Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
Respect is an indispensable component of effective communication. To be respectful means to recognize the expertise that family caregivers have acquired through experience and to assume until proved otherwise that they are doing the best they can and have the best interests of their relatives at heart. The concepts of enabling and codependency translate into adding insult to injury. Family members are especially affronted when these labels are used stereotypically, without taking time to get to know the people involved.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
In the establishment stage, individuals build a mutually satisfying relationship; incorporate their spouse/partner into relationships with extended family; set up a household and delineate household responsibilities for each partner; and plan for their own family.
