"We will use a booster seat until our child is tall enough for the seatbelt to fit properly."
"Once transitioned into a booster seat, we will allow our child to ride in the front seat of the car."
"We will ensure our child wears a helmet while riding a bicycle."
"We will teach our child to avoid running into the street without looking."
The Correct Answer is B
A. Using a booster seat until the child reaches the appropriate height for a seatbelt is correct and aligns with safety guidelines for child passengers.

C. Ensuring that the child wears a helmet while riding a bicycle is an important safety measure and demonstrates understanding of injury prevention.
D. Teaching the child to avoid running into the street without looking shows awareness of pedestrian safety and the need for supervision and education about traffic safety.

Explanation
A. Cyanosis of the lips and tongue is not a typical finding in coarctation of the aorta; rather, it is more associated with cyanotic congenital heart defects.
B. Weak or absent femoral pulses are expected due to reduced blood flow to the lower body, as the coarctation typically occurs distal to the left subclavian artery.
C. Bounding pulses in the upper extremities are common because the blood flow to the upper body is increased, leading to stronger pulses.
D. High blood pressure in the lower extremities is not typical; instead, there is often lower blood pressure in the lower body due to the obstruction.
E. Poor feeding and irritability are common symptoms in infants with heart conditions, as they may be in distress or not getting enough blood flow to meet their metabolic needs.
