Answer to Question 1

A
The use of SSRIs is strongly warned against when treating children with depression due to the increased incidence of suicidal ideation and attempts. While the focus of studies concerning this has been paroxetine (trade name Paxil), there is evidence that there may be an increased risk for almost all SSRIs, except possibly fluoxetine (Prozac).

Answer to Question 2

C
Clients who maintain a personal space of only 12 to 10 inches of the nurse are demonstrating dependency. These clients may need to develop boundaries and a stronger sense of self to establish the social skills necessary to initiate communication with others. When appropriate in the nurse-client relationship, the nurse will use observations to let the client know how the client's verbal messages come across to others.
