Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
All the outcomes show some positive resolution, but the most optimal response is the parents and teen jointly planning the parents' nights out. This shows collaboration, communication, and mutual respect. In the end, everyone's needs are taken into consideration, and the teen will be more willing to adapt the current role to include watching the siblings. Consistent consequences delivered without anger is a hallmark of healthy discipline. The teen is taking responsibility when he or she acknowledges that the forgetting occurs on purpose. The lines of communication are open when the teen is allowed to verbalize feelings.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A strengths-and-problems list requires the family members to list their strengths as well as what each member brings to the group that is positive. The problems list helps the family prioritize problems to work on. By seeing this information in writing, the family members can capitalize on their strengths to work on the problems. It does demonstrate that each family has both strengths and problems, but that is not the main purpose. It does not force families to take responsibility, although it does encourage this. Its purpose is not to point out who has which problems.
