Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Parents can provide useful information about their child's immediate life experiences and commonly used words to incorporate in health teaching. Encouraging self-directed learning and incorporating previous life experience are principles of adult learning. The child should touch and play with safe equipment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Recommendations of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force include suggesting small changes and baby steps rather than large ones. The task force also recommends framing the teaching to match the client's perceptions, linking new behaviors to old behaviors, adding new behaviors rather than eliminating established behaviors whenever possible, and fully informing clients of the purposes and expected outcomes of interventions and when to expect these new effects.
