the binuclear family. 2. the extended family.
3. the single-parent family.
4. the traditional nuclear family
Answer:3
Rationale: The single-parent family most typically lacks social,emotional,and financial resources.Nursing considerations for such families should include referrals to options that will enable the parent to fulfill work commitments while providing the child with access to resources that can support the child's growth and development. The binuclear family,the extended family,and the traditional nuclear family generally have at least two adults who can share in the care and the nurturing of its children.
