Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a pediatric clinic is talking with the mother of a preschool-age child. The mother tells the nurse that her son is a 'picky eater.' Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Add fruit juice to the child's diet to increase vitamin intake. Fruit juice can be a good way to increase a picky eater's intake of essential vitamins and nutrients. Fruit juices are often more appealing to children than whole fruits, making it easier to ensure they get the necessary nutrients. It is important to choose 100% fruit juice with no added sugars.
Choice A is incorrect because emphasizing quantity over quality may lead the child to consume unhealthy foods.
Choice B is incorrect as food consumption may indeed decrease if the child is a picky eater.
Choice D is incorrect as forcing the child to stay at the table after meals can create negative associations with food.
