Answer to Question 1

Children, and adults as well, will close off communication that is incomprehensible, threatening, vague, or rude. Although sometimes we may feel justified in lecturing or lashing out, there is no value in conveying a message if the message is rejected. Our goal is to have messages accepted and acted upon.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
