Answer to Question 1

D
The toddler's developmental task is to achieve autonomy. Encouraging toddlers to do things for themselves assists with this developmental task. Toddlers participate in parallel play. They play next to rather than with age mates. Excessive stress on the differences between right and wrong can stifle autonomy in the toddler and foster shame and doubt.

Answer to Question 2

A
The peer group is important to the adolescent's sense of belonging and identity; therefore, separation from friends is a major source of anxiety for the hospitalized adolescent. Adolescents should be encouraged to wear their own clothes to foster their sense of identity. Questions and concerns about the adolescent's appearance and the effects of illness on appearance should be encouraged. How the adolescent copes should be asked directly of the adolescent.
