The nurse teaching safety to teens knows that which of these is the leading cause of death among adolescents?

A. Substituting cow's milk if breast milk is not availablE. Cow's milk is not recommended as a substitute for breast milk or infant formula for infants under 12 months old due to its low iron content and potential for causing gastrointestinal irritation.

B. Advising fluid intake per feeding of 5 or 6 ounces: The appropriate fluid intake for a 2-week- old infant is typically guided by feeding cues and may vary from feeding to feeding. Providing a specific volume of fluid per feeding may not be appropriate, as infants should be fed on demand.

C. Advocating iron supplements with bottle-feeding: Iron supplementation is generally recommended for breastfed infants starting at around 4 months of age, but it is not typically necessary for formula-fed infants during the first few weeks of life. Additionally, iron

supplementation should be prescribed and monitored by a healthcare provider rather than advocated as a general guideline.

D. Discouraging the addition of fruit juice to the diet: This is the most effective anticipatory guidance because it aligns with current recommendations from pediatric healthcare

organizations. Fruit juice offers little nutritional value for infants and can contribute to dental caries and excessive calorie intake. It is generally recommended to avoid giving fruit juice to infants under 1 year old.

A. Change the routine of the preschooler often to stimulate initiativE. While providing variety and new experiences is important for stimulating a child's curiosity and creativity, abruptly changing routines too often can disrupt the child's sense of security and stability. Consistency in routines helps preschoolers feel secure and understand expectations.

B. Do not set limits on the preschooler's behavior as this results in low self-esteem: Setting appropriate limits and boundaries is essential for preschoolers to develop a sense of security and learn socially acceptable behavior. However, overly strict or rigid limits can stifle initiative and creativity. It's important for parents to strike a balance between setting limits and allowing for exploration and initiative.

C. As a parent, decide how and with whom the child will play: Encouraging preschoolers to

make their own choices about play activities and playmates fosters independence and initiative. Parents should provide opportunities for free play and exploration within safe boundaries,

allowing the child to make decisions and learn from their experiences.

D. Reward the child for initiative in order to build self-esteem: Positive reinforcement for initiative-taking behavior encourages preschoolers to explore their environment, try new

activities, and develop confidence in their abilities. By praising and acknowledging their efforts, parents can help build their child's self-esteem and motivation to take on new challenges.
