Answer to Question 1

A
Authoritarian parents are oriented toward shaping, controlling, and restricting the adolescent to fixed standards. Obedience is seen as a virtue, and power and responsibility are not shared with the adolescent. Traditional parents value a sense of continuity and order. Democratic parents do not believe that their standards are always right. Permissive is not a parenting style identified in the textbook.

Answer to Question 2

D
The patient in this option shows self-awareness and commitment to change, whereas the remarks of the others express only self-awareness.
