Parents of school-age boys.
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is developing a health program for the parents of school-age boys. Which of the following information about pubescent changes should the nurse include in the program?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Growth spurts in height occur toward the end of mid-puberty. This is important information for parents to know as it helps them understand the timing of growth spurts in their sons. During mid-puberty, typically around ages 12-14 for boys, there is a rapid increase in height due to growth spurts. This information can prepare parents for the physical changes their sons will experience during this stage.
Choice A is incorrect because the timing of scrotal changes does not determine the onset of puberty.
Choice B is incorrect as changes in the voice (voice cracking) are actually a later sign of puberty.
Choice D is incorrect as gynecomastia, the development of breast tissue in males, usually occurs during early puberty, not late puberty.
