Your patient is an eight-year-old male child who is extremely active and not doing well in school. After several visits and using the Conners CBRS, you diagnosed him with ADHD. His parents are divorced, and the father attends with the mother and is against medication but would like to talk about cognitive-behavioral approaches prior to starting medication. What is your approach with this child and his parents? What options would you present and why? If they agreed on a medication but later wanted to try the cognitive-behavioral approach to wean the child off of medication, what types of linear plan would you form, who would you involve in this plan, and how long would you expect this plan to be in place in order to show long-term improvements?Â

You have a 17-year-old female that comes in with suspected pregnancy and limited family support. She is accompanied by her 18-year-old boyfriend who is the father of the child. While knowing she needs prenatal care, what resources and education would you try to provide and how would you encourage compliance in this vulnerable patient? What are some of the biggest risk factors that this patient faces and how can you provide quality care while being sensitive to the stigma that comes with teen pregnancy?Â
