When 2-year-old Sabrina does not comply with requests, her mother tells her that she is not acting like a good girl and that Sabrina's father and sisters will be disappointed

She is told to wait until they come home when she will be punished for her misbehavior. What advice should a counselor give to Sabrina's mother?
a. Even though Sabrina might not like her mother's approach, be consistent with this so that she'll eventually understand and learn to comply.
b. Do not tell Sabrina that her older sisters will be disappointed with her because this causes sibling rivalry.
c. Any consequence for misbehavior should be immediate, because Sabrina is too young to understand cause and effect when the consequences are so delayed.
d. It is better to take some action that is more concrete, such as spanking Sabrina for misbehavior.
