Answer:

B). Richters'

Explanation:

Apostrophe is elucidated as the punctuation mark (') that is employed to either signal the omission of letters or show possession. In case of a singular noun, the apostrophe is put after the noun with letter s to show possession(Mary's book) while in a plural possessive case, the apostrophe(') is put after the s(Bats' handles). As per this rule, the correct form would be Richters' as it correctly show a plural possession. Thus, the final interrogative statement reads as:

What is the fastest way to get to the Richters' house?

I am just a year older than you, and I have dealt with all of the bullyings I can handle and more. One thing you can do is be apart of a group instead of putting yourself on your own where it is easier to get targeted. Talk to an adult if it keeps happening. Something I did was talk to everyone in each class (unless you are the same people all day) and evaluate who would be a good friend. If they come off as sweet but show malice to others, avoid them. Also, avoid people who come off as disrespectful to their elders. They will only end up being the one doing something wrong and pinning it on you. message me if you want to talk about any specifics because I can help with tons of situations. if you need someone to vent it to you can talk to me! ;)
