The nurse is identifying outcomes for a family with a preschool-age child who has broken fluency. Which outcome would be the most appropriate for this family?
A) The parents will not call attention to the child's broken fluency.
B) The mother will encourage the child to practice speaking in the home.
C) The other children will help the child by finishing words and sentences.
D) The mother will correct the child only when other family members are absent.
A
Feedback:
Calling attention to broken fluency can make the situation worse. The child should not be encouraged to speak if he or she does not want to. The parents should intercept any children who desire to finish the child with broken fluency's words or sentences. The child should not be punished or corrected for broken fluency because this is a normal part of speech development.
