Question 1 of 5
A nurse is screening children and adolescents for exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Which of the following clients is considered to have experienced an ACE?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because having a parent in prison is considered an adverse childhood experience (ACE) due to the potential negative impact on the child's well-being, such as emotional distress, stigma, financial instability, and disrupted family dynamics. This situation can lead to increased stress, trauma, and various social challenges for the child.
Explanation for other choices:
A: A 6-year-old upset about not having a dog is a common childhood disappointment but not necessarily indicative of an ACE.
B: Failing a test is a normal academic challenge and does not qualify as an ACE.
C: Forgetting lunch is a minor inconvenience and not classified as an ACE.
In summary, choice D is the correct answer as it aligns with the criteria of an adverse childhood experience, while the other choices do not meet the criteria for ACEs.
