Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Taking a chore away from the child for a week is an excellent way to reward her for positive behavior. Unplugging the DVD player and assigning an extra chore are examples of negative reinforcement. Ignoring her until she uses good manners is an example of extinction.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Both parents should tell the child about the divorce together, using appropriate terms. The other responses are unacceptable behaviors for the mother, such as competing with the spouse and using the child as a confidant.
