At recess the girls are trying to decide on the rules of a game involving a ball. In the middle of discussion the boys get mad and Terrance grabs the ball out of Judy's hand and throws it to Mike who runs with it. He shouts, "You girls are too slow." In the middle of play the boys yell out rules and chase each other. Judy runs to the teacher and complains loudly that the boys don't play fair
What would be the best response for the teacher to make while trying to educate Judy on communication styles?
a. "Boys just like to scare girls and be the boss."
b. "You girls took too long to make a decision so the boys had every right to take the ball."
c. "Boys and girls are different when they play games. Boys like to get the game started and make up rules then. It doesn't matter to them if everyone agrees like girls do."
d. "I will make Mike and Terrance stay in during recess tomorrow."
C
Correct Answer: "Boys and girls are different when they play games. Boys like to get the game started and make up rules then. It doesn't matter to them if everyone agrees like girls do."
