Which of the following statements made by an older-adult client poses the greatest concern for the nurse conducting an assessment regarding the client's adjustment to the aging process?
 
  1. I use to enjoy dancing and jogging so much, but now I have arthritis in my knees so that it's hard to even walk.
  2. I've given my grandchildren money for college so they can live a better life than I had.
  3. Growing old certainly presents all sorts of challenges. I wish I knew then what I know now.
  4. As I age I've found its harder to do the things I love doing, but I guess it will all be over soon enough.

This option does reflect regret regarding life situations, but it does not present the seriousness of other available options. This option does reflect regret over the perceived changes, but it does not present the seriousness of other available options.
