Question

The mother of a pregnant teenager asks the nurse how her daughter could have been so foolish because birth control had been discussed with her many times. Which statement by the nurse is most appropriate? 1 "Apparently your daughter wasn't listening to you." 2 "You should have made sure that her boyfriend understood birth control, too." 3 "Teenagers often fail to use birth control because they forget to discuss it with their sexual partners." 4 "Although teenagers can intellectually discuss birth control, they often don't believe that they will become pregnant."

Answer 1

4 - Although teenagers can intellectally discuss birth control, they often don't believe that they will become pregnant

Teenagers believe themselves to be infalliable and that nothing bad can happen to them (they can't get hurt or in this case pregnant) which leads them to make foolish choices.
