Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Calling attention to broken fluency can make the situation worse. The child should not be encouraged to speak if he or she does not want to. The parents should intercept any children who desire to finish the child with broken fluency's words or sentences. The child should not be punished or corrected for broken fluency because this is a normal part of speech development.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
With the loss of the placenta at birth, the newborn must now assume control of glucose homeostasis. This is achieved by early oral intermittent feedings. Observing for respiratory distress, promoting bonding, and monitoring vital signs, although important, are not the priority for this newborn.
