer to Question 1

A
Teens should be encouraged to gain acceptance in a peer group. Parents should not distance themselves from the teen, even if the teen does not seem to want their help. Discouraging a teen from conforming to a peer group will make detachment from parents difficult. Community resources and family networking are excellent sources of help.

Answer to Question 2

A
Inhaling aromatic substances can depress the central nervous system, including respiratory rate and general sensorium.
