A 15-year-old boy being successfully treated for Tourette's syndrome tells the nurse, “I'm not going to take this medication anymore. Anyone who is really my friend will accept me as I am, tics and all!” The nurse should tell the client:

3. “Let's talk about what brought you into treatment and why you now want to stop taking medication.”
4. “I think that is a very unwise decision, but you're entitled to do whatever you wish.”
