Answer to Question 1

Answer:1,3,4
Rationale:Statistics show that about 75 of unintentional deaths and suicides are committed with firearms found in the home. The safety measures of using a gun lock,keeping the gun and ammunition separate,and putting the guns in a locked cabinet will at least makes the guns less accessible. Telling a child that a gun is dangerousand not to be touched will probably make it more fascinating.Even with knowledge of the proper use of a firearm,a 10-year-old child's judgment may not be mature enough to prevent misuse of it.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:3
Rationale: All of the other questions assume that the adolescent is involved in heterosexual relationships.Do you have one or more sexual partners?provides the adolescent an opportunity to discuss sexual practices in a homosexual or alternative relationship if this applies to her.
