The client tells the nurse, 'My father is furious with me. He does not want me to ride a motorcycle.' Which response by the nurse is most appropriate?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
Acknowledging the client's frustration validates their feelings without judgment, fostering therapeutic communication. The other responses either dismiss the client's emotions or impose the nurse's opinion, which is inappropriate.
