Max storms into the room. "I left my math book at Dad's house again Friday, and I don't have it today! I hate it that my parents got divorced and that I have to live sometimes with Mom and sometimes with Dad! It gets me all messed up and I forget things. I wish things could just go back to the way they used to be!" An effective empathic response in this case would be
a. "Oh, Max. Don't come in here with such a negative attitude…it spills over onto all the rest of us and makes us feel bad.".
b. "You're going to have to try harder to remember your book.".
c. "Oh, you poor thing. I know how sad it is when a family structure changes. In fact, my parents got divorced, too.".
d. "I know it's hard to get used to the change, but I'm confident that you can do it. Would you like to talk about ways you can get around this problem?"
