单项选择题
A mother complains to the nurse that her 4-year-old son often lies. What’s the nurse’s best response（）
A. Let the child know that he’ll be punished for lying.
B. Ask him why he isn’t telling the truth.
C. It’s probably due to his vivid imagination and creativity.
D. Acknowledge him by saying, "That’s a pretend story. "
答案
参考答案：D
解析：
It’s important to acknowledge the child’s imagination, while also letting him know in a nice way that what he has said isn’t real. Punishment isn’t appropriate for a 4-year-old child using his imagination, and accusing him of lying is a negative reinforcement. The child isn’t truly lying in the adult sense. Imagination and creativity need to be acknowledged.
