Question 5 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching with the parent of a 15-month-old toddler about nutritional guidelines. Which of the following statements by the parent indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A 15-month-old toddler needs about 500 milligrams of calcium per day to support bone growth and development. Excessive juice does not cause constipation but can reduce appetite for other foods.
Toddlers need approximately 1,000 to 1,300 calories per day, so 1,500-1,800 calories is excessive. There is no specific age-related sudden appetite increase at 18 months.
