A

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Banning the child from the playroom will not solve the problem. The problem is
his behavior, not the place where he exhibits it.
B Illness is not a reason for a child to be undisciplined. When the child recovers,
the parents will have to deal with a child who is undisciplined and unruly.
C Children should not be made to feel guilty and to have their self-esteem attacked.
D By the nurse's using I rather than the you message, the child can focus on
the behavior. The child and the nurse can begin to explore why the behavior
occurs.

The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
