During a high school class on substance abuse, a student tells the group, "If I tried cocaine, I know I could handle it. I know when to stop." Which response is best for the nurse to provide?
Explanation & Rationale
A) While true, emphasizing the potential for overdose may not be as effective in dissuading the student from experimentation. B) While accurate, discussing the broader impact of addiction may not directly address the student's belief in their ability to control cocaine use. C) While denial is a common response to addiction, directly confronting the student's belief may be more effective in this scenario. D) This response challenges the student's belief in their ability to control cocaine use by highlighting the impairing effects of the drug on decision-making, potentially leading to a more impactful conversation about the risks of substance abuse.
