Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D, E
Abusive families are often socially isolated and have few supportive relationships. Single-parent families are at higher risk for abuse. Younger parents more often are abusers of their children. Abusive parents have stressors such as low-income circumstances, with little education, and are not middle class parents.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
Nightmares are scary dreams, the child can describe the nightmare, and the child is reassured by a parent's presence. Sleep terrors occur usually 1 to 4 hours after falling asleep, but nightmares occur in the second half of sleep. Sleep terrors occur during nonrapid eye movement sleep, but nightmares occur during rapid eye movement sleep.
