    A spouse brings the children in to visit their mother in the hospital. The nurse asks how the family is doing. The husband states, "None of her jobs are getting done, and I don't do those jobs, so the house and the kids are falling apart." How will the nurse interpret this finding?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. A flexible family structure would indicate that roles and responsibilities can shift easily, but the husband's statement reflects a rigid view of family roles. B. Resilience refers to the family's ability to adapt and overcome challenges, which does not align with the husband's statement of feeling overwhelmed. C. A hardy family would be strong and able to withstand stress, which does not reflect the husband's frustration with the situation. D. A rigid family structure is characterized by inflexible roles and responsibilities, as indicated by the husband's refusal to take on certain tasks.
