Answer to Question 1

C
Narcissistic behavior is normal during this period of development. The teenager is seeking a personal identity. Stricter limits are not an appropriate response for a behavior that is part of normal development. More responsibility at home is not an appropriate response for this situation.

Answer to Question 2

C, E, F
As a seizure begins the nurse should look at his or her watch and time the seizure. The nurse should protect the child from injury by loosening clothing at the neck and turning the child gently onto the side, removing any obstacles in the child's environment. Do not restrain the child or insert any object into the child's mouth.
