s to go to bed. Jane is furious and refuses to speak to him. In response, he merely goes to their room and sleeps. Scenario 2: Aiden comes in from work. Jane cooked dinner and is waiting for him so they could eat. However, Aiden is tired and just wants to go to bed. Jane is furious and tells him how she feels whenever he does this to her. Aiden empathizes with Jane’s feelings and offers a compromise; the next time he would be in late for dinner, he promises to call ahead of time. In the supportive scenario, what do Aiden and Jane do in order to alleviate the conflict? a. They asked open ended questions. b. They strove to promote equality. c. List all problems and annoyances. d. They empathized with each other.
The correct answer is c. List all problems and annoyances.
Explanation:
In the given scenario, letter A is incorrect since questions were not asked at all. Letter B is also incorrect since there is no equality being looked for; unless it refers to dividing tasks, which is not specified in the question. Letter D is also incorrect since the information is not enough to know if Jane had empathized with Aiden, even though he had done it. C is correct because they both list their problems and annoyances: Jane mentioned how she felt whenever the situation happened and Aiden explained why he had arrived late and his reasons for not eating dinner. The situation also suggests a compromise from his part.
