5. Your parents call you to criticize you for not staying in touch. They say they want you to come home more often and call a couple of times each week. You are very involved in the campus scene and don’t want to be running home all the time. In this situation, you would be most likely to

a. tell your parents they are creating a problem when none really exists.

b. agree that you haven’t stayed in touch and promise to be better in the future; then follow through on your promise even though it isn’t your preference.

c. tell your parents that you want to work with them to come up with ways you can stay in better touch without separating you from the campus too much.

d. hang up the phone and not return their calls in the future.
