a. Helps the new parents identify resources
b. Recommends employing babysitters frequently
c. Tells the parents about the realities of parenthood
d. Offers a home phone number and tells parents to call if they have a question


ANS: A
Available resources within the community can assist the parents in role transition. Some parents may not be able to afford babysitters. Also, this removes them from the parenthood role. Each adult sees parenthood in a different light. They cannot be compared. Searching out resources for the parents is an important task. However, the nurse should not give her personal number to clients.
