A nurse is speaking with the parents of a 4-year-old boy who has a cerebral palsy. The parents tell the nurse they have taken their son's name off the list for baseball next season. Which of the following is the BEST response for the nurse to make?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "Would you like to talk about your decision and discuss alternatives?" This response shows empathy, understanding, and a willingness to support the parents. It opens up a dialogue to explore the reasons behind their decision and helps identify potential alternative activities for their son. It also demonstrates a patient-centered approach, acknowledging the parents' autonomy in decision-making.
Choice A is incorrect because it assumes baseball cannot be adapted, which may not be true.
Choice B suggests a different activity without addressing the parents' concerns.
Choice D is incorrect as it assumes the boy's emotions without confirming them.
