  1. After you share your feelings with others, you will feel better.
  2. You will feel better soon. Time will heal your wounds.
  3. It must be difficult feeling the way you do.
  4. Hearing these horrible stories makes me feel bad.

  2. Age-appropriate language development
  3. Stereotypic movements and speech patterns
  4. Obsession with moving objects

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
This response displays empathy and understanding. Option 1 offers false hope and does not deal directly with the client's feelings. Option 2 offers false hope and uses meaningless platitudes. Option 4 changes the focus from the client to the nurse and is nontherapeutic.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Communication will be facilitated knowing that a client with Asperger's disorder has no clinical-ly significant delays in language or cognitive function. Options 1, 3, and 4 are characteristics of both disorders.
