Answer to Question 1

A
Response:
Children taking antidepressants are at risk for the development of presuicidal behavior, which may be indicated by a loss of interest or pleasure. Gastric upset, sedation, and urinary retention may or may not occur, but none of these would be as important to report as the potential for self-harm.

Answer to Question 2

D
Response:
Due to the extent of cognition required to understand and produce speech, the most sensitive early indicator of intellectual disability is delayed language development. A history of seizures, preterm birth, and vision deficit may be associated with intellectual disability but are not the most sensitive indicators.
