Answer to Question 1

C
Open-ended questions encourage communication. Direct questions with yes or no answers do not encourage conversation. Direct questions that can be interpreted as judgmental do not enhance communication. Asking adolescents about their parents' feelings may block communication.

Answer to Question 2

D
Active listening encourages conversation. Direct questions and close-ended questions can threaten and block communication. Talking about yourself shifts the focus of the conversation away from the child.
