Explanation:
1. This information does not help clients understand their options or make decisions.
2. Because not all clients will be having boys, this statement is only helpful to those clients who give birth to males and see a healthcare provider who recommends circumcision. This statement is too narrowly focused to be helpful to all clients.
3. This statement is the most important. The nurse should inform clients what their options are, including the types of healthcare providers available.
4. This statement is too vague to facilitate decision making by the couple.
