Question 1 of 5

During a substance abuse class at an elementary school, a student says, 'My Dad used to drink one beer a day. Now he drinks at least a six-pack every day.' What does this child's description of the father indicate?

A. The parent's judgment is likely too impaired to provide care for the child. B. Since the parent is increasing his alcohol intake, it is likely that he will soon begin using other addicting drugs. C. The parent is exhibiting tolerance to alcohol and must increase the amount to achieve the desired effect. D. The child is denying that there is a problem of alcohol abuse in the family.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The increase from one beer to a six-pack daily suggests tolerance, where the parent needs more alcohol to achieve the same effect, a hallmark of developing alcohol dependency.
