Answer to Question 1

1

Rationale: Frequent criticism of children results in low self-esteem and can promote eating disorders. Restricting food choices can be seen as a punishment unless the child is included in planning. Talking with teachers could make the child feel worse about herself and monitoring of food at school is an improbable solution. Childhood obesity is related to poor eating habits and lack of exercise rather than age.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Iron-fortified infant cereal is traditionally the first solid food introduced.
