Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

 Evidence also exists that inconsistent supervision can promote delinquency. Early research by Nye found that mothers who threatened discipline but failed to carry it out were more likely to have delinquent children than those who were consistent in their discipline.
 Nye's early efforts have been supported by research showing a strong association between ineffective or negligent supervision and a child's involvement in delinquency.
 The data show that youths who believe their parents care little about their activities are more likely to engage in criminal acts than those who believe their actions will be closely monitored.
 Youths who are not closely supervised spend more time out in the community with their friends and are more likely to get into trouble. Poorly supervised youths may be more prone to acting impulsively and are therefore less able to employ self-control to restrain their activities.
