You have diagnosed a 7-year-old client with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Considering he is the third of four children, each of whom has had a similar diagnosis. What can you expect from the parental and sibling units?
  1. Less consideration as a disorder and more consideration as a way of coming together
  2. A renewed sense of importance around the disorder
  3. An overwhelming sense of failure on behalf of the whole family
  4. Any of these
Explanation
Answer - D - You might see any of these as you continue to work with them. It is important to continue holding a non-judgmental space for them and reinforce the positive decisions they are making to help their children and family members cope. They may also take up the cause for the disorder with even more passion than before, since they may see a place where they can help as a unit.
