Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Teens often feel invincible, and they do not think about the negative outcomes they are advised could come true. Many teens believe that they are unique and different and that everything will work out fine. Teenagers often express the unrealistic attitude that they can do it all. Most preg-nancies are unintended.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Nurses must keep in mind that they should avoid imposing opinions on the decision- making process of teen mothers. The nurse should also assess the relationship between the pregnant teen and her partner and what role she expects him to play. Sensitive language should be usedavoid saying giving away a child or putting up for adoption.
