Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The nursing diagnosis of imbalanced nutrition is appropriate because the child's fat intake should not be restricted up until the age of 2 years. The developing body needs fat to ensure development of the nervous system. The mother using skim milk for the child's bottle does not indicate health-seeking behaviors, delayed growth and development, or readiness for enhanced family coping.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Recognizing normal growth and development patterns of children helps to determine if children are following normal development and when referrals are needed. Nurses are the health care providers who interact with children and measure height and weight, which are used to recognize developmental delays. Helping with homework, talking about television, and identifying favorite subjects in school will not support the 2020 National Health Goals for growth and development of children.
