Answer to Question 1

Answer: Couples should consider why they want to have a child. They should discuss whether they are ready to make the sacrifices necessary to bear and raise a child. In addition, they should examine whether they can financially afford a child. Both should consider the effect of their age, since the mother's and the father's age can affect the health of the child. Finally, the partners should assess their health status and health behaviors, and both parents-to-be should practice healthy habits such as avoiding smoking and substance abuse.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
