Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A family crisis occurs when the family is not able to cope with an event and becomes disor-ganized or dysfunctional. This occurs when the demands of the situation exceed the resources of the family, a family crisis exists. The best example of this would be when a husband loses his job and the family becomes homeless. Parents seeking grief counseling after a death of a child, neighbors assisting to care for children, and a nurse giving a child chemotherapy at home all demonstrate appropriate coping mechanisms, although all of these events can cause additional stress for the family.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A high-crime neighborhood is a social risk. Inadequate housing, not being educated, and not be-ing insured are economic risks.
