The mother of a late school-age female client voices concern to the nurse regarding her daughter's breast development and breast tenderness. Which response by the nurse is the most appropriate to the client's mother?
1. "I understand your concern. Your daughter is very young for breasts to be developing. Children this age are not equipped to deal with these changes."
2. "I will let her primary care provider know that an exam is necessary due to your daughter's symptoms."
3. "I wouldn't worry about it unless the tenderness continues or worsens."
4. "Breast enlargement and tenderness is common for children of this age, but I will inform her primary care provider of your concerns."
Correct Answer: 4
Breast enlargement and tenderness commonly begins with the onset of puberty, which is usually occurs during late school age. Letting the primary care provider know the mother's concerns addresses the worry the mother is experiencing. The other responses do not properly address the mother's concerns.
