Question

Management at Work

Answer 1

Answer:

If only one option allowed then;

• C. Give your children age-appropriate but honest information about your family's situation, such as "Jesse is very sick," and "We will need to move soon."

If more than one option allowed then include;

• A. Spend as much time as possible with your children so they have plenty of opportunities to ask you questions.

Explanation:

These are very hard and difficult times for your family and it becomes necessary that the children are not left in the dark. There comes a time when children must grow up and for some that time comes quite earlier than for others when times like these arise.

Given your current situation, the children being the dark can only serve to fragment the family. It is best that they know what is happening. As they are children you cannot explain things to them the way you would an adult.

You must therefore explain things to them in a way that they can understand. A way that portrays the gravity of the situation but not a way that paints too grim a picture of things yet to come. You must give them age-appropriate but honest information about your family's situation, such as "Jesse is very sick," and "We will need to move soon."

Another thing you must do is to spend as much time with them as you can afford because you will obviously need to look around for opportunities. During this time you will need to answer as many of their questions as possible because confused children can only make things worse as they may resent you for a change in lifestyle if they do not know what spurred it. Again, the answers must be age-appropriate.
