    • Deep breathing

    • Self-Talk

    • Visualization

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    Deep breathing, self-talk, and visualization are all tools for self-awareness for children. Deep breathing helps children to calm their minds and focus on their emotions and thoughts. Self-talk involves teaching children to be aware of their internal dialogue and to replace negative thoughts with positive ones.

    • Modeling the desired behavior

    • Rules

    • Time out

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above
    Explanation
    The answer "All of the above" is correct because effective methods of discipline include modeling the desired behavior, setting rules, and implementing time outs. Modeling the desired behavior involves demonstrating the appropriate actions and attitudes for children to follow. Setting rules establishes clear expectations and boundaries for behavior. Time outs are a disciplinary technique that involves removing a child from a situation or activity for a short period of time to help them calm down and reflect on their actions. Therefore, all these methods contribute to effective discipline.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Abused children may not have experienced healthy boundaries in their own lives, which can lead to a lack of understanding that boundaries of other children should also be respected.

    Children are often reassured by physical boundaries and physical consistency. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Children are often reassured by physical boundaries and physical consistency because they provide a sense of security and predictability. Physical boundaries, such as fences or gates, establish clear limits and help children understand what is expected of them. Physical consistency, such as consistent routines or environments, allows children to feel more in control and reduces anxiety. These physical elements create a stable and structured environment that promotes a sense of safety and comfort for children.

    Foster families are not required to have a written fire evacuation plan. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Foster families are required to have a written fire evacuation plan. This is important for the safety and well-being of the children in their care. A fire evacuation plan ensures that everyone in the household knows what to do in case of a fire emergency, including the designated meeting point outside the house. It also helps to prevent panic and confusion during such situations, allowing for a more organized and efficient evacuation. Therefore, it is necessary for foster families to have a written fire evacuation plan.

    Establishing expectations for children does not provide them with a purpose and structure for maintaining their self-control. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Establishing expectations for children does provide them with a purpose and structure for maintaining their self-control.

This provides them with a sense of purpose and helps them understand the boundaries and guidelines they need to follow. Having these expectations also helps children develop self-discipline and self-control as they learn to regulate their behavior within the established expectations. Therefore, the statement that establishing expectations for children does not provide them with a purpose and structure for maintaining their self-control is false.
