Answer to Question 1

A
Asian American families traditionally place the father in the position of power as the head of the household. Mothers, as well as other women, are usually subservient to fathers in these cultures. Asian Americans are more likely to be reserved.

Answer to Question 2

A
The caregiver must be aware of his or her values regarding sexuality. Values are easily conveyed, often through nonverbal messages, if the caregiver is not fully aware of his or her beliefs.
