What this question is testing
Objective: Identify safe nutrition practices for infants
Prompt focus: A nurse is teaching the parent of a 4 month old infant about nutrition. Which statement by the parent indicates the need for further teaching?
Why the correct answer works
I can add a small amount of honey to soothe my baby
Correct. Honey should not be given before 12 months because of the risk of infant botulism, so this statement needs correction.
Why the tempting wrong answer fails
The tempting wrong answer usually loses because it skips the key condition, priority, or evidence in the prompt.
Plain-language takeaway
Honey is contraindicated in infants younger than 12 months due to the risk of infant botulism. Other statements reflect accurate infant feeding guidance.
Simple analogy
