A 14-year-old, in the second trimester of pregnancy, has been hiding the pregnancy from her parents. The nurse is helping them develop a plan of care. What is the best thing she can say to the clearly angry parents?
 
  A) Your daughter needs to make decisions about this pregnancy for herself.
  B) I know you must be very upset and angry about your daughter's pregnancy but because she's still an adolescent herself, she'll need your guidance in making nutritional and health choices that will be good for the baby and for herself.
  C) Anger won't help this situation at all. You'll only push your daughter away and she'll be less likely to make good choices.
  D) I understand your anger but if you had encouraged your daughter to use condoms she would probably not be in this situation.

Question 2

A 43-year-old, physically fit, healthy woman who is newly married tells the nurse that she and her husband would like to have a child. What is an appropriate first response?
 
  A) You must know that's pretty risky. Have you thought about adopting instead?
  B) Well, I'm sure you know there are some risks involved so it's helpful that you've been taking such good care of yourself.
  C) You're in great shape now, but are you sure that at your age you'll have enough energy to care for a child?
  D) If you got pregnant now you'd be at risk for multiple fetal pregnancies, chromosomal abnormalities, spontaneous abortion, and hypertension among other things. Are you ready to take that risk?
