An 11-year-old says, My parents dont like me. They call me stupid and say they wish I were never born. It doesn't matter what they think because I already know Im dumb. Which nursing diagnosis applies to this child?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The child has indicated a belief in being too dumb to learn. The child receives negative and demeaning feedback from the parents. The child has internalized these messages, resulting in a low self-esteem. Deficient knowledge refers to knowledge of health care measures. Disturbed personal identity refers to an alteration in the ability to distinguish between self and non-self. Grieving may apply, but a specific loss is not evident in the scenario. Low self-esteem is more relevant to the childs statements.
