Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: The family is normalizing life with the children through activities. The family is not staying at home because one member cannot walk; rather, the family is moving on to full participation in life. The family is interacting with others through the process of normalization.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: The child with cystic fibrosis has something the younger child does not have. Cystic fibrosis brings the affected child more attention from others. Even if parents strive to spend more time with siblings of ill children, the well child will be jealous because the situation can never be equal. The 5-year-old child does not understand the complications of the disease and only sees the 9-year-old child treated differently. Siblings of ill children may experience loneliness, isolation, or anger; but the child's comment does not support these feelings.
