A nurse is collecting a health history from the guardian of a 4year old child. Which of the following statements by the guardian is the priority for the nurse to address?

A) I have a difficult time getting my child to eat green vegetables: While it’s common for preschoolers to be selective about food, especially vegetables, this issue does not represent an immediate concern for the child’s health or development. This issue can often be addressed with strategies to encourage healthy eating, but it is not as urgent as other concerns. B) My child continually asks me the same questions: Repetitive questioning is a normal part of preschool development, as children at this age are curious and often seek reassurance. It reflects their cognitive development as they try to understand the world around them. While it may be tiring for the guardian, it is not an immediate concern. C) My child still wets the bed at least two times per week: Bedwetting (enuresis) is common among preschool-aged children, and many children do not gain full bladder control until after age 5. This issue is typically addressed if it continues past the age of 5, but it is not a priority at this time. D) I have noticed that my child is withdrawn since we switched day care providers: This statement indicates a potential emotional or behavioral issue that requires immediate attention. Changes in behavior, such as withdrawal, can be a sign of stress, anxiety, or difficulty adjusting to a new environment. The nurse should prioritize this concern, as it may indicate that the child is having difficulty coping with the transition and may need additional support or evaluation. Addressing emotional well-being is a priority for the nurse.
