A Incorrect: Ideally the role of the caregiver caring for a child with a chronic condition is not described as staying stable as caregiver. Caregivers need to negotiate with the child regarding then and how to shift responsibility for care to the child. The goal is not for the caregiver to continue giving care to the child forever, but for the child to eventually be able to independently manage the condition.
B Incorrect: Ideally the role of the caregiver caring for a child with a chronic condition is not described as moving from caregiver to careful and systematic observer to behavior modifier.
C Correct: Ideally the role of the caregiver caring for a child with a chronic condition can be described as changing in a planned way from provider to manager to supervisor to consultant. At the same time, the child's role shifts from receiver to co-provider to manager to supervisor, and finally, chief executive officer.
D Incorrect: Ideally the role of the caregiver caring for a child with a chronic condition is not described as a lifelong companion and advocate.
