Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
During the school-age years, the child's sense of morality is constantly being developed. According to Kohlberg, the school-age child is at the conventional stage of moral development. The 7- to 10-year-old usually follows rules out of a sense of being a good person.. He or she wants to be a good person to his or her parents, friends, and teachers and to himself or herself.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The nurse keeps the child with a nosebleed in an upright position with the head tilted slightly forward to minimize the amount of blood pressure in nasal vessels and to keep blood moving forward, not back into the nasopharynx. Then the nurse should apply pressure to the cartilage on the sides of the nose with the fingers for about 10 minutes. The head should not be turned. The child should not be in a flat position. Applying pressure to the forehead will not stop the flow of blood from the nose.
