Carol, a nurse in a family medicine outpatient clinic, conducts initial interviews when new families are referred. She has just finished interviewing a mother who has come to the clinic with her three children, ages 5, 7, and 11. The mother says to the oldest child, 'You have been such a help to me, playing with your brothers while I talk to the nurse.'

- A. Family climate
- B. Family members’ expectations
- C. Handling differences
- D. Self-concept reinforcement
Correct Answer: D

This type of positive reinforcement can boost the child's self-esteem and self-worth. It also indicates that the mother values and appreciates the child's role in the family dynamic, which can have a positive impact on the child's self-perception and confidence.
A: Family climate - While the mother's statement may reflect a positive family climate, the focus is more on individual behavior and self-concept reinforcement.
B: Family members’ expectations - The statement does not directly relate to expectations but rather acknowledges the child's helpful behavior.
