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.
