The parent and/or family situation that most likely offers a sense of security for the preschooler in the home environment would be:
1. Parents and grandparents who live in the same household and share the care of the preschooler.
2. Families who yell with each other but then have a "group hug" to end the disagreement.
3. Parents who tell the toddler "no" firmly every time the toddler does something inappropriate.
4. Parents who handle stress well.
4
Rationale:
1. While many families have extended family members (grandparents) living in the same household, this is not necessary to achieve a secure home environment.
2. Families who yell and then do a "group hug" are giving confusing messages to the children in the home.
3. Constantly telling a toddler "no" reinforces negativity, and is not a recommended method for working with toddlers.
4. Parents who handle stress well set the tone of the household and offer the child a sense of security in the home environment.
