CRITICAL THINKING CARE STUDY
Calvin Saunders is a 4-year-old who lives with his single mom and 6-year-old brother, David.
Calvin stays with his grandmother 2 days a week and with his father 3 days a week because his
mother works full-time in a local grocery store. His BMI is 27 (overweight).
Questions:
1. At preschool, Calvin pushes and shoves other children rather than plays well within them.
What suggestion could you make to his mother to improve his social relationships?
2. 2. Calvin speaks with broken fluency. His mother jokes, "If he yelled 'fire', we'd all burn to
death before we understood him." She saw a movie where a king learned not to stutter by
singing so, although it's expensive, she has enrolled Calvin in a boy's chorus. Is this her best
approach to helping Calvin speak clearly?
3. 3. Calvin's mother doesn't supervise Calvin or his older brother while they warm up snacks in
the microwave. Is Calvin mature enough to do this independently?
