A fifteen-year-old was referred to the adolescent mental health clinic after being arrested for prostitution. The client's parents reported that they have run away several times and are abusive towards them. The nurse should anticipate that the diagnosis will be:

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Conduct Disorder. This diagnosis is appropriate based on the client's behavior of running away, engaging in prostitution, and being abusive towards parents, which are all indicative of conduct disorder.

B) is characterized by defiance and hostility towards authority figures, not necessarily involving running away or engaging in illegal activities like prostitution. Autism Spectrum Disorder (
D) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects social interaction and communication, but it does not explain the client's behavior of running away or engaging in criminal activities.
