| a. | Place the client on a strictly controlled calorie-restricted diet |
| b. | Talk to the client about why he is so overweight |
| c. | Teach the client and his parents about healthy eating habits and choices |
| d. | Make a list of foods that are to be restricted in the client’s diet |
ANS: C
Early intervention and education are the best interventions for the treatment and prevention of childhood obesity. Teaching about healthy eating habits provides the tools necessary to correct the problem with long-term success. Placing the client on a strictly controlled calorie-restricted diet provides no education and most likely will cause a rebound effect. Talking to the client about why he is overweight may be an intervention that would occur later in the treatment process after further assessment is completed. Making a list of restricted foods also may cause a rebound effect.

| d. | Follow a bedtime ritual each night, such as reading one book |
ANS: D
One of the first steps in dealing with problems with sleep is following a bedtime ritual each night so as to establish a restful sleep pattern. Additional interventions include limiting watching television. The other options do not establish a restful bedtime ritual that will encourage sleep.

TOP: Common Behavioral Problems of Childhood
KEY: Nursing Process Step: Planning MSC: Client Needs: Psychosocial Integrity
| a. | Leave him during the tantrum, so that he feels isolated from others as a result of his behavior |
| b. | Try to distract him when he becomes frustrated, and reward him for positive behavior |
| c. | Hold the child down until the tantrum stops |
| d. | Put him in the corner for punishment while he is having the tantrum |
ANS: B
Distracting the child may lessen his frustration and prevent the tantrum from occurring, and rewarding positive behavior encourages future positive behavior. Leaving him may frighten him and/or he could hurt himself during the tantrum. Holding the child down will increase his frustration, and putting him in the corner is not effective during a tantrum because his behavior is out of control, so he won’t understand the importance of the punishment.
