  1. The group's reactions to possible changes that concern their eating habits.
  2. The involvement of the clients' families, especially the food preparers.
  3. The financial status of the clients.
  4. Cultural considerations.
Explanation
Answer: A - When teaching a group of adolescent girls who are pregnant, the doula should mainly consider the involvement of the clients' families, the financial status of the clients and the clients' cultures. Even a client who is receptive to changing her eating habits may have some difficulties if her family resists the changes. In adolescents, it is most important that the food preparers are willing to effect the change. If a client belongs to a low-income group, the client should be helped to secure financial assistance during her pregnancy. Food intake and eating habits are greatly influenced by culture.
