A family with a loud, disobedient child has been working with a nurse. Which action observed by the nurse indicates that goals for the diagnosis of impaired parenting have been met?
 
  A.
  The father delivers consequence to the child calmly.
  B.
  The father only asks the child twice not to do something.
  C.
  The mother doesn't cry when disciplining her child.
  D.
  The mother states that the child is still testing the limits.

ANS: A
Consistency in setting and enforcing rules is critical. Consequences should be delivered immediately, without anger, and consistently. The father's disciplining the child without getting mad is demonstrating that goals have been (or are being) met. The other options do not show consistent, calm, immediate consequences.

Bravo this is awesome
