Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The nurse should encourage relationships that include coworkers, male and female housemates, intimate homosexual or heterosexual relationships, cohabitation, marriage, and religious orders. Some adults live with parents or other relatives for social support as well.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Generativity versus stagnation is the challenge of middle adulthood. The tasks of generativity occur when middle adults decide to pass on learning and share skills with younger generations, such as how the client balances the needs of others. Selection of a life pattern is the developmental task for young adults. Reviewing one's life course is the task of older adults. Adolescents establish a sense of self.
