Unit 5: Parent-Child Relationships

Question 8 • FL-8500300-Parenting Skills (IS) - Flex

Devin wants to talk to his children about his recent loss of employment. What should Devin be aware of when communicating this situation to his children?

Answer
A
Parents need to keep in mind the age and comprehension skills of their children.
B
It can be harmful for parents to express their own feelings about the situation.
C
Choosing a loud, public place to talk may help children open up about their feelings.
D
Children should not be given a chance to express how they are feeling about the situation.

Explanation

Devin should tailor what he says to his children’s ages and ability to understand. Younger children may need simpler, reassuring explanations, while older children may be ready for more detail. Parents can also share their feelings in an appropriate way and invite children to express theirs, so choices B and D are not good guidance; a quiet, private setting is generally preferable to a loud public place.
