Answer to Question 1

C
The long-term outlook for children with conduct disorders is poor if the problems are present before the child is 10 years old. This behavior is not typical, and relaxing rules and discipline will not aid in his recovery.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The most appropriate nursing response is to reassure the client while not reinforcing the hallucination. Reminding the client that the voices are a part of the illness is a way to help the client accept that the hallucinations are not real. It is also important for the nurse to connect with the client's fears and inner feelings.
