ANS: B
Systems theory looks at boundaries, balance and homeostasis, and subsystems. An important concern in the family whose member is diagnosed with a mental illness is social isolation, which is related to boundaries. Some families view mental illness as shameful and try to keep the information secret. The nurse should work to ensure the family understands the importance of healthy interaction with outside systems. Children's ages would be assessed using developmental theories.
