A kindergartener is disruptive to the class
This child is unable to sit for expected lengths of time, inattentive to the teacher, and aggressive toward others, bursting out talking while the teacher is talking. Other children shun this child. The nurse plans interventions designed to:
a. provide inpatient treatment for the child.
b. reduce loneliness and increase self-esteem.
c. improve language and communication skills.
d. promote individuation and integration of self-concept.
B
Because of their disruptive behaviors, children with attention deficit–hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often receive negative feedback from parents, teachers, and peers, leading to self-esteem disturbance. These same behaviors lead peers to avoid the child with ADHD, who seems reckless and impulsive, and can rarely finish games, leaving the child with ADHD vulnerable to loneliness. The other options might or might not be relevant but are not the priority. The child does not need inpatient treatment at this time.
