B Correct: The nurse is most likely to talk with the family of a child with a chronic condition about scheduling respite care as a solution to their being overwhelmed with the care and in need of a periodic break from the care. Respite care involves having a person relieve the usual caregiver of caregiving responsibilities for a period of time.

D Incorrect: The nurse is not most likely to talk with the family of a child with a chronic condition about getting a babysitter as a solution to their being overwhelmed with the care and in need of a periodic break from the care. Some children with a chronic illness require too complex a level of care for a babysitter.
