Feedback:
To promote personal safety in the preschool-age child, the nurse should instruct families to explain the role and purpose of police to the child and teach to never talk to or accept a ride from a stranger. Reducing the intake of fast-food items will help with weight control. Limiting exposure to household chores has no identified value. Chewing food thoroughly before swallowing can help with digestion and weight control.
