The nurse understands that the child is at increased risk for which developmental problem?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Lack of social and emotional readiness for school. The boy's mother's depression and substance abuse can impact his emotional well-being and social development, affecting his ability to form relationships and regulate emotions. This could lead to difficulties in adjusting to the school environment and interacting with peers. Speech and language delays (
